  • Guangzhou, China - 1st impressions of Guangzhou & taking a self-driving bus
    My arrival in Guangzhou ➡️ • 1st Arrival In China's...
    Today is my first day in Guangzhou, southern China. This mega city of over 20 million people seems to be quite interesting! Join me as we explore Guangzhou to get some first impressions of the city. I heard about self-driving busses they have here in Guangzhou, so I am trying to find them. Along the way we see that the city has to offer, try some local Chinese food and explore Guangzhou.

      The best thing of cashless society is that prevents theft, robbery, tax evasion and other such illeagal behaviors. Ten years ago, there are still a few theives in China, because people have money in their wallet. But now, if you drop your wallet in the public, no one would steal it. They just pick it up and give it to police station.

    Haixin Sha(海心沙)is an island located in the Pearl River, and is a new central axis node in Guangzhou. The shape of this island looks like a sailing boat driving on the Pearl River, with the huge steel pillars 7:52 being the masts. It is well known for being the place holding opening and closing ceremony of the 16th Asian Games in 2010. After the Asian Games, Hai Xinsha was converted into the Asian Games theme park and many festivals and ceremonies in different fields were held here since then.

    Mate, beef noodles could be considered as fast food in China. If you go to some restaurants that could serve stir fries or stews, the proper dishes, you eat first and pay afterwards. Most foreign visitors like to go to the fast food place, like a noodle house, a bun house, or chicken rice house, locals may call them fast food or snacks usually. Maybe a local guide could take you to a proper restaurant. 😊

    I agree with you, Ken. The best part of traveling is for me, meeting the locals and of course, the food. And I love that you acknowledge that we shouldn’t expect when we’re in a foreign country that they speak English. We are in their country after all. Perhaps before going on a trip, we should learn at least a few words in their language. Love your videos! ❤️

    Guangzhou and Shanghai are two of the four Tier-1 cities in Mainland, another two are Beijing and Shenzhen, Ken. Shenzhen is right next to Guangzhou and Hong Kong, so Beijing and Guangzhou are more like a combination of traditional and modern, Shanghai represents modern, and Shenzhen shows more futuristic. Highly recommend you have tour in all four.

    My impression is that cities in the Yangzte river delta are cleaner and more organized than cities in the Pearl river delta except Shenzhen. Guangzhou is home to some big Chinese MNCs such as Shein and Temu which makes this city also quite rich. Together with its population, Guangzhou is definitely a tier one city in China, being challenged by Hangzhou though recently.

      @@avil8686 I guess it's because the Pearl river delta is highly urbanized with a lot of urban villages scattered in the cities while these villages are not really wholly transformed into modern areas because it's hard to demolish due to high cost. In contrast, Yangtze river delta is much bigger in size and therefore a lot of rural areas around the cities are not urbanized and these villages have transformed into modern villages.
