- I am finally driving the legendary G318 Road connecting Shanghai to Lhasa, Tibet. The road is characterized as one of the must stunning roads all over China due to its changing landscapes and high elevation. The peak is at 5130m in altitude before it descends the famous winding road towards Nujiang Canyon.
By coincidence on my way I met a very famous Chinese girl called Xiaxia. She recently became famous for walking from Chonqing to Tibet on foot.
Join me on this stunning adventure through China's most beautiful region 🎬

Daym, Xia Xia is so legendary for walking from Chongqing to Tibet! what a brave and determined girl!
People have hard time just being
Breathing and she is truly brave
Stay Safe, Yan 😍
@@roro4787 I could not breathe in those attitudes. Not even in the state of Colorado. Now if I was born in that state or part of China. Presently I live I SC.
Why did she do that?
60 years ago, 100,000 people built the National Highway 318 by hand, and 4,963 worker died here.
Wow, didn't know so many workers does building this highway. RIP
@@mechannel7046way more Chinese died building railroads in the US
Wooo, that’s a huge sacrifice for connecting the Tibetan plateau with the rest of nation
BE CAREFUL. We are all coming to admire and care for you, and I for one admire you. Not only are you fearless, but you are by far the best ambassador for China on youtube. You may not realize how much your videos are causing people to feel a deep love for your country, but trust me: if you can emotionally move me like this, you are changing hearts and minds (mine didn't need changing b/c I already love China). You are killing it because you are authentic--Humans can smell authenticity like roses in the morning...
Be safe.
Here, here…
I agree. I told Yan, that China is more complex than I thought.
@@jacqueline-fc8wb every country is complex
你真的很勇敢，敢在那样的路上开车，我们喜欢看你开车，我的妻子来自福建省，我们真的很享受你的旅程，一路上请注意安全，祝福你。
猜你不是中国人？你这个评论是机器翻译成的中文吧，看上去总觉得很别扭。
@@rongwu-sj9ws It's the same the other way around🙃😉. As long as we can get our point across, I don't really matter. But for safe's sake I will keep this in English and you may use any program that you want if you need one.
Thanks for showing the beautiful sceneries in mountainous Tibet. You are very brave to drive along congested heavy truck traffic. You met the brave lady who has walked since january to reach her destination in Tibet. Take care in cold snowy highlands.Take a good rest in pretty wooden hotel, stay healthy with God's blessings. 😊❤🌷🐕🙏
Saw many power transmission towers running along the mountain range. Crazy. This is China where the impossible is possible. And the road built beside the rocky cliff at such altitude is beyond human feat. 😮
You weave such wonderful stories and paint such beautiful pictures visually. Thanks for showing us kindness is everywhere...
The dog simply running to you was cute
animals can see the good soul.
Really enjoy your videos, they make me feel as if I am traveling along side of you. i particularly enjoy the drone footage. Thank you
I just came back from G318 trip from Chengdu to Lhasa a month ago. It was a fascinating trip. Very impressive! Stay safe, Yan 🙏🙏🙏
I'm sorry. May I know how did you arrange the trip? As far as I know, foreigners only can go to Lhasa with a group tour. If you went there overland, that means we should have a Tibet travel permit as well?
Superb video and thank you for sharing the spectacular vistas in China. Stay safe on your travels and God bless!
Seeing your bike bouncing around behind those trucks in the dust was crazy! Glad you're safe. Some of those mountain views make the journey worth it though 🤩
It certainly was an adventurous day. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for showing us Tibet. You are the real ambassador for China. Thanks again for your great job❤❤
You take my breath away with your high altitude adventures!
Milé, krásné a velice chytré a inteligentní děvčátko z Číny, srdečně vás pozdravuji a mnohokrát děkuji za další nádherné video. Velký obdiv co vy dokážete, nebojite se žádné cesty, aby jste nám zprostředkovala dech beroucích záběry a díky vám máme možnost poznávat krásu Číny. Moc se opatrujte, hodně zdraví, štěstí a Boží ochrany (děkuji za české titulky) 🌹🍀😍✊🙏🙋🇨🇿
as rough as the infrastructure is, it shows a really impressive dedication to have this kind of infrastructure at all in such an extreme environment
You are so courageous to travel in such difficult terrain and driving situations. What a change in the landscape from some of the lush places you have previously visited. China is so diverse in its geography. Stay safe and healthy Yan. ❤
I love the aerial views that you take from your drone on every trip you make in each town and autonomous region of China 🇨🇳 👍👍👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Absolute adventure. Very scenic route.
Wow what an awesome life you are living! The sceneries are so very beautiful and that bridge looks scary please be careful and take care
Another fantastic adventure for you young lady ...superb viewing once again ! I have to say also that the young 28 year old lady walking her long route is super determined and has such a strong will of mind . She obviously had been well prepared for her exploit and is mightily driven to succeed ..just as you are . Congratulations to everyone .It is compelling entertainment .Safe journeys to you young Yan from Scotland .
Nice show. You're a very brave lady. Thank you.
Hello Yan, another superb video ! It shows that everything can be beautiful whether it is lush green or just bleak wilderness. 72 dangerouus curves and that makes it more challenging for you ! Inspirational ! And Xia Xia….’ I have no goals , I just walk ‘ ..hopefully someone seeks her out and put her journey and thoughts in a book. I have no doubts that she has a lot of simple words but profound thoughts to share. Also at the end of that ‘ just walk ‘ she deserves to rest with sufficient funds. Take care and catch up soon.
This is A Great Video Yan! Many Thanks For All Your Efforts to Show Us This Beautiful Land! You Take Care!!!
Very challenging and beautiful
landscape. The lady you met on way reflects the resilience and grit of locals inhabiting the roof of the world. Thank you for taking us to have a glimpse of the amazing world
Challenging & magnificently beautiful ride! Delighted to be with you, Yan, as you travel this part of Tibet.
看见9:00雪山上的电塔，对我们国家的电力工作者的敬意油然而生。
去过川西很多次，很多高山看着都难以攀爬，都有电塔，不得不佩服我们的电力工作者
Wonderful video. No doubt that your tour of Tibet will be enlightening.
my favorite travel channel! thank you for always sharing and showing the wonders of this world, we love you, sending love from seattle USA!
Thank you Yan for another great video which we would probably never personally see in our lifetime. You are so so BRAVE. Stay safe.
Hi Yan it’s another adventure with you today! You are so courageous to ride behind the trucks and they are spewing carbon monoxide, plus dust! You did well by over taking them one by one 💪 the curvy roads look spectacular from the birds eye view but it’s another to have to ride through it. You take care and rest well ❤
14:39 I saw a documentary on the history of China, and many Maoist soldiers died building that road when China had just been created.
One of your shortest episodes, but also one of your best. I could have watched for an hour, and will be recommending it to everyone I know. I have just Googled the story of Xiaxia, thinking that maybe she was walking for religious reasons, but it turns out that it's for the life experience and reportedly she has now completed her journey. I don't think I could have ridden that route on a scooter, but you have a delicate balance of brave and crazy! Stay safe Yan, we need you on this Earth....
Imagine Yan made this remark at the end of one of her awesome videos : “ TODAY IS A GOOD DAY, AND THAT IS GOOD ENOUGH “ !!! Don’t you want to embrace her and say THANK YOU, YES, A GOOD DAY IS GOOD ENOUGH.
Just looking at the curves is enough to give me motion sickness! also spare a thought to the brave and heroic workers who built the road and continue to maintain it. This is how New China was and is built!
辛苦了Yan。路上特别是超车时千万小心啊，安全最重要。
Greetings. You are a true explorer with a real heart for your country. Every video I watch is like seeing history being made by you. Beautiful productions so professionally made, yet they seem so practical. So glad you could stop and talk to that one woman walking so far. Be careful and safe. You are a real treasure.
it is my hometown ❤
Thank you for the breath-taking views!
Watching fr Kohima, Nagaland Northeast India 😊 Amazing Tibet
I've come to your Channel to lift my spirits after the doom and gloom of the British Elections were making me feel depressed. You are a Tonic and i feel we all love you. 🤗
thanks for showing us your country
Thank you Yan. Enjoy travels.🙏❤️
Thank you for showing all of us the China we could never have imagined without you.
Here you go again..keep safe ..keep happy..keep showing us beautiful unseen China..love you
Amazing landscape. You have showed me how amazing the China landscape is- beautiful diverse culture & amazing landscape. As a hiker, i love watching the mountain passes and regions!
Yeah, thanks for bringing us along...
Those roads look so very scary. Glad you made it safely
Ha! Another text I had to add. Your drone films are stunning and the music makes you feel like flying over the land. Such a beautiful country.
Menina que jornada intensa . Aquela menina que você encontrou tem uma jornada triste; mas, ela se diz estar bem . Este último quarto de hotel é lindo. Bom caminho amanhã .
Ela é corajosa.
such a nice and challenging trip you made and admire your courage looking for forward to see the
continuation of this journey take care and stay safe
意犹未尽，狗狗也太可爱了，暂停倒回去看了两次🤩 车多路险，注意安全～
Incredible. Thank you so much for taking us to these amazing places. You are a great videographer and storyteller.
Scary roads! Spectacular scenery. So little greenery.
More best in videos. Thank you!
Buenas como va espero que genial bendicion para ti y todos los que tu quieres, que paisajes más fenomenales, con el Drone nuevo y sus capacidades más evolucionadas, se nota la diferencia, gracias por mostrar la naturaleza de china y alrededores, que Dios te bendiga y proteja,Jan JieJie 🎉🎉:)"
Awesome video! I can even feel the challenging terrain and hard environment that you have to ride through! You are indeed a super woman riding alone on that little scooter....and i have to say bravo to your little Suzuki scooter as it just got to show that you don't need a big BMW GS adventure bike like the two riders that you met. The little Suzuki scooter and the little Chinese girl are indeed legends in their own right! Ride safe!
Thank you ! Perseverance you have. Onwards to half a million subscribers! Very sweet the camaraderie with the walking girl
the best youtube channel for remote rural china is defintely "little chinese everywhere".
the best youtube channel for urban china is defintely "walk east".
the best youtube channel for drive tours all over china proper is defintely "china street view".
due to out-of-town assignments from my previous job in taiwan, i have visited about 50+ chinese cities (tier-1 to tier-5 cities) over the years. and my friends in mainland china also took me to visit some famous natural scenic spots, touristy historic sites, and rural china 2-3 hrs away from big cities. but i never had a chance to visit remote villiages and small towns you went. i believe average travellers will never have a chance to visit places you visited either.
so special thanks to "little chinese everywhere" for your time and efforts to produce such a wonderful documentary series. wish you reach 1 million audiences asap....👍👍👍👍👍
You are courageous! Very beautiful video! I love the cabin too! Thank you for making these fantastic videos!
Oh at what heights you have to travel Yan. your up very high up, please be careful at 4300 m is very high,you need oxygen ,you can get little Cans of oxygen to use but I it would be a bit costly ,Yan those terrible roads Man you need a Medal to travel along them, I think your very lucky to have your Golden Eagle to fly to get those fantastic shots of those snow covered Mountains & Villages ,yes its good to keep warm, I think tomorrow Strap your self into your Seat & ride & Be Careful of all that curved Road, make sure you get a good rest , until next video Regards & Best Wishes Trevor.W.Bacelli.

Absolutely brilliant CZcams channel 😊 I really love following your amazing journeys. Thank you for sharing the beautiful land of China. Stay safe, enjoy your trips and wishing you lots of future success 🫶🙌🙏🛵
I can relate to XiaXia! I did a pilgrim walk in Japan (not for religious reasons) and people kept trying to give me stuff!
it was nice of them, but the last thing you want when you are walking a long way is a big bag of oranges! You are thinking about every gram. I gave away loads of stuff to temples because I didn't want to carry it.
Great video, as usual! 谢谢!
Yan, you are such a brave girl conquering the amazing highway G318. The journey is really beautiful & stunning. Thanks for another great video.
Keep up and maintain your inspirational work.thank you
I just love your channel and all the adventures you allow us to come along with you on. I developed a deep love and appreciation for China when I was studying there in university a few years ago. The people, the culture, the place itself; I miss it all dearly. I can't wait to one day return. Until then, I can't thank you enough for this channel, your videos and for who you as a person. Please keep it up.
Much much love from Zambia xx.
Thank you so much 🥰
If you enter Tibet from Yunnan, the road you take is the Yunnan-Tibet Highway, which is National Highway 214, not National Highway 318. The road from Sichuan to Tibet is National Highway 318. Because the Yunnan-Tibet Highway is often affected by mudslides on both sides of the road, the road is often washed away and the road condition is very bad. The Yunnan-Tibet Highway is also a famous off-road section, and it is the road that many off-road drivers will choose. If you enter Tibet from Sichuan, you can take National Highway 318. The road condition of National Highway 318 is much better. Self-driving tours generally take National Highway 318 to enter Tibet, which is also the reason why National Highway 318 is very famous.
I've just got back from a trip in India where I travelled by car from Leh to Zanskar (Padum) returning 6 days later. As you say, the construction of the roads in these mountainous areas is insane. But my admiration goes out to the men and women who work on them, as they live in very fragile looking tents alongside the roadways. Your drone shots of the road bends gives one a really good idea how difficult these roads are. You have a lot of followers wishing you good luck - so I feel sure you will arrive in Lhasa in one piece. Take care!
Yet another BRIL travel vlog Yan. Thank you for sharing your experiences.🛵🙂
Fantabulous!
So thankful for you and your videos of Tibet. My wife and I were in Lhasa a few years ago and was really impressed with the country. Your videos make it obvious why Tibet is the roof of the world. Many many thanks.
A very rough drive and you took us with you. I can't thank you enough for your effort. Thanks
Sending love from Malaysia. The furthest I’ve been is Shangri-la and it was super cold. There was an unexpected snowfall in May. The highest point I experienced was 3300m at the Great Turtle Hill.
Yan, thank you for all your fabulous and high quality videos. Take care❤
Your adventures are amazing! Just to put it in perspective, I just spent 7 days on an epic road trip in Europe doing the Route des Grandes Alpes in French Alps - covering about 20 mountain passes and hundreds of hairpin corners. But, the highest mountain pass on that whole route is 2770m, which is pretty much your starting point! And I considered a detour to see the Mont Blanc, which is 4805m high, from a viewing point accessible by cable car to 3800m at Aiguille du Midi. I didn't do it because of bad weather. You drove your scooter higher than the highest mountain in Europe! Your adventures are amazing and inspirational and incredible!
The last town looks amazing.
What a hard ride with all the dust, gravel and trucks. I hope tomorrow is better.
I am not brave enough to even drive alone at hilly roads, and here Yan is biking 😅
Nice video always!
National Highway 318, stretching from Shanghai to Lhasa, covers 5,476 kilometers and crosses nearly every type of Chinese landscape. It's nicknamed the "Scenic Avenue of China." Every year, countless people bike, drive, or even hike along this route. "You must travel the 318 at least once in your life." I think the best way to experience it is by bicycle because it’s flexible, though the high altitudes can be tough on your stamina, especially since you have to cross 14 mountains that are 4,000 meters high.
Still my favorite youtube channel.
y el mio!!
Thank you show much for sharing such a beautiful place you are a amazing woman safe travels.
Brave Yan!!! Thank you for showing regions that are so much never shown. You navigate and always say HELLO to everyone. Such a joy. You still have the straw blessing on your motorbike!
Travelers collect special items. You have collected this because it has meaning and importance to you. Me too.
Be Safe Yan. Enjoy the well earned hotel and get a fine meal and sleep. Wifey and I (Wang Lie Mai: "Belinda") love you and wish your safe ventures always. Thank you.
Get rest and a fine meal. We love you and wish for your best.
I think you should open a film company in China and sell, market and distribute your films to the Chinese market I think CGTN and CCTV would pay great money for your work, it’s very professional and important. CZcams might not be your friend tomorrow, they limit and censor content that is positive about china. Start with a website.
这条路我折腾了18年，但我还喜欢看你拍的，注意安全！
🙂❤👍Thank You so much Another Beautiful and Awesome Adventure the Scenery is so Beautiful love the Drone Shots. 🙂❤👍Watching from Canada🙂
I just love your videos, thank you so much for sharing XOX
注意安全啊，318 线骑车很危险，祝一路顺利！
awesome as allways lol woke up and what a more pleasant way to start a day ...thnkyu god bless and be safe happy trails to you cheers ...🤩🌞❤
You have become quite the road warrior!
Insane is the word! 加油 young brave lady
Yan, I love you & love your posts ❤ I pray for your safety & continued success 😊
I would love to see you travel / tour the Great Wall! - many blessings from Jenny in Missouri USA
I cry when the two dogs greeted you and cry again when you talked to Xiaxia, damn...I am weak😢
You are really brave to tackle those roads on your little bike!
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing this huge adventure with us. That lady you met along the road looks so vulnerable. I hope she is ok.
Thank you for taking us along with you, Yan! It's impossible to see what these mountains actually look like without actually being there. Google Earth never shows the truth. Wonderful ride! Your adventures are so much fun to watch.
Have you ever heard the theory that mountains are the bodies of titanic creatures and humanoids covered in mud and debris? When you tilt your head sideways, you can sometimes make out their features and see them laying in different positions. It's bizarre.
Have a nice summer!
😯😯😯😯😯
Wow!Catch you two. 😊
Luke, Naomi, you both should do trips off the beaten path like Yan too. It will be so unique, no foreigners do them on YT. At all. But in order to do this I think a little Chinese probably can go a long way. Just an idea after you have visited all Chinese main cities and attractions of course.
I love the last cottage hotel you booki🤩😍🤩.....worth watching your videos, keep uploading more 👍👍👏
Yet another wonderful video from you. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤
So happy to wake up this morning to find you posted a new video. Another really interesting look at rural Tibet where there is an eerie bleakness about the surroundings that takes on a unique beauty all of its own, similar in uniqueness to parts of the Australian Outback's harsh semi desert scrub. Even though it looks so safe and friendly you are a very courageous young lady who enjoys the friendship & respect of those who follow you on CZcams. Such a journey would not be possible here in Australia where it would not be safe for solo travellers.
Looking forward to your next video, thank you, and stay safe.
hey steve ....r u the steve from bro Li's channel?
What a talented resourceful and soulful person you are 😊
