I hate how most Japanese are trying to tell how PRC is bad,unsafe,etc. and there are millions of videos of foreigners visiting or expats showing how awesome PRC actually is. All the best from Serbia 🇷🇸 🇨🇳
Visiting China was exhausting even with a tour guide but I loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat! Especially xi'an and beijing were seriously amazing for a history lover
I travelled to 16 cities in China over the span of 6 months last year and I was basically solo traveling this by planes, trains and buses. I can only speak a few Mandarin words and I made it through. It was a life changing experience and I plan to go back next year. I can honestly say that while there was the occasional person that spat, I didn't see a line up of people just hawking all over the place. This might have been common occurrence 15-20 years ago (during my first trip to China) but I really do not find it as prevalent today. I think it's critically important for everyone to go to China with an open mind. You're going to see things that might not make sense to you at first but upon further investigation, might make a lot of sense to you later. Remember, the country has a 5000 year old history. In other words, they have been doing things this way for a very long time and for the most part, it has worked through the test of time.
I love CHINA - went there solo and with MS Translator and ALipay. The people are fantastic - I dont know Mandarin but it didnt stop me from interacting with the people. Loved it.
I’m American I am saving to go to China 😍also currently losing more weight so I can go clothing shopping there !! (The clothes are so cute!) and cosmetic shopping. I can’t wait!
I traveled there also with that same idea what I found out the clothes there are really small.The people there are tiny people. Even designer stuff is small.

Aku sudah pernah ke Xi'an dan Beijing juga. Untuk Xi'an jangan lupa ke Muslim Square (bukan sore/malam sampai subuh). Surga makanan. Terus ke Tembok Kuno kota Xi'an. Di Beijing kalau ke Tembok Raksasa China, jangan ke seksi Badaling karena sangat banyak turis sampai-sampai sulit untuk ambil photo. Badaling terlalu komersial. Sebaiknya ke seksi Mutianyu, lebih jauh sedikit tetapi lebih sepi, tidak terlalu touristy.

I'm traveling in China RIGHT NOW as I type. I'm in Shenzhen. My hotel is in the Dongmen walking street. It's probably the TikTok capital of China!! At night, ALL the TikTokers come out and perform on the streets! There are huge number of people singing, dancing, doing Kungfu, etc every single night. All these while all the shops are blasting songs and music from their loudspeakers. It's really fun and exciting. There are plenty of all kinds of food around. This place is REALLY exciting. A must visit place in the city of Shenzhen in China 👍👍👍
Having said that, I can see that you've been to Xi'an. Hope you've visited the DaTang Everbright City (大唐不夜城) while you were in Xi'an. I Think it's one of the must visit places in China. Highly recommended for anyone going to China 👍👍
@@ahlalamo Safety in CN is the same all over the country! Needn't doubt! We live in the five-lined city ,there is no murder crime the whole year of the whole city!

I visited China in August. Harbin City, the former capital of Manchukuo, and Sanya, the southernmost city Beautiful places The main thing is that the cultural shock did not happen, I live in Khabarovsk/Vladivostok, and this is next to China. Their culture affects us a little bit
I live in China and I also appreciate the clean and advanced public transport and the general cleaniness of the country (the cleaners do an amazing job). Like any culture, you need to take the good and the bad, without letting negative behaviour spoil the experience.
Nowadays with the advent of smart phone where you can use it to pay, find location & translate, travelling to non-English or an places is of little or no issue anymore. Unliks previously when i travelled to Japan & South Korea, there was a lot of communication problems. I can't speak their languages and neither they can speak English. As for travelling to China, I can testify it's so much cleaner & safer than when I first went there 2 decades ago. For those who are adventurous & would probably go there once in his or her lifetime, I would suggest going there during their Lunar New Year / Spring Festival. Then you will soon find how it's like to be a very crowded yet delightful, maddening yet interesting, noisy yet fantastic kinda holiday atmosphere. Crazy and enjoyable. Being there during their festival twice.🎉🎉🎉
hahaha，Every long holiday, every tourist destination in China is full of people! If you don't mind the crowds, you can also take advantage of our National Day to travel
@@ksks3188 In China, you won’t be robbed while walking and playing with your phone, your wallet won’t be stolen on the bus, and you won’t encounter rats on the subway.
I would also like to add, China is very heavily populated (compared to the population size of the average country), so there are more witnesses everywhere. That factor combined with the abundance of security cameras (for public safety) as well as guns being illegal contributes to its safety.
that’s one of my places that I wanted to visit the most as well as france but these countries are so looked down upon when it comes to tourism which is a shame
Mmm I had school friends that nearly got sex trafficked in France! Multiple of them, at once. Also a seperate instance of someone’s parents being approached by a stranger who asked for a price to buy their child. I wouldn’t say nothing to fear, there definitely is danger especially if you are a young woman.
@@wormworm580 this is literally the standard for anywhere in the world… i’ve been to bad parts of Brazil, just don’t wear a watch and chain. don’t look like a tourist. literally as this video described, be smart about it.
@@wormworm580 sorry you had to experience this but I never heard about something like this before, and I’m French. France has a huge part of its economy based on tourism, it’s the most visited country in the world. Cities are not safe at night but if you avoid touristic places there’s a lot to see and no one to bother you. Sex trafficking isn’t something common in European countries, you just had a bad experience, I never heard anyone be a victim of it
Worked in Guangzhou for 5 years. Great place. Clean, extremely safe, and beautiful. I could see what you mean about the spitting, but never encountered a child misbehaving.
I feel Guangzhou is underrated as a tourist spot in a way. It is known by many, but also seen as more for business. I visited several times and still missed so much because there are so many interesting places and the area is so large. The food in Guangdong is also really good. I love the variety of historical spots from thousands of years ago all the way up to the communist revolution period.
I don't know, China seems pretty awesome to me, I would like to visit Chinese at some point, but first, need to learn Mandarin so I can communicate with them.
Leaving now after 30 days. It’s amazing, at least at the beginning. In the last week I hate every single persons. Everybody just shouting, spitting, the most horrible public toilets I’ve seen in my life and bad smelling ( I’ve seen clearer toilets in Africa or Siria or even India), everybody shouts, they open the subway door or even elevator and won’t let you get out just get stucked there, the sneeze and cought without covering their mouth, children’s running in the hotels 5-6 AM and they keep their doors open; on winter every jacket stinks. It’s interesting, huge and diverse but man, you need your mental power at 100%.
I think you should not come to China again because you are suspected of supporting the ancient serfdom in Tibet, which is anti-human rights and you are not welcome.
Tibet has its own unique culture. You cannot support their restoration of serfdom on the one hand and hate their living habits and environment on the other hand, because this is already the best life for Tibetans since the end of serfdom.
@@robinklaus8429what makes say that China doesn't have human rights? I feel safer in China than in usa. usa is full of pew pew violence, streets are littered with needles taking ladies and gentlemen, phone snatching gentlemen on ebikes. You're find none of those in China
The US has a one party congress and is even more limited than China as the citizens DO have a saying of what goes and what doesn't, get off that propaganda pls. @@robinklaus8429
No words can express how much my family enjoyed our holiday in Beijing and Harbin, China Snowtown in Dec 2019. My family are going Yunnan in Dec 2024 and we are all looking forward it! 🎉 and perhaps Xinjiang in 2025! 🤩
if you wanna visit xinjiang and yunnan, i strongly recommand that not be solo, it is better to have a guide.the boundary cities generally are not as safe as other cities inside the continent, espeically locateed in the southwestern part of china.
Why we must learn English？If you want to visit our country, please at least respect our language.We have the freedom to use our own language in our own country
If you bring 3000 dollars to China, you can play for a long time. You can have a meal for 2 dollars, buy a bottle of cola for 0.3 dollars, and stay in a hotel for 10 dollars. You are welcome to come to China anytime
@wodemoshou Nah, 20 30 years ago it was insane. Daylight robbery, physical scams and kidnapping was so rampant everyone was hella paranoid. Nowadays there’s no cash to go around and cameras everywhere that pulling those stunts isn’t worth it anymore.
@@wodemoshou not really, we used to think of China as the the Wild Wild West (coming from civilized Hong Kong). But now I think it’s more advanced (infrastructures and tech) and safer than HK. As well as being just as clean .
Visiting China is great. It's best to join a tour. Travelling schedules sometimes could be a little tight, so as visiting other countries. Keep an open mind, and observe the culture. You'll have fun and excitement. Had done many trips and enjoyed every one of them.
Tours are rushed. I would suggest choosing one region in China because it is so huge. Exploring one region in detail is good. I would suggest Shanghai, Suzhou, Nanjing, and Hangzhou with 1-2 historic water towns as a start.
If your are new to China and does not speak mandarin, try starting with Shanghai Guangzhou or Hong Kong first. These places are more like the starter’s pack for foreign travelers😅
I've been to China and if anything, the children are more well behaved than American children. The spitting is getting much better from my prospective, but it's their country and their culture so my choices are to either accept it or don't go.
If you put aside of the culture,history,advanced infrastructure,the safe communities and various of food and give priority to somebody’s bad behavior,then I think there’s nowhere to travel in this world
The kids are nice, but a few are spoiled and misbehave. I have seen parents and grandparents let them pee openly and run around in museums and restaurants. The adults are to blame for thinking such behavior is cute.
@@calvincoolidge1207 China has a population of 1.4 billion, and the total number of homicide deaths in 2023 was 6,300. The United States has a population of 300 million, and the number of gun deaths this year alone among people under the age of 18 has exceeded 1,000. Do you think this is rare?
@@陈鑫-b5r It depends on where you live. In some cities, it is an ordinary occurrence. In many towns, shootings (not all of them are deadly) only happen 1-2 times a year. Deaths from drug overdoses and abortions kill much more people in the USA. I will admit China has a lower violent crime rate. Both nations are much more dangerous when compared to S. Korea and Japan.
As a person who grew up in Xi'an, I am glad that you can love this city.😊Smoking in public places and spoiled children are really annoying exactly😢But in any case, I am still proud to see you walk through the city wall of Xi'an and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which I have walked through.I hope this trip will bring you pleasure.❤
Just spent 2.5 weeks there and LOVED it! I coined the phrase "the three esses" (spitting, shouting, smoking) and they're a bit annoying, but China is an otherwise magnificent and highly interesting place!
Just to follow where you started, if you are new to travel in China, try to start with Shanghai which is an international city and easier for English speakers. Inner China may be a little challenging but totally up to visitors.
I don’t agree that kids are spoiled in China. I’ve seen much worse in other countries. Here I frequently see how parents educate their kids and don’t let them misbehave
I loved my time in China, but I agree about the spitting, chronic smoking and spoilt children (although some are sweet). There's also pushing in front of others, increased prices for foreigners in some places, and scams to be aware of (random people coming up to you in the street and asking if you speak English then inviting you to a tea room, an art gallery, a special shop etc), you have to be aware. Some things you get used to (learning to avoid the scams) others you don't. However, there's a feeling of safety and also a lot of interesting things to discover. It's also a lot easier to make friends and there are many cafes which have interesting meetings and activities. I really miss Beijing.
Wtf is with this clickbait title? You contradicted yourself in the video. You could have titled it "Consider this before visiting China" but that wouldn't have gotten as many views huh?
Many smoking Dashu (uncles) spitting where ever they like and not giving a f to others around🤢, I wish the government makes a fine for this kind of behaviour.
China is more big than you think.actually,if you gotten some small city ,the landscape will be different. the most important thing is a reliable translator app
@msnicotiana : Right ✅️ you are ⚠️⚠️ If you are dark eyes , hair Okay 👍 👍 Western look , same as South East Asia ⚠️⚠️ Why not to Korea, Japan, Malaysia in which safer ⚠️⚠️👍👍 30 October
I agree with you that there are lots of people spitting randomly on the ground, chronic smokers even smoking indoors, chaotic traffic, and people not following table manners. However, public transportation is convenient, and there is a lot of delicious food. HK is a bit better, still not as hygienic/sanitary and health-conscious as a small town in Canada.
Non bias tourists upload videos & explain how China's streets are safer, cleaner, quieter public areas especially for women feeling safer anytime day or nights especially with kids. 😊 🎉❤
There are indeed uncivilized people from lower class and rural areas. As Chongqing citizen from the city in your video, I despise them spitting as well. Indeed many rules. Most parts of east Asia like Japan I am familiar with make one feel conservative and retained. Maybe we need more expressiveness.
I hate how most Japanese are trying to tell how PRC is bad,unsafe,etc. and there are millions of videos of foreigners visiting or expats showing how awesome PRC actually is.

I'm traveling in China RIGHT NOW as I type.
I'm in Shenzhen. My hotel is in the Dongmen walking street. It's probably the TikTok capital of China!!
At night, ALL the TikTokers come out and perform on the streets! There are huge number of people singing, dancing, doing Kungfu, etc every single night. All these while all the shops are blasting songs and music from their loudspeakers.
It's really fun and exciting. There are plenty of all kinds of food around. This place is REALLY exciting.
A must visit place in the city of Shenzhen in China 👍👍👍
Having said that, I can see that you've been to Xi'an.
Hope you've visited the DaTang Everbright City (大唐不夜城) while you were in Xi'an.
I Think it's one of the must visit places in China.
Highly recommended for anyone going to China 👍👍
fun fact, 1st Macdonalds in China opened business in Dongmen in 80's

I visited China in August. Harbin City, the former capital of Manchukuo, and Sanya, the southernmost city
Beautiful places
The main thing is that the cultural shock did not happen, I live in Khabarovsk/Vladivostok, and this is next to China. Their culture affects us a little bit
心塞，海参崴丢了😢
I live in China and I also appreciate the clean and advanced public transport and the general cleaniness of the country (the cleaners do an amazing job). Like any culture, you need to take the good and the bad, without letting negative behaviour spoil the experience.
Nowadays with the advent of smart phone where you can use it to pay, find location & translate, travelling to non-English or an places is of little or no issue anymore. Unliks previously when i travelled to Japan & South Korea, there was a lot of communication problems. I can't speak their languages and neither they can speak English. As for travelling to China, I can testify it's so much cleaner & safer than when I first went there 2 decades ago. For those who are adventurous & would probably go there once in his or her lifetime, I would suggest going there during their Lunar New Year / Spring Festival. Then you will soon find how it's like to be a very crowded yet delightful, maddening yet interesting, noisy yet fantastic kinda holiday atmosphere. Crazy and enjoyable. Being there during their festival twice.🎉🎉🎉
hahaha，Every long holiday, every tourist destination in China is full of people! If you don't mind the crowds, you can also take advantage of our National Day to travel
😂😂😂😂😂你真是个勇士，居然敢在过年来
我要提醒一下，来中国旅游真的不建议在春节的时候来，因为那是中国人们的假期，所有在北京上海等大城市工作的外地人在那时候都会回到他们的家乡和家人们一起过节，这些城市在春节的时候都会变得极其的冷清，大量的店铺都不会开门，如果要来的话，至少也要在农历正月初四之后来
Not Shanghai or Beijing, haha. Cuz no one out there during Spring Festival, everyone just goes back to their hometown.
哈哈 友情提示 春节 五一 十一 都不要来 人太多了

China is generally safe because of it's strict rules and people are friendly and generous.
Compared to Usa and Uk thats a mess.
What do you mean by strict rules? Do you mean using drugs or currying weapons? Other than that there’s no strict rules in China.
@@ksks3188 i agree. I dont think China's rule is strict.
@@ksks3188 In China, you won’t be robbed while walking and playing with your phone, your wallet won’t be stolen on the bus, and you won’t encounter rats on the subway.
I would also like to add, China is very heavily populated (compared to the population size of the average country), so there are more witnesses everywhere.
That factor combined with the abundance of security cameras (for public safety) as well as guns being illegal contributes to its safety.
that’s one of my places that I wanted to visit the most as well as france but these countries are so looked down upon when it comes to tourism which is a shame
Um what? Just go, tons of others go
there’s absolutely nothing to fear in France. not even in the remote locations.
Mmm I had school friends that nearly got sex trafficked in France! Multiple of them, at once. Also a seperate instance of someone’s parents being approached by a stranger who asked for a price to buy their child. I wouldn’t say nothing to fear, there definitely is danger especially if you are a young woman.
@@wormworm580 this is literally the standard for anywhere in the world… i’ve been to bad parts of Brazil, just don’t wear a watch and chain. don’t look like a tourist.
literally as this video described, be smart about it.
@@wormworm580 sorry you had to experience this but I never heard about something like this before, and I’m French. France has a huge part of its economy based on tourism, it’s the most visited country in the world. Cities are not safe at night but if you avoid touristic places there’s a lot to see and no one to bother you. Sex trafficking isn’t something common in European countries, you just had a bad experience, I never heard anyone be a victim of it
I recommend going to China it is amazing the culture and history is rich and ancient and people are respectful and friendly
Worked in Guangzhou for 5 years. Great place. Clean, extremely safe, and beautiful. I could see what you mean about the spitting, but never encountered a child misbehaving.
yay！！！！！
I feel Guangzhou is underrated as a tourist spot in a way. It is known by many, but also seen as more for business. I visited several times and still missed so much because there are so many interesting places and the area is so large. The food in Guangdong is also really good. I love the variety of historical spots from thousands of years ago all the way up to the communist revolution period.

Welcome to China
Leaving now after 30 days. It’s amazing, at least at the beginning. In the last week I hate every single persons. Everybody just shouting, spitting, the most horrible public toilets I’ve seen in my life and bad smelling ( I’ve seen clearer toilets in Africa or Siria or even India), everybody shouts, they open the subway door or even elevator and won’t let you get out just get stucked there, the sneeze and cought without covering their mouth, children’s running in the hotels 5-6 AM and they keep their doors open; on winter every jacket stinks. It’s interesting, huge and diverse but man, you need your mental power at 100%.
I think you should not come to China again because you are suspected of supporting the ancient serfdom in Tibet, which is anti-human rights and you are not welcome.
Tibet has its own unique culture. You cannot support their restoration of serfdom on the one hand and hate their living habits and environment on the other hand, because this is already the best life for Tibetans since the end of serfdom.
I am sorry your home like that
so moral of the story- travel to china. it’s a great place.
I prefer human rights
@@robinklaus8429 u are traveling not staying, so why does it matter

insane how safe china got after the security camera act and currency virtualisation
It not much about camera honestly. Its culture and all sino culture are like that safe.
@wodemoshou Nah, 20 30 years ago it was insane. Daylight robbery, physical scams and kidnapping was so rampant everyone was hella paranoid. Nowadays there’s no cash to go around and cameras everywhere that pulling those stunts isn’t worth it anymore.
@@wodemoshou not really, we used to think of China as the the Wild Wild West (coming from civilized Hong Kong). But now I think it’s more advanced (infrastructures and tech) and safer than HK. As well as being just as clean .
China is must go to destination in life
Visiting China is great. It's best to join a tour. Travelling schedules sometimes could be a little tight, so as visiting other countries. Keep an open mind, and observe the culture. You'll have fun and excitement. Had done many trips and enjoyed every one of them.
Tours are rushed. I would suggest choosing one region in China because it is so huge. Exploring one region in detail is good. I would suggest Shanghai, Suzhou, Nanjing, and Hangzhou with 1-2 historic water towns as a start.
Personally, I enjoyed my trip to Beijing for 5 days.
I went and had a great time, miss it actúally, hahaha!!!.. may go to Qingdao in the new year, there!
Little bit cold in Qingdao during the new year. But welcome anyway❤
@@zhengzhou4402 plan in being there likely in April. There as I do my excursion in Jeju & other parts of 🇰🇷, there, haha. ☺️
Every place has its own advantages and disadvantages. The key is to enjoy it while traveling.
If your are new to China and does not speak mandarin, try starting with Shanghai Guangzhou or Hong Kong first. These places are more like the starter’s pack for foreign travelers😅
VISITING CHINA HAVE A BEAUTIFUL AWESOME SPECTACULAR MAGNIFICENT LANDMARKS AND BEAUTIFUL MOUNTAINS TOO . HOPE TO VISIT IT ONE DAY 🎀🫐🌹🥥🌷🥝🍒🍄🍊🍓
I've been to China and if anything, the children are more well behaved than American children. The spitting is getting much better from my prospective, but it's their country and their culture so my choices are to either accept it or don't go.
I live and teach in china and I can tell you the kids are little emperors
If you put aside of the culture,history,advanced infrastructure,the safe communities and various of food and give priority to somebody’s bad behavior,then I think there’s nowhere to travel in this world
Random spitting, chronic smoking, menacing youth and seemingly lawless? Sounds like New York😂
No, we young people don't spit.😂
It is new york
London😂
It's UK.
More like Las Vegas.
如果出行前有基本了解，中国绝对是一个适合旅行的国家
Bro. "Everthing is sorta forbidden but also it kinda isn't" is how I explained living in China to my family 😂.
I get it!
I live in china and never seen anyone spit on the road in the past few years. well kids are noisy, that is true
那你肯定是在说谎 在中国见到吐痰的人太容易了
I also live in China, and I see it every day. 😂I still love it here though. The people are friendly, love the food, loads to do, and it’s safe.
中國的確有很多人隨地吐口水，這大多出現在老年人，而且情況會慢慢改善
@tungminglee968 这确实，老年人的话确实素质普遍一般。年轻人随地吐痰的我是真没见过
China is very safe and the kids are very nice and cute.
The kids are nice, but a few are spoiled and misbehave. I have seen parents and grandparents let them pee openly and run around in museums and restaurants. The adults are to blame for thinking such behavior is cute.
@@calvincoolidge1207 at least they dont ever go to school guns or a bow and arrow like in the US.
@@eduardochavacano The USA has over 300 million people. School shootings are rare when looking at the shootings per 1,000 people.
@@calvincoolidge1207 China has a population of 1.4 billion, and the total number of homicide deaths in 2023 was 6,300. The United States has a population of 300 million, and the number of gun deaths this year alone among people under the age of 18 has exceeded 1,000. Do you think this is rare?
@@陈鑫-b5r It depends on where you live. In some cities, it is an ordinary occurrence. In many towns, shootings (not all of them are deadly) only happen 1-2 times a year. Deaths from drug overdoses and abortions kill much more people in the USA. I will admit China has a lower violent crime rate. Both nations are much more dangerous when compared to S. Korea and Japan.
chongqing is very beautiful! I went there last week!
哈哈，重庆很好玩。不过我推荐苏州
Kids are menaces, as a resident, I can say that is so truuuuuue.
As a person who grew up in Xi'an, I am glad that you can love this city.😊Smoking in public places and spoiled children are really annoying exactly😢But in any case, I am still proud to see you walk through the city wall of Xi'an and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which I have walked through.I hope this trip will bring you pleasure.❤
Just spent 2.5 weeks there and LOVED it! I coined the phrase "the three esses" (spitting, shouting, smoking) and they're a bit annoying, but China is an otherwise magnificent and highly interesting place!
Just to follow where you started, if you are new to travel in China, try to start with Shanghai which is an international city and easier for English speakers. Inner China may be a little challenging but totally up to visitors.
If you are from the west and doesn't understand China, don't go
I went there as a teenager in 06…xian specifically. A lot of people spoke English and it was very interesting. I would definitely go again
The conclusion was misleading. As this person said in the end, be open-minded and do some research, you will enjoy your trip to China.
Been there several times. Love it. You just need to let go a little. If I wanted same-o, same-o, I would stay on Europe.
China is nothing like Europe. This is coming from a european who visisted china a few times
"has a lot of rules but also no rules at the same time" - yes you summed it beautifully 👍
I don’t agree that kids are spoiled in China. I’ve seen much worse in other countries. Here I frequently see how parents educate their kids and don’t let them misbehave
I've been to China twice this year. Love it. I recommend it.
Ì went to Xian. Saw the Terracotta Warriors and ent to a silk factory there. Amazing
.
Hah, I live there... it depends on the city, we even have these stereotypes amongst ourselves for other cities. I'm from Guangzhou personally.
I lived in Guangzhou for 4 years, well, in Huadu District anyway. I liked Guangdong province :)
You can speak cantonese?
@@yours_sincerely48 a little, but I also lived in the south west and north east for years, so my putonghua is better.

I loved my time in China, but I agree about the spitting, chronic smoking and spoilt children (although some are sweet). There's also pushing in front of others, increased prices for foreigners in some places, and scams to be aware of (random people coming up to you in the street and asking if you speak English then inviting you to a tea room, an art gallery, a special shop etc), you have to be aware. Some things you get used to (learning to avoid the scams) others you don't. However, there's a feeling of safety and also a lot of interesting things to discover. It's also a lot easier to make friends and there are many cafes which have interesting meetings and activities. I really miss Beijing.
Omg....the spoiled kids enabled by their grandparents was the row behind me on my flight back from China. I got zero sleep
Wtf is with this clickbait title? You contradicted yourself in the video. You could have titled it "Consider this before visiting China" but that wouldn't have gotten as many views huh?
Many smoking Dashu (uncles) spitting where ever they like and not giving a f to others around🤢, I wish the government makes a fine for this kind of behaviour.
I second to that.
Thats true. Spitting, smoking everywhere. Rude, dont queue, speaking loudly making annoying noises, dont flush toilet ...
Smoking is their culture

I’m a kindergarten teacher in China and let me tell you these kids…
You are brave. I respect those that can teach little kids. I imagine it is fun if you know what you are doing and can stimulate them with edutainment.
I live in Beijing now and used to study in Xi'an for 4 years. Both of them are fantastic city, which are famous for their ancient architechture

I agree with you that there are lots of people spitting randomly on the ground, chronic smokers even smoking indoors, chaotic traffic, and people not following table manners.
However, public transportation is convenient, and there is a lot of delicious food.
HK is a bit better, still not as hygienic/sanitary and health-conscious as a small town in Canada.
Are you referring to the little emperors 😂😂 yeah they are spoiled .
The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.

Just came back from China, going back there in 3 months. Loved every second of it ❤
There are indeed uncivilized people from lower class and rural areas. As Chongqing citizen from the city in your video, I despise them spitting as well.
Indeed many rules. Most parts of east Asia like Japan I am familiar with make one feel conservative and retained. Maybe we need more expressiveness.
China is a great place to visit, lots of fun and very friendly people.
