This is very helpful. Hope people who are coming to China the first time can find this video. Wish more foreigners can visit China so that all the lies and misinformation spread by US and West mainstream media will be dispelled. Great work 👏👏👏👍.
@@Ychinamedia uhmmm…. the lie that you need a VPN just to say ‘hello’ to your loved ones outside of China, or to see this very video because of the Great Firewall? Yeah, that one. Wondering why they don’t mention it. Oh, right, it’s an official chinese channel who pays sinologists money to appear in their propaganda video, got it 👍
MY DREAM IS RESTORED! I'm planning on coming to China for a few months next fall, and I have been somewhat discouraged lately. This video has brought back my excitement in planning for my trip! Thank you! ❤❤❤
You may want to download a VPN app before you enter China as many widely used western apps (Google, Facebook, & etc) did not work inside China without a VPN and downloading the VPN inside China may be against its law or very hard to do; otherwise, the International Data Roaming with your "non-Chinese" SIM card and phone number may allow you to access some "blocked" websites and apps (no guartee though).
@@alyvarin1106actually，it is not 「against law」that「using vpn」but 「against law」with using 「unapproval vpn」，but，since most of vpn product is not really approve in china，u know XD
I love this video :) I went to china for the first time back in June with my bf, we went for 3 weeks to Shanghai, Beijing, Wuhan, Shenzhen & Hangzhou! Since I've been obsessed with china for so long, I've done a lot of research before I went. We ordered KFC onto the train, I was paying with my alipay most places, had my simcard with 5g ready to go! My bf handled all of the didi/restaurant transactions because it was a bit too complicated for me but I'm going again in November and I'm so excited to be more independent :D Honestly for all the travel we did in a short time, it was the most stress free, SUPER convenient and easy to get around, I love it! Also!! I was on the same boat ride you show in Hangzhou on the lake :D I'll be posting a video in the coming week about it ^^
Can you share a bit more how you obtained your prepaid sim card before coming to mainland China? E-sim is not compatible on all phones. I don't feel comfortable flying to China and not being already connected on the ground.
On Amy's takeout food bag, it was written: "During the day, it was forced to open for business, and late at night, it was the main arena for the soul.She is a genuine local.
China is vast and beautiful. This video set right about the prejudice and misconception about China. It will inspire Western foreigners to visit there and feel the people, cultures and food and different vibes of every city. Most will love and stay. It is very heartwarming to see peace and friendships through cultural exchanges instead of exchanging bullets and missiles. China promotes humanity to the world.
My flight is tomorrow and i’m honestly anxious since I’m traveling solo for 3 weeks. Thank you for making this video entertaining while very educational. 😊
@@zaysatori6185 saw your comment just now 🥲. This video had been very helpful to me but there's still some mishaps during my trip which were my fault entirely. Hope you had a great trip! 😄
Folks any tips to travel in china? I am nervous and welcoming to any and all suggestions,do's and don'ts from anyone interested in sharing their experience 😅
Lol meanwhile I flew to China with no sim card, no apps and no idea 😂 luckily Chinese people are super kind and willing to help, otherwise I would have been very lost haha
This is like a very world class level video to teach people how to travel to China.... I wish more youtubers or Douyin and Tiktokers would make videos like this about traveling to other countries too
What a true China travel legend Amy is ! She has visited more China cities and experienced more different foods than normal Chinese. I am also her fan.
Fantastic video - always wonderful to see Raz and Amy. We haven't been to China for over four years now and things have changed dramatically even in this short period of time - so we found this video very useful for our recent trip to Xi'an (which was a wonderful experience despite it being rather short). Keep these brilliant videos coming ... and hope you (and I) continue to learn more :-)
When living in China, it is recommended to live near the Bamboo Sea in Nanshan, Jiangsu, or near the Shunan Bamboo Sea in Sichuan, or on Hainan Island.
FYI, paper-based train tickets are only for financial uses, you don't need the tickets to get on board. You just need to scan your ID at boarding gate of railway station.
I am preparing for my first trip to China. I really enjoy your clever teaching methods! I see myself very much as Mr. Beginner! 😂 And accolades to your Chinese character. He plays his role well!
I took 20k cash RMB from ATM for red pockets to my cousins' kids four years ago during the Chinese New Year, few thousands were left to use, and I still have them in the closet untouched.🤣 Nowadays even red pockets become electronic.
As a Chinese who was born in Hangzhou and stayed there for almost 30 years, it's really happy to see your guys shot this video in my hometown. ^__^ great job !
Bingo, you could check the available providers at the next stop by the QR code on the Seat armrest. Then select one or more to build orders and wait for the delivery.
Great video! I grew up here and I travelled over the whole country. I just made a video of all the provinces in China, hope this can help people getting to know China ❤️
Fantastic collaboration between 2 leading western UA-camrs in China! Just can't imagine the amount of hard work that went into this. Generations of foreigners will be indebted to you for this must have primer on visiting China! Thank you!! :) By the way, for foreigners who can't live without Instagram or WhatsApp, which VPN service would you recommend? Thanks :)
The Chinese people welcome all foreign friends to China. Learn about the real China and what you said in your country's media and news. China will definitely make you feel great.🎉
Hey! Glad that the algo pushed this video to me. Are you guys based in Hangzhou? I'm heading to China next month (Hangzhou-Suzhou-Shanghai); and I must say this video is really useful!
Rookie: Being a foreign streamer in Douyin by teaching English. Legend: Show the world how to see what China is really like through their own eyes on tic tok/UA-cam… Congrats to Ychina on finally finding the wealth code. 🎉名利双收，功德无量
Thank you Raz and Amy for the very useful tips. Now I am equipped with the knowledge to explore China on my own I would like to see with my own eyes, how much lies about China has been manufactured by the US media. Of course my first priority is Xinjiang, followed by Tibet.
However I must remind you: 1. Xinjiang and Xizang(Tibet) are extremely remote , infrastructure and education are not as good as eastern part of China, so make sure you are ready to face the language challenge, elder and mid age people there may have difficulty even speaking mandarin. 2. For anti-terrorism purposes, ID check is more frequent there especially for foreigners. If you were a liberal, plz don’t feel offended, it’s nothing personal, just for greater good
This is what foreigners who want to go to China needs most! More English videos are welcome from your channel!
They leaked so much members only secrets and tricks 😂
Important tip: Amy is completely fluent in 中文，so don't expect your experience in China to be as pleasant as hers if you don't know 中文。

How does takeout food work on the train so they bring you food from restaurants from the next stop ?
Bingo, you could check the available providers at the next stop by the QR code on the Seat armrest. Then select one or more to build orders and wait for the delivery.
I found this extremely fascinating…it’s unimaginable in any other county around world….
@@politeyoung8317nice. And then once you order what do U have to do? Do they come to Ur seat or do you have to go on the platform?
@@jackg5321 Due to the QR code having extra seat info, the train staff will bring food to your seat. There's nothing to worry about then.
@@jackg5321the attendants on the train will bring your food to your seat
