  • A walk...A series which explores various different locations on a street level. No cuts or fancy transitions. Just pure FPV ambience shot in UltraHD 4K. Take a walk with me.
    This series was inspired by the CZcamsr "Rambalac" Check out his Channel.
    Hutong are a type of narrow street or alley commonly associated with northern Chinese cities, especially Beijing. Here you can find many visitors indulging in Chinese food and exploring traditional Chinese locations.

    This brought back good memories for me. I lived in Beijing for a couple years and loved to take a break walking down the hutongs and near Houhai and Beihai often. It was a lot of fun to find small restaurants and shops on the side streets.

    I am very happy to see a country which keeps it's heritage center as it is maintained.
    The roads are very clean and organised. People are well dressed and have sense of good dressing, this has to be said.
    Altogether Bejinig or any Chinese city is same as this. Love China always.
    Thanks for the video, expect more.

    Hello from Germany, I think your videos are just great because I am regularly in Beijing with my girlfriend, since there is now Corona I have not been able to visit her since 1.5 years it makes us both very sad but like me already from many I've heard others feel the same way and they all long for China and Beijing. That is why I think your videos are so great that I have already seen all these places and sights myself and always like to visit them. I would be happy if I am in Beijing the next time that we could maybe make such a video together. I would be happy about it and would also translate it into German if desired - just write to me. Greetings Hans

I've been really enjoying this new age style music background that plays while playing the video. I tried to find it on youtube, but couldn't. Can you give me the link of this musical background, please. Thank you in advance. Greetings from a subscriber from Brazil.

    I just love China & Vietnam for they have protected & preserved Buddhism so long unlike India.
    Buddhism is the only peaceful (major) religion of the world so much so even communist countries like China & veitnam have not obliterated it under their regime despite their professed antipathy to religions.
    Besides cities in China are neat & tidy unlike their counterparts in India.
