      @@Egal0190 A large part of Chinese people are modest when they treat others, especially strangers. For example, if you say to them, "You did a great job," they will say, "No, no, just so-so." This may be due to China's Confucian culture. In addition, the elderly in China do not use VPN software to browse UA-cam or other foreign software. They cannot see some bad social conditions abroad, such as gender independence and racial confrontation in the United States. For many elderly people, especially ordinary people, they still believe that things abroad are better than at home, and "tap water abroad is sweeter than at home."

      Chongqing was never a colony, but during World War II, it temporarily served as the capital of China and experienced extensive bombing by Japan. When he was young, China was still in the process of developing, and Western countries were indeed ahead of China at that time. Even today, some older generations still hold impressions of Western countries based on what they were like during their youth.

And that's why people could encounter some unconveniencies there, such as the payment issue. But I guess that's also why you met those lovely girls doing survey of foreign tourists, they're working on it to make Chong Qing more foreigner-friendly.

    3.Travellers usually installed the local apps before their arrivals and ACTIVATED them. It might be the reason you found the apps didn't work.

    You can use Alipay in Chengdu, but the problem in Chongqing may be due to the lack of cooperation agreements between foreign banks and some public transportation agencies or corporate institutions in China. This problem will not occur with any local bank card in China, so foreign tourists can only prepare some cash as a backup.

China was defeated by the Britains during the opium war and, for over 100 years afterwards, the Chinese were deeply humiliated by foreigners. It is actually grateful to see people in China today are so friendly towards foreigners.

I used to love this place and I always came here, find a tea house or just Starbucks to do homework. As it went popular there is no longer any chance for anyone to study here 😂😂😂 back in the time I could drive in there on first floor to the parking lot with my friends and show them this place, now it is even impossible to drive near it. When it’s national holidays, the bridge would be closed to traffic, making it a pedestrian bridge just for the tourists...... and the whole bridge is packed with people😢

    In minute 33:19 the bracelet looks amazing and shiny. I believe from the information about the root you read, the root you picked is not found in abundance or it is rather scarce or difficult to find or pick, thus, the hefty price you paid. I don't think it is a tourist/foreigner price necessarily, but rather due to the scarcity or difficulty in finding it perhaps (it would be like comparing the price of gold and copper, for example, where copper is more abundant than gold and thus more affordable than gold).

    when you link the payment apps to a foreign credit card, you have to do a few manual identification verifications after spending a certain amount. it's just fraud prevention and to protect them against chargebacks. most people who only stay for a couple days don't hit the check threshold but if you are staying longer and are big spenders, you might have to do several along the way 😂

    always carry some cash around. if you have the apps linked to a foreign credit card, not all vendors can accept it. they have to have a merchant/business account to be able to accept payments linked to a foreign credit card. this usually only applies to small street vendors and non-official businesses but in some cases like chongqing metro they don't have a merchant account 😅 probably because they don't expect foreign tourists(and to save money on transaction fees). just think of it as some 'cash only' businesses in the west. locals don't have this problem because their payment is linked to a domestic chinese bank account. there are other work arounds but just easier to have some cash in backup.
