- In this video, Flo and me are first visiting Labrang Monastery which has the largest community of Tibetan monks outside of Tibet. The area around the monastery is also widely inhabited by Hui muslims.
We then headed further south towards Sichuan Province where we got stuck in an insane traffic jam for several hours on the Tibetan Plateau. In the late evening, we finally reached Langmusi, a village on the borderline of Sichuan and Gansu Provinces characterized by its monasteries and mosques as well as its insane history.
So, get the popcorn ready and join us on this adventure on the Tibetan Plateau :)

The traffic jam must have been frustrating, but what a beautiful place to be stuck 😅
,stuck with the person you love
4:33
and witnessing from the sky the broken-down truck being towed away at 11:27 and 11:59 😀
😁The owner of this channel is a toe licker for Communist, 😁Why don't you show the cesspit of mainland China where a dozen students live in a dormitory that doesn't even have a bathroom? However, the Chinese Communist Party provides free luxury dormitories to black African students and gives each of them 30,000 yuan per month for living expenses.
🤣🤣🤣
The only CZcams channel that can even make a traffic jam entertaining.
I was born in Qinghai-Tibet plateau and it is interesting that after so many years living in uk/Europe, I realised I have always been so attached to the mountains, and all the places I loved most like Scotland, Norway and Iceland reminded so much of my hometown. Thank you for the videos and also lovely to see Flo(as right now I am in his homeland and will hike in Nationalpark Schwarzwald from tomorrow - ich freue mich😎)
Soo cool!!
Enjoy :)
Chinese are not welcome ！Get out. A group of robbers, liars, bastards, bastards, bastards, chickens, ducks, hooligans, and bandits. They are destroying the natural environment of our hometown, committing heinous crimes and having no conscience.
My wife and I enjoy your videos very much. We live and work in NYC and hope to visit china one day, what you are doing is authentic and real and I hope you get many more followers.
I love the music you choose to accompany all your videos. They always fit the scene perfectly and adds to the mood and feel of the video.
I actually watch the videos to listen to the music. She has great taste.
Gansu is my best province, its so ethnically diverse from north to south.
That’s why I love it seeing these kinds of videos, of places that is not main city of China, but back roads or countryside of China through the provinces areas. In other words, places that not too many people would think of going, if some don’t know where to go or start in.
If I were to go to China, I rather go to where you have shown us, with someone who also know to translate for me in few of the dialects that is unknown to me.
I guess the true majesty and grandeur of a country can be deduced from the fact that even a 10km traffic jam provides opportunities to explore and engage rather than rant and rave as happens on Western Roads. Then to have such a multitude of cultures, peoples and languages co-existing hamoniously, each having the opportunity to celebrate their unique identities is truly multicultural and provides China its growth and strength.

You have the talent of making any situation an opportunity to show us the beauty of the world around us, thank you!

Oh my! Unexpectedly, this sudden "accident" allowed us to see another magnificent view of the Tibetan highway and plateau landscape! love it! This is called a God-sent opportunity! 天赐良机
The most fun thing about traveling is the surprise, another surprise , and more surprises ! ❤ I really envy you.
Absolutely!

So much culture amongst the diversities beautifully presented once again and hilariously from sky view traffic jam coverage 🎉 such a beautiful people and land.
Thank you 2 ‼️🙃 Next ❗️
Another great video, Yan, brava 👏 I'm also pleased to see that the arrival of handsome Flo has not limited the random Chinese-language interactions Yan shows on her travels - those are my favourite parts! 😁
Thanks Yan and Flo for yet another wonder of Unseen unseen China even though it is a bit slowmoving this time......living in this sort of surrounding, it is no wonder the Tibetans are such nice and wonderful folks.....

This channel now has two hosts. Flo speaks English without German accents. Mandarin is pretty good. Enjoy your trip.
Hate to be stuck there but that drone footage is something else, what a beautiful place. Thanks for another adventure!
Your Vlogs are so beautifully produced, filmed, edited. So impressive and lovely to watch🙏Safe travels🙏
Definitely documentary-level editing skill!
How relaxing even watching a traffic jam because she's excellent at narrating.
we are the one who are witnessing you while you grow. And your contents are getting better day by day.. keep it up. More power to you
Good morning!!
How are you?
Just I'm watching of your video. From Malaysia.
A+++++ video. Great to see you and Flo having fun and making great videos. Learned so much about Tibet! Thank you.
Love the video, so pretty. Too bad for the traffic Jam but you got nice road neighbors
Such a diverse country, in every aspect. Another beautiful video. Thanks!
Country roads...take me home!!😅 lt will always be a problem, only one lane each way, ah well...cannot have everything! Great experience guys, thanks for the latest vlog!!👍👍👏👏
Thank you Yan for your amazing videos and bringing me along to these wonderful places 🥰
Always looking forward to the next one🙏🏼
Yan, you are almost glowing with happiness having Flo there with you. It is lovely.
Spanish. Gracias por la traducion del video. 📽👍👍🌎
I thought Tibet is a peaceful place no traffic jam... very surprised there is traffic jam in Tibet... Thanks for going through the traffic jam to show us the breathtaking views of beautiful Tibet ❤
It's the “Golden Week” in China now. This year people get 8 consecutive days off. There’re just too many people traveling right now…

Because it was the National Day of China, an 8 day vacation for every single Chinese. Imagine that, 800 millions people were on roads
It is common to have traffic jam. Tibet is geographically isolated region due its harsh terrain. Not a lot of roads into Tibet. Among four major one, only one is suitable for transportation. The others are closed during winter season so think. All commodities need to be transported into Tibet.
Beautiful scenery! Can't believe you faced traffic jam in Tibet of all places! Happy travels!
国庆大多数人都放假所以都跑出去旅游
Thanks
Thank you :)
" i feel you Yan " ... those traffic jam. Once , coming back from Mountain tour with friends down to metroplis where we live and work , we encountered traffic jam too. Our supposed 6 hour evening trip , just in time for monday 8- 5 work , ends into 24 hour trip , for same reason , an accident of trucks occured kilometers from us. We all get hungry and was absent from work . Still its worthy and memorable highland tour.😊
5:06 - tremendous sky!
So glad Flo is traveling with you. I enjoyed your video before but was a little nervous about your safety. Now I can relax and enjoy.
why were comcerened for her safety ?
China is a very safety country. There are lots of single girls/ladies they can go every alone at any city and any time and don't need to worry about the safety problem
@@pbrlpgu5601 一个人旅行业不是说单单看社会治安的问题，比如去西部一个人去这么多户外的地方，偏远山区容易受伤的地方，一个人就没人照顾。况且你很难说，如果万一碰到一个坏人，那对于个体就是100%的受伤了。有个大男人在边上肯定不一样，
@@pbrlpgu5601 不要吹得太过了，，，还是可能会遇到危险的，身边有个人照顾总是好的
continue support. love from canada.
Thank you! 🥰
Glad to see you're back on the road, even if there was a little (big) jam! 9:12 I noticed the "Band of Brothers" decal on the truck, that's very interesting to me! It's probably the best TV War-drama the USA has ever produced, it's cool to see it has fans even in Xizang!
So surprised to know that in between the Monestary there is a Mosque (especially in Tibetan Plateau area). Thanks to Yan and Flo for this Vlog. Wish you always in good health, happy & safe trips. 💐🙏🏼👍🏽
You guys work well together…Bravo!
Yan, I am a big fan of your vlogs and recommend them to others as an alternative take on China.
While it's great that you have an inspiring boyfriend, I suggest you need to be careful how prominent Flo is in your videos.
The reason I like watching is that you are Chinese and can give another perspective on the places you visit. You also have a deep, intuitive respect for the people you meet. There is little sense that you are the 'observer'.
So many other travelogues have the 'outsider looking in', slightly patronising tone. Yours are more like a friend who has popped in for tea.
Flo's opinion feels more like a European observational commentary.
Best wishes to you both.
wow,agree with you。❤
I agree too. Whilst Flo is a nice addition, I miss the Yan vibes in her previous videos. I miss her personal interactions with the locals and her narration etc
Thank you for this wonderful Vlog, Yan! I especially like the awesome green landscape, it's like a paradise. Traffic jams are boring all over the world, but you turned it interesting moment with Yaks 😂 Great!👍👍
Beautiful landscapes which I love most. Thanks for your beautiful videos. ❤❤❤
I happen to have some knowledge of Tibetan Buddhism. Regarding the mural you mentioned, there are two possibilities. The first one is related to a depiction of the Buddha, Shakyamuni, delivering teachings with a resounding voice that reverberates in all directions, likened to the sound of a conch shell. In Tibetan Buddhist rituals today, conch shells, especially the white ones, are often blown, symbolizing this auspicious sound. The second possibility is associated with a ritual before receiving an empowerment, where practitioners must drink water containing vows from a conch shell. They pledge that if they violate their vows, the water in their stomachs will ignite, and they will fall into a hell called Vajra Hell, specifically designed for tantric practitioners. This hell is extremely difficult to escape, even more so than the uninterrupted hell. The Buddha cannot save them; only their root guru, the ultimate spiritual teacher, who has attained Buddhahood, can ultimately liberate them.
In my opinion, the first possibility is highly likely.
I always find your videos so informative and so very interesting. The scenery was spectacular as most of your videos show. Thanks Yan!
Your channel is very precious to me .watching frm.Nagaland north east India
The last place on earth to expect a traffic jam!but you made it entertaining 👍
I feel soo calm seeing your videos, its like being around your family
Very beautiful drone shots. You are a pro level drone operator for sure😁
Those videos that i viewed,They are awesome!. Thank you..Enjoy your holiday..God Bless.
❤😊
I never mention it but this time I will do it, your video always accompanied with matching background music makes the panorama looks serene sometimes glorious, looking forward for your next unseen China.
Only you two could turn a traffic jam into a video opportunity! You have such a good style with the camera that you make us feel like we are walking with you, and the drone footage is spectacular. I have become obsessed with your travelogues and I am now a subscriber.
That was quite a traffic jam!! I am jealous that your roads are in great condition. Here in the UK, we would love to have the same level of being looked after!! Again, such wonderful scenic landscapes with so many different peoples within the region. You mentioned there were 3 types of Tibetan people, each with their own language and version of teachings. Am I correct that there are similarities that allow them to communicate with each other? Thank you to you both for your continued sharing of China. Have a wonderful week ahead!!
Tibet is a minority autonomous region mainly composed of the Tibetan ethnic group. There are 45 ethnic groups in the region, including the Menba, Luoba, Hui, and Naxi people, as well as unidentified ethnic groups such as the Cheng people and Sherpans. Among them, 91.83% Tibetan Locals can understand typical Tibetan language (Lhasa dialect)😂

They sometimes don’t understand each other
I just watched your two previous videos then you posted this just now. What a wonderful surprise💚🤍🧡
Flo is gorgeous!
Super interesting info about regional history - beuatiful pictures: I want to see these hills🤩
I do enjoy your videos, thanks for sharing.
I wish you uploads more every week.
Awesome video, guys! As always!
Another great video. That entire area looked so nice and orderly
Thank you so much, i learn a lot from your travels, i know i won’t be able to see myself.
Each of your videos leave me with a smile on my face.
Beautiful. Jam means u lucky to enjoy the view u may miss.... Blessing after all...
Another excellent video!
beautiful experience as always 💖
A wonderful vlog as always. Cheers Yan.
Benelli is an Italian motorcycle brand, but it is now Chinese owned and the bikes are also produced in China. This explains why the motorcyclist is riding a Benelli in Tibet
It looks very beautiful, calm and serene.
17:30. Usually at the front of Tibetan temples, you will find pictures of 8 Auspicious symbols, or 7 Precious of Chakravartin/monastic/Royal possession/power, or some Jataka stories that encourage harmonious living. In this video you showed are mixed of them, No.1 is Gelug Lama(yellow Hat) and Dharma Conch as basic establishment of 5 precepts. No.2 is Jataka story about Four animals living harmoniously helping each other, which are Elephant, Monkey, Rabbit/hare and a bird. No3. (i agree) is Laozi which refers to Precious Minister (Wise Counselor) as one of 7 Royal power. No.4. is precious Elephant. No 5. Pair of Golden Fishes (combined Dharma Wheel), is symbol of healthy inner breathing cycle (moon and sun channel) and also meaning healthy of environmental water cycle from ocean by rain to mountain down again through river. No.6 unclear.. cheeers
well done. i really love gansu and Qinghai province.😊
Thank you so sorry you had to wait in traffic like everyone else
you guys are great.....!!!!

Excellent video for today particularly "the Drone Shot". Keep on vlogging #YanFlo
17:30 very well said on the brief history of old Tibet and the Tibetan people who still inhabit the entire plateau share so much commonality.
The view from your drone is wonderful n beautiful. THKS for showing us the beauty of unseen China❤
Great video. Wondered when you would send the drone to scout out the traffic jam. 😊
Thank you for sharing the most interesting site on the world's.
Very Beautiful. Thank You. 🥰🥰🥰
This is great that you show the monastery and describe some aspects of Tibetan Buddhism, which is different from Mahayana or Pure Land style. Xiexie ni from Canada. btw I taught university in Beijing for 2 years to help students learn English. Your drone video is superb and the music enchanting! Please tell us whose music it is.
Love the drone work.
Hello from Beijing! Your wonderful channel shows my family so many incredible and unknown things about this country. Plus we love your humility, respect, and celebration for China's diversity and culture.
Thank you so much 🥰
Thank you for your sharing🙏👍🙏
