    My grandmother was born in Beijing in 1929. It's really great to be able to see what she may have seen as a child. If she wasn't blind now with cataracts, I'd show her this to see if it jogs her memories of old Beijing.

      However, he is completely wrong about how Chinese see death. I am an American economist who taught and researched for 12 years. I also saw of Chinese cry wen her loved ones or friends died. They also have plenty of sympathy for foreigners who are grieving In other words, Chinese are ordinary humans. Births deaths, anniversaries, etc. are all important to Chinese and other humans. Also the announcer is completely wrong about Chinese not liking their pics taken for fear of losing their soul. This has always been absolutely fails Chinese quickly embraced photography when it started in the 1800s.

      I think it's more accurate to call it "queue" rather than "pigtails." The Qing Dynasty didn't start in 1200. It ruled China for almost 300 years from 1644 to 1912. In 1922, the last emperor Puyi cut his queue (pigtails) too.

    It's funny when he called it "piping", but I suppose back then, people didn't have a standard pronounciation as well. He was kind of wrong when he stated that was "the temple"... I think that was a section of the Imperial Palace.... Maybe dated as far back as the Qin dynasty... I presume. He said "the chartered city", what did he mean by that ?? So the "Forbidden City" was allowed to be filmed ? Somehow I do not think that he was a priest. I am guessing that he was an enuch.. or one of the old Imperial's servants... and he looked after the building. If the other "palaces" for Ming or whatever "dynasties" were created outside of this. It meant that, once the old Dynasty had fallen, and someone created a new dynasty, the old ones, were not lived in. There is a myth that, most chinese do not like old things. This is why... but... It isn't one do not like old things, rather than to respect that it belonged to someone else, and it should not be owned or something. The Emperor prayed ?? I think the Emperor kowtowed to the sky to "hope" his subjects were loyal or something...

    • @MeiinUK
      @MeiinUK 4 роки тому +1

      He mentioned that the women's feet were bound and that Empress Dowager Cixi was in the other palace ? I am assuming that, she made women bound their feet to keep their circulation or other. Cos it occurred to me only in recent years that chinese were anaemic... So I can now understand how bound feets were really a way to keep circulation going. She was known as one of the matriarchy to keep the lineage of the empire going.... I now get why TCM was always so important to us Chinese.... It was to keep the population going. I know that ginseng was really a Korean thing, which prolonged circulation or other. Or rather, maybe in hindsight, more like Mongols... Or Manchu race by that time I think. And those haircuts... I think those guys were probably villagers who still followed the Qing dynasty's dress code etc. Maybe Hans Chinese.. This is actually a really sad video... In my mind, a lot of things finally clicked...
      I cannot really believe that this was from the 1930s...

    "Pi Ping" makes my skin crawl. The correct pronunciation in Mandarin is "Bay Jeeng" (phonetic), written as "Beijing" in Pinyin, the official Romanization system of the Peoples Republic of China.

      @Alternatives_Universum 4 роки тому +1

      Yes but the correct pronunciation in English is "Pi Ping". The Mandarin pronunciaton doesn´t matter as the commentator was speaking English. So in this case the English pronuciation has to be choosen.

    @WuBingWay How about you learn your own history, it's only called Beijing because of Mandarin Chinese which is only about 700 years old. The major spoken languages in the past were all Cantonese related and in these languages it sounds more like Puck King which was commonly written as Peking. You complain about others not knowing Chinese history but you don't know it either.
