While you are in Guilin, what must is to cruise along the Li River to Yangshuo, the scenery along the river is mesmerising. Yangshuo is smaller than Guilin but a lot more beautiful.
Recommendation if you guys are still there: ten miles painting, it's a road about 10 miles, with beautiful scenery on both sides like paintings, you can hire a bike and scoot the way, stop as you wish.
There are unique local cuisines in different cities in China. Even if you stay in China for one year, you can't finish eating all kinds of Chinese cuisines. Chinese cuisine is diverse, and fruits are rich in variety and cheap. Many foreigners who come to China will feel that living in China is a very happy thing
The vegetables is called Lactuca Indica aka Indian lettuce. Normally it’s stir fried with oil and garlic. The cucumber salad : minced garlic, cilantro, chilli, soy sauce, chilli oil, light soy sauce, Chinese black vinegar, little sugar, sesame oil. If you don’t like spicy don’t add chilli or chilli oil. If you can’t find the Chinese vinegar you can replace it with apple cinder vinegar. (The taste will be a bit different from the black vinegar which is the authentic way.) The fish you won’t taste the beer as it will evaporated as it boil.
I am guessing next stop if Yangshuo. I spent a couple of weeks there just chilling and reconnecting with conversational Chinese after spending a few years in Japan. This is decades ago so it was still pretty sleepy and full of nature.
I love watching your videos, thank you for your correct evaluation of China, so that more people in the world would like to come to our beautiful country！
A beautiful part of the world. Really exciting stuff coming mark. Unlike anything anyone has done on UA-cam before can not wait to share it with everyone
Yes! We will have Chinese subtitles on all our future videos and I’m working hard to add Chinese subtitles to all are old ones too. I will be working hard to add them in the coming weeks.
nice, you got a traditional meal! just keep in mind most fish dishes in china will have bones so be careful. easiest thing to do is just take a piece with your spoon and place it on your plate. you can then separate a piece off the bone with a spoon. cheap meal with the discount but you probably over ordered again lol. one meat dish and one vegetable dish should be enough in most cases.
I remember going to a rooftop bar on one of the buildings on the Bund with a view of the Pudong skyline. If you guys are headed back to Shanghai, that would be cool to see especially at night.
Hi David thank you so much fore the gift we really do appreciate it we can assure you that there is alot more to come, hopefully we’ll make it over to Vancouver in the future 😊
Everything happens for a reason and this one is definitely for the best, instead of ZhaoQing, which is also popular for its scenery, i actually thought that missed train was a perfect miss because it landed you guys in GuiLin, which i personally thing it's a million times better than ZhaoQing as there's this Chinese saying that sounds《桂林山水甲天下》, which literally translate to "Picturesque Gui Lin Tops Everywhere else". If you're reading this and haven't yet left GuiLin and still have time to spare. PLEASE, don't miss out the cruise at Li Jiang and National Park at Yang Shuo, i promise you the Karst topography in these two places will take your breath away the moment you're there, i wished i could share with you all the photos i took there coz the scenery is just so unreal, and completely out of this world. have fun in GuiLin !
@ yes，It's my hometown. The most famous food is snail rice noodles（Luo Si Fen）. Welcome to pass by. It only takes one hour from Guilin to Liuzhou by high-speed rail.
Bamboo boats were made with bamboos in the past, but these days, the floaters were no longer made of bamboo but plastic tubes that just look like bamboo.
Must be vinegar in that pickled cucumber.... that Chinese cucumber is different from the UK one, the cucumber is knobbly, its got bumps all over it and doesnt taste like water lol WHOA!!! Bing Chilling XDDDD and ARRRRRGH!!!! Ben's Chinese!!!! Im impressed thought you guys were going to sign language XD
I think the KTVs may not have a huge English song selection. I really recommend you to go to a massage/spa place where you can do bath, steam, games, movies, sleeping pods and buffet. That would probably be a really relaxing experience
In the 21st century, you have demonstrated the upbringing a British gentleman should have. We Chinese are all grateful to you for helping that lady. Don't stop doing good deeds even if they are small,
And the Chinese people are also very friendly. If you come to Xi'an, which is home to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, one of the wonders of the world, I can even afford your accommodation, food and travel to Xi'an.
I'd rather see you in costume than ktv..but apparently there's a ktv place where you can play mahjong and have a pool table in the same room. Rooftop bar might be best in Shanghai but it's going to be quite expensive 😅😅.
@OTWD_yt changsha is known for stinky tofu and there's a really cool food court which is supposed to bring back memories of the past. Chengdu and Chongqing are known for pandas and hotpots (not together haha). You can also check out Leshan (biggest carved buddha outdoors I believe). Oh I think another British vlogger found a secret spot in Chongqing where there is a rooftop bar.
You two geniuses could’ve already have done a second channel by now to double the income with no extra effort. I think you might need social media management for babysitting your careers.
Do you think that China is pretty green? There's a Brit vlogger who says that he's lived in Beijing for a number of years and doesn't find China to be green at all. He says that the UK is much greener. He also said that China was very polluted.
Beijing used to be heavily polluted, mainly because Beijing had desert sandstorms. China planted forests in the desert, electric cars replaced fuel cars, and eventually Beijing's sky became better and bluer. In addition, Beijing is building a new capital called "Xiong'an New City" that can accommodate 5 million people and has high-tech industries, so Beijing will be less crowded and more suitable for living.
The UK has moved its industries to other developing countries, for example, closing coal mines, closing steel mills, etc... so there is less pollution in the UK. However, going back 200 years, London was heavily polluted because early industrialization would quickly pollute the water and environment.
I know it’s crazy 😜 in china term 4 million is small in global terms that consider a big city. In the U.K. Birmingham is the 2nd largest city. It is only 1.2 million
Smoking and spitting is only thing that Chinese really need to learn the danger of 2nd hand smoking and spit habits.... Culture that i might not be able to accept.😊
He’s a fine young man. Helping out strangers, carrying the stroller and then you said he gives up his seat for others. Epic. Proud of you young man!

Did you know? The famous Japanese animation Dragon Ball, the background of the landscape inside is Guilin
I did not 👍❤️
Guilin is a very beautiful tourism place
💯💯❤️❤️
I am happy to see you guys enjoying your trip in Guilin, China. My mouth is watering when you are enjoying your beer fish dish. It looks delicious.
So good! ❤️

Oh yes 💯
I hope you have the opportunity to come to the city between Nanning and Guilin: Liuzhou City，It is the second largest city after Nanning.
Is it your city?
@ yes，It's my hometown. The most famous food is snail rice noodles（Luo Si Fen）. Welcome to pass by. It only takes one hour from Guilin to Liuzhou by high-speed rail.

When I was there 10 years ago, I missed Guilin & went straight to Yangshua which was amazing.
Yes I have heard that too.
Amazing video beautiful shots beautiful place on the day Brava you did a great job. Have a nice day.😊🌴🇮🇹👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So amazing 🤩
Rich matches best with sauce！
nice👍👍👍
两件好！我是广西人，但我已经有27年没有到桂林玩了，但27年前的游玩依然让我印象深刻，那时旅游开发没有那么严重，水很清，天很蓝，特别是雨后天晴，那画面真的太美了，我一辈子都将记得。我甚至不敢再回去故地重游，我担心过度开发破坏以前的美好印象。我希望这次旅游如你所愿。祝你们开心！爱你们！

Ah ok thank you 😊

It’s in my nature the way I was brought up. I will alway do a good deed if I can help someone. ❤️
吃鱼时最好单独一口一口的吃 这样更容易分辨鱼肉和鱼刺，千万不要跟米饭和菜一起混着吞下，鱼刺容易卡在喉咙里，会非常痛苦。

你好😊
Hi 👋
everywhere is a good time surely in China..... Go to Harbin for the beer fest!!! thats north though, thats Russian border too!!!
Beer festival? When?
别骗了哈尔滨离边境远着呢
And the Chinese people are also very friendly. If you come to Xi'an, which is home to the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, one of the wonders of the world, I can even afford your accommodation, food and travel to Xi'an.
Thank you my friend we will be heading that way I will keep you updated
Yangshuo - you MUST visit ! i make a tenner bet with you guys - if you dont like Yangshuo i wire you a tenner 😜😜

Did you go to Yulong River and Lijiang River?
@@guangyao5551 you will see in the next video
@ There is also a scenic spot called Longji Terrace.You can take a cable car sightseeing there.
If you're just afraid of fishy and bony, try Chinese perch next time, it has neither fishy smell nor fine bones
Ok 👍
The free tea provided by restaurants is not real tea. It may be water with a slight taste of tea. To drink tea, you have to go to a teahouse.

It will become clear why we have chosen this route.

We’re getting there
既然来了中国，三山五岳总得选择一个山头爬一爬
中国的“三山五岳”具体如下：
1. 三山：
- 黄山：位于安徽省南部的黄山市境内，是世界文化与自然双重遗产，国家5A 级旅游景区。黄山的形成是地质历史时期岩浆活动的结果，主要景观为花岗岩峰林地貌。主峰莲花峰海拔1864米，与光明顶、天都峰并称为三大主峰。奇松、怪石、云海、温泉被合称“四绝”，迎客松更成为东方礼仪文化的象征。
- 庐山：位于江西省九江市庐山市境内，是中国十大名山和中国四大避暑胜地之一。庐山作为一座有山无脉的孤山，是地质学上典型的地垒式断块山，主峰大汉阳峰海拔1474米。其以雄、奇、险、秀闻名于世，还有丰富的江南地层剖面以及独特的第四纪冰川遗迹，是中国第四纪冰川学说的诞生地。
- 雁荡山：位于浙江省温州乐清市境内，以山水奇秀闻名，史称中国“东南第一山”，是中国十大名山之一，国家5A 级旅游景区。雁荡山形成于一亿二千万年以前，总共分为东、南、西、北、中5座，通常所说的雁荡山一般指位于乐清市境内东北部的北雁荡山。
2. 五岳：
- 泰山：位于山东省泰安市，有“五岳独尊”“中华国山”“天下第一山”等称号。主峰玉皇顶海拔1545米，虽绝对海拔不如西部群山，但矗立于华北平原东部，凌驾于齐鲁平原之上，山势巍峨陡峻，气势雄伟磅礴。泰山地区拥有丰富的自然景观和声名远播的文化历史，是全球首个世界自然与文化双遗产地。
- 华山：位于陕西省华阴县南，主峰海拔2160米，为“五岳”之巅。华山拥有5座山峰，南峰落雁、东峰朝阳、西峰莲花、北峰云台、中峰玉女，五峰环峙形如莲花。华山由一块完整硕大的花岗岩岩体构成，在地球的内外动力作用下产生形变，经风化剥蚀、水流侵蚀，最终形成了许多状如刀削、壁立千仞的险峰，享有“奇险天下第一”的美誉。
- 衡山：位于湖南省中部的衡山县境内，史上又称霍山，以其群峰突起的峰林状山体景观著称，素有“五岳独秀”的美称。其主体由燕山期花岗岩构成，南岳区范围内，海拔高度超过1000米的山峰有20座，海拔500-1000米的山峰有17座，其中主峰祝融峰海拔1300米。
- 恒山：位于山西省大同市浑源县，又名元岳、紫岳。恒山山脉横跨晋冀两省，山脉蜿蜒起伏。恒山的悬空寺最为著名。
- 嵩山：位于河南省登封县北，是世界地质公园。嵩山拥有大量的历史文化遗迹，如嵩山少林寺被誉为“天下第一名刹”。

如果下一集不是去阳朔漓江，那你们两个是真的没有做攻略呀
去广东了。因为本来就打算去广东，在南宁没赶上火车，被推荐买了去桂林的😂所以是没有攻略的，不过，他俩一直都没攻略，而且只喜欢中国普普通通的小吃街，和大同小异的商圈
@@陈立豪我服了我最担心的事出现了。去桂林了没去阳朔，这不是本末倒置吗😂我就怕他们没去还真没去，服了，真服了😂😂😂😂
天天去街上吃点小吃那每个城市都有，这个景色可是独此一家啊
