- Do NOT Judge China before WATCHING THIS... 🇨🇳 Chongqing Opened Our Eyes - One of the best decisions we made on our travels was to visit China. If we were to believe the negative attention China receives, we would never have been able to travel this amazing country. Chongqing has opened our eyes being the largest city in the world with an interesting blend of old and new. We can not wait to explore more.

Don't judge China until you've been there. Experiencing its vibrant cities, rich culture, and impressive infrastructure firsthand will completely change your perspective. Seeing is believing!
I am a Chinese, I hope you return home please pay attention to safety, because your government does not like to see this, please pay attention to safety.
@@user-zb2dl2gf9w Stop threatening them. Why do you have the right to comment on the situation of other countries? I am also Chinese, but I will not threaten others like this.
Don't judge China based on what western media tells you, which has been proven to lie about anything to do with western rivals.
Not only what you have mentioned. Friendly, helpful people, clean and well organized, safe to wander around anywhere.
Best is no beggar begging from tourists, no touting people consistently follow you and asking to be your guide, selling things to you or asking you to go shopping with them then they can scam you. This is China.
@@user-zb2dl2gf9w
中国は世界一素晴らしい国なので日本なんて行かずに中国で新鮮な空気と活気ある中国人の優しさに触れる事ことで至福の時間を過ごせるだろう。
Thank you to the two bloggers for showing the real China to the world. I hope you will visit more cities and have a happy trip!
🥰🥰
Maybe we can make the third season of a Chinese rural series🎉🎉❤❤@@sunkissedbucketlist
为什么要说感谢？中国好不好会因为他们来不来而改变吗？西方媒体会因为他们来不来而改变抹黑造谣中国吗？我想表达的意思是：我是中国人，我们的政府代表我的意志管理国家，政府好不好我有我自己的观点。我为我的选择负责。中国的内政由全体中国人决定。这个政府做不好由中国人民推翻它。
@@user-pg5cj3dl2t 这不是内网，没人为你这种很沙雕的言论喝彩的，人家来宣传中国，让更多的人知道中国的真实的样子，促进旅游业的发展，不知道触动了你哪根粉红色的神经了？
@@user-pg5cj3dl2t友善一点不好吗 戾气这么重是因为生活很不愉快吧？🥺可怜你
Super clean！ Chinese like to eat out. So many food delivery and restaurants. In Australia, people onlu stay at home at night, very few people can afford to eat out, that‘s why no night market anf so few food delivery in Australia.
欧洲和北美也是如此
Careful. They wash the veggies in the toilet and use frying oil taken from the drains.
@@arthurlincoln9093I can tell you have simple brain when you believe it. I have been to China and will go their again for my next holjday. Their foods are much more delicious and their restaurants are cleaner, so many people eat out, not like the American or European who only cook food at home, what an boring lkfe. lol. America uses toxic ingredients for all their foods, that’s why the American has lower life expectancy than the Chinese.

ChongQing--the 8D city of China
Love it 🥰
I could see you two were a little reserved in the first day after you arrived China but now you are so relaxed and open
It’s all about getting used to a new culture and a new country, we absolutely feel at home now 🥰
Don't worry when foreigners are in China. We friendly and civilized Chinese will make you feel comfortable like this is in your own home country even if you don't speak our language. We won't take advantage of foreigners to scam them or racist against them. We want foreigners to go home and never forget about China and Chinese friendly hospitality.
L😊
They seem to be willing to put aside their pride and enjoy themselves because they are receiving rewards from the Communist Party.
These tourists' towns in China with all these little shops actually plays a big role in China's poverty elimination efforts, as recent as a decade ago, these little towns, beautiful as they are, but being remote and hard to get to, had little way of getting people/investment in, or shipping their farm/crafts products out, people there were dirt poor, with little to no opportunities. To bring those people out of poverty, first road and other infrastructures were built, then the government worked with entrepreneur from wealthier regions to develop them into tourists' attractions, and local villagers were trained and hired to run small shops, or given assistance to start small business, income would supplement whatever they little make from farming, some of these tourist's attractions are more successful but some less so, but regardless, those remote areas are now more accessible, and people there now generally have more opportunities.
Isn’t that incredible 🥰
贫是脱了 但原有的独特气质也不复存在
@@knoxdeep Starve or escape poverty in order to maintain traditional culture? I choose the latter.
@@dearpope Five thousand years culture. I think China's safe.

👍🏻😊
just look the blue beautiful sky , sky don't lie
Street is so clean even with that much crowd, amazing.
partly attributable to the hard working sanitation workers. A big salute to them.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
So glad you got to see a fast changing mask performance. That is special to Sichuan.
Yes it was great!! 😊
Unfortunately, regardless of what you show, and what others also show, it is not enough for arrogant politicians to continually spew venom against China, last on the list is the Republican representative from Iowa who uttered words that give the size of the nastiness and arrogance of the American political establishment, but fortunately there are also people like the mayor of San Francisco who go against the current of what is common American thinking! Americans and Europeans, I am talking about politicians, are frustrated, because they realise that all the lies they tell have no hold on people like you, and thank you🙏 for what you show, go to China to see for themselves whether all the nastiness of Western politicians is justified.
选举制度的一个缺陷：他们必须制造仇恨， 因为仇恨是最高效和廉价的选举工具
Happily, more and more Westerners visit China. They see the opposite of what their officials and their media feed them daily. Truth always prevails.
It is not government, it is media.
Under the system in China, media can't have the power they want to have, that is, controlling public information and controlling people's minds.
That is why no matter what China has done, according to *ALL the media* in the world, _including the media in China,_ *unanimously,* China is hell... to them, NOT the people.
You know why they hate Trump so much? because Trump jeopardized their power. You see that they can't control the minds of 50% of Americans.
Every Chinese city is remarkably safe, friendly, and clean. The unique charm of each city lies in its local food, history, and culture, offering a distinct experience wherever you go. Trust me, I've traveled to over a hundred cities in China, and each one has its own special story to tell and flavors to savor.
😂
I come from Chongqing, and it's amazing to see this lovely couple visiting my hometown while I'm in London, England.
常回家看看。
The quality of this video is amazingly sharp.
🤩🤩
China is very big. There are many beautiful cities
yes, and difference cities have distinctive style and special food.
And plenty of nature if you leave the cities. 😉
Absolutely 👍🏻
@@Gamerzombiepro1 Nonsense! Most Chinese don't eat these things. By the way, these things are eaten in other countries as well, but again, by a select few.
@@Gamerzombiepro1 Western media is crap. Come to China and see for yourself.
Thanks for a great video. Isn't China just the most amazing country in the whole world? And people are so friendly. I was apprehensive before it first visited too (although kept an open mind) but am a total convert now. I first visited in the 1990s and have seen the bicycle to EV transformation. They really got it figured out.
Yes, it is, alongside North Korea, the most hated great country in the world.
Thank you for all your hard work, time and money to make these videos for us that aren't fortunate enough to travel. Your videos make me want to visit China!
Thank you very much!
Wow! ❤👍👍👍👍We have nothing like this in Canada, a G7 country.
You have Tim Hortons however 😂
Whistler in Canada is somewhat like this and also breathtakingly beautiful, but probably not as happening and folksy, and much much more expensive. Id say G7 is heaven for billionaries, but for middle class folks, not that many choices of affordable outtings.
China has many ways of cooking duck. If you have the chance to visit Guangzhou, try the local Cantonese roast duck; it's very delicious.
Share all these videos with friends and family, ignorance on China can be stopped by visiting this country, I was first there in 2012 and got de-brainwashed very quickly
I'm glad to you are very like China， welcome to China， as a Chinese， I'm study in Europe， and i have to see your video to miss my hometown.
Thank you! 😃
Highly reccomend LiJiang of Yunnan province for your next stop, which is also an "old town" with more sceneries and ethnic cultures, also will be paradise for foodies like you two.😄
Thanks 🤩
@@sunkissedbucketlist Go to Dali first! It's on the way to Lijiang and the evenings are so nice and active with nightlife.
重庆是很美的城市❤🎉
We love Chongqing 😊
Some foreign friends are surprised by China's urban construction and street cleanliness. If they have the opportunity to visit some towns and villages, they will find more surprises because China's construction is not only in big cities, but also in remote rural areas.
Wow 😮
@@sunkissedbucketlist In 2006, China started the construction of a new rural plan, and in 2013, China upgraded the construction of a new rural plan to the "construction of beautiful villages"plan.
@7:45 - USD$500 billion in live stream sales for 2023 in China
🤯🤯🤯🤯
This is a combination of logistics, the Internet, and live streaming. Not only do small businesses gain a channel to promote and sell their products, but villagers can now sell their village specialties on stream. This has helped many families and villages survive in the difficult times.
Does China have the freedom to move capital abroad? Very interesting.😂
China is so clean, it's amazing!
Yes, air pollution is Western propaganda.🎉
You can be high in the mountains, and the Chinese will have built an escalator there. Does it ruin the authenticity? Yes it does. Do I want an escalator there? Yes I do.
'cause my fat ass sure isn't gonna climb all the way up there.
Escalators make life better for sure haha 😅
You should try 5 minutes and 22 seconds in the video.Modern China Tea Shop 茶颜悦色
It's there doesn't mean you have to use it. If you wanna hike you can. No one will stop.
😂😂 Totally agree
@@DNMD1224Yep. It is said that that brand is the top class among beverage brands in china, although it costs a bit expensive. Someone has paid for more than 200RMB to get its takeaway in other city.
Mixue should sponsor you, you give them such long advertising time every time.
someone needs to tell them to contact us already lol 😂
@@sunkissedbucketlist Some people put your videos on Chinese Tik Tok with chinese subtitles. Now Many Chinese people know you guys on CN Tik Tok. I think Mixue can see you guys one day!
蜜雪打钱，，还有ROGER MOOR，现在又多了一个烤鸭，，
Change face so many times in minutes! Fantastic 😮
Amazing 🤩
Welcome to China ❤❤❤
🥰
生きて帰れませんけどおめでとう
Love it and enjoy your trip in China!! I saw you whole China trip vlog on Bilibili…（kindly like chinese youtube）. Many Chinese audiences say that you should become the spokesperson for MIXUE ice cream&tea haha lol. best wishes from beijing
I know Taz and Libby post a video every other day, so I waited on CZcams for this, and it comes!
Another great video!
You're the best! Thank you 🤩
你们在中国开始越来越受欢迎👏啊中国市场非常大，中国有个大湾区，有十二个城市和地区，夜生活，美食天堂，有好多外国友人在那里生活，工作，商务，留学等，遍及湾区等地方，你们夫妻越来越受中国人的欢迎👏啊，加油，我们永远都支持你们哦，
@bingLiu-ql3lb 你赚一个我看看，现在的国人为一的不好就是太酸。
重庆的氛围感太舒服了，一种极其松弛的感觉，磁器口就像乌托邦式的繁华南宋街市，而解放碑又像是怪诞电影中的超现代城市。这些在北京上海都看不到，确实很独特。
松弛腻码。hmp，mmmp骂到你堂客飞起来
素质这东西你是一点没有。
@@user-jr1op4hg1d 人民的才是世界的😊😊
Yes we really enjoy Chongqing so far 🤩
@ 18:35 That close up shot on the Uncle with the special effect. Cracked me the hell up🤣🤣🤣🤣 Good job, Libby.
😂😂😂
Thank you for such a great, fun-filled video on China.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Awesome video. People who don't know China Will like it
China has been an incredible country 🥰
The cable car you're pointing to in the video is on Gele mountain, right next to my school, and Gele mountain is a 4A scenic area.
Oh wow 😮
Hi guys, that was an awesome performance. The duck looks so delicious and I know it was. Take care
Duck in China is always soooo good 🥰🥰
湖南長沙市也要去看看夜生活！張家界，阿凡達場景。😊湖北恩施也很棒！貴州省各地世界上有名的 黃果樹瀑布。懸崖邊飯店啦。50萬人的小區。😂太多的地方等著你們自己去看吧❤
Thanks ☺️
If yours interested the Chinese counture & more I'll suggest try to using languages translator & Word scanner for eazy to understand
Thanks for the suggestion 😀
Proud of you for trying to learn and speak Mandarin! It's not an easy language. But once you learn more, it'll open up your experience in China as you'll be able to to chat to the locals! 😊
20:09 the sign says:
This moment at chongqing.
Must come in your life.
Some other day is which day?
Next time is when?
For how much longer?
Keep passion and meet mountains and seas.
Want to see you
"We just came here for tea" lol
To the courtyard yes 😂
Try milk tea from 霸王茶姬 CHAGEE. Their tea offers delicate flavors and is served in a “fashionable” cup 😊
A yoghurt cow is a national wide franchise, we have it here in Guangdong too so don’t worry about not being able to have it in the future😊 btw tea stores like hey tea, chagee, ah Ma handmade are all really good choices that totally worth a shot🎉
Good to know! Thanks 🤩
So happy to see my hometown in your channel! Actually this ancient town is too commercialized so I won't recommend it to visitors but you bring me new perspectives to see those familiar things to me and it's quite interesting. Thank you! Enjoy your trip!
Ah thanks a lot 😊
Thanks!
Thank you 🤩
@@sunkissedbucketlist You're welcome. Love your channel
Different ethnicity clothes 😊even Chongqing itself have 5-6 sub-ethnicity😊. 😅 That's all I know.
Interesting!
Wow! This was a really nice area to explore! Thank you! Happy travels!
Watching you guys eat, is soooo comforting! You guys are my little sunshine ❤ come back to Beijing in the summer!!
Thank you for your brilliant video. From the UK.
Wow, our lovely Mixue couple! Thank you for another great video!
Thank you ☺️
Come and settle in China. What you have seen is less than one ten thousandth of China . China has a huge land area, and almost all terrains, scenery, different food cultures,technology products, CHINA is worth exploring in a lifetime.
China is not an immigrant country. 1.4B is enough.
就住你家吧
定居？签证是个问题，长期的流量也是个问题，毕竟人家是职业旅游博主。本质都是为了流量，有些话其实不用说的太明白。
China is HUGE haha we will need a lot more time to explore more 🥰
seeing is believing. To see once is BETTER than to hear a thousand times.
Absolutely agree 👍🏻
Thank you for sharing. After watching your videos on Chonging, I've decided that I want to visit the place in autumn.
Have fun! 🤩
Love you guys, you are so lovely, Chongqing and Sichuan are from the same bund, so they share the same culture and food as well. Enjoy the trip there, Chongqing also has many nature resorts, if you have time, good chance to go.
Thanks so much! Chongqing is a really cool city, we’re loving it 🥰
Agree. I just traversed Xinjiang north and, before that, went to Shanghai, Hangzhou, plus a cruise through the three gorges. Awesome.
You guys are so brave to say truth out loudly!!!👍👍👍
Great video！
Wow this time you guys took us to 磁器口 ancient town! What a fascinating place. It's mind boggling indeed. Thanks for sharing this great video that I could even feel the vibes with you guys in there! 😊👍
GREAT WONDERFULL VIDEO 👌🥰
This old city trip is so amazing and really interesting. I want to visit there soon.
You should! 😊
The reason why these ancient places have escalators because of the elderly people/tourists. Most of them might have problem walking up the stairs. Some places have lifts for those on wheelchairs. Chinese is very attention to details when it comes to building infrastructures. They will always think a step ahead. I don’t know if duck/goose is famous in Chongqing but what I know is places like Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hongkong, Macau you will find roasted duck/goose everywhere . You definitely will have lots of duck to eat, don’t worry if you guys will be visiting the South. Anyway enjoy yourselves in Chongqing. Beautiful city. Take care! Cheers!
Thanks so much 😊
Your videos are always so spot-on and pleasant to watch 👍
🥰🥰
I believe the both of you can even create good vibes and excitement in an empty field.👍 That's professionalism for you.
Life is short, glad to see you both enjoy life. Most people who hate others countries culture don't know what they miss. Keep exploring when you can. 😊😊😊😊. You both done a good.😊😊😊
Maybe next time you can go inside Ciqikou, because in the video you just walked around the gate of Ciqikou, there is a narrow old road inside which is Ciqikou in my memory.😀
You guys vlog make me desperately wanna go Chongqing and find my own fancy of it And Ive bought the air ticket so good luck to me！
Wow, I love this town ❤
Thanks for showing beautiful China 🇨🇳
Thanks for watching 😊😊
Mixue couple😀very happy to see the new video，wait for these everyday
Super clean
Hello， I come from Yunnan, China. I very much welcome all international friends to travel to Yunnan and experience the delicious scenery of Yunnan for myself. unfortunately, I can't go home at school and can't entertain in person.
Interesting n fascinating tour of Chongqing one hardly see in travel brochures.
Sadly, Janet, Victoria, Anthony, Donald, David and Joe will never get to see what you guys saw and enjoyed. Thanks again
I was there last month in Ciqikou very nice you, can walk all the way down to the river used to be boat terminal.
Good to know! 😊
Love you two so much❤I have watched every video in your China series. You are always full of energy in your videos, so friendly and objective, and so different from those who are full of prejudice against China. I really hope you can stay in China for a longer time. There are still many places worth exploring. Finally, I wish you both good health and all the best!
That’s so kind, thank you 🤩
美好愉快的一天！谢谢分享！
Such ornate buildings! That square you walked into reminds me a little of Nepal. Love that you stumbled on some local story telling - great to immerse yourselves fully in the culture.
We loved our time here 🥰
I just love the vibe and the clean huang
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
First went to Chongqing in 2016, I was blown away by everything from the topography to the Hotpot, lived there for 6 months and only recently went back, can't wait to go back! Hope you guys try some proper Chongqing hotpot!
Very nice video!
Thank you very much!

Thank you ☺️
OMG. I just love watching your vlog of your trip in China. Love your accent and the dynamic feel from your video. China is so big and has so many people yet very safe and peaceful. I guess it is hard to get bored in China. I am in the U.S. and get the same boring things every day and every where. Plus the politics and fightings and conflicts with other countries just make the U.S. less and less favorable and attractive. You guys are lucky to have all the free time and spend time in a country that is safe, fun and lots lots good food to eat and lots lots places to see and most of all safe and affordable for the quality of life. You guys are nice couple to travel with.
I like you both Mixue Couple , always exploring the world with passion.
😊😊😊
Fair and Objective. Welcome to China.
Hey some quick Chinese lesson! At 25:10 on the giant red plaque in gold lettering, 龍行龘龘, is a phrase that got chic just this year. Notice that each of the last two characters 龘 is made up of 3 (yes THREE!) of the first one 龍. 龍 means Chinese dragon, nowadays simplified as 龙, and 龘 means the way dragons move or fly but somehow this character never got simplified. 龍行龘龘, spelled as Long2 Xing2 Da2 Da2, literally means that 'dragons soar just like so', and in the Year of the Dragon, a generic goodwill wish that everything is looking up and works out as it should be. I consider myself a well-educated man, well in my forties and I never knew the word 龘. Until, China's central TV station popularized it at the New Year Gala, and overnight it became a hosehold phrase.
Is any of this useful? Hardly. But try it with your Chinese friends. Expect some jaws to be dropped.
By the way, X- in Chinese is pronounced like something between an S- and an Sh-, but never like a Z-.
Gosh, I could never learn that. My old brain is just not taking it in. What CPU are you guys running on? 😳
That’s super helpful to know and also interesting! Thanks for sharing with us 😊👍🏻
I love your China vlogs
瓷器口（Ci Qi Kou i.e. porcelain mouth) is a must-see in Chongqing. You two are quickly becoming China experts. Please note, these famous dishes we Chinese still eat largely because they are well-known not because they are extremely tasty. They were tasty before when we were poor and hardly had enough to eat, but not any more, and this was one of the reasons why you did not see any other customers in the same restaurant.
Ahh thanks for sharing 👍🏻😊
This is so much fun to watch
Thanks ☺️
Did you guys go to Chengdu’s Panda Post Shop? It’s a working post office with tons of panda design merchandise and panda postcards. You can stamp cute panda stamps on your postcards and letters and then glue on panda postages, and mail them out right there and then!
Each ethnic group in China has different cultures and costumes. It is interesting to go to ancient towns to find different experiences.
Absolutely 👍🏻
I am a Chongqing native and I love your videos😁
Awesome! Thank you!
Love you guys 🎉🎉🎉 Hope you can stay in China longer ❤
Thanks 🤩
The reason for the escalators (and here in Hong Kong also lifts) is because an aging population.
重庆的8D，不怕累，你可以来不用电梯试试，
That makes sense 👍🏻
Like watching your video and loving China thanks
So nice of you thanks 🤩
Lovely Libby and Taz! Once again thank you for sharing.
Next destination Hanzhou for its beautiful lakes and Guangzhou for its food?
Thanks for the suggestions 😊
have a good time!
Wow i am so envious you guys experienced Chongqing! I've heard a lot about the "face changing" performance but i've never seen it in real life. Apparently the craft a very closely guarded secret that's not passed down easily.
