Thank you for explaining about interesting traditions like walk around the incense pot and holding the incense between the hands. Chinese culture is rich in symbolism and metaphors that my grandmother used to tell me, but for us overseas Chinese, we have lost touch with most of them.
Whenever I see food in China's restaurant, the first thing that always came to my mind is whether they are real or tainted. Btw, like your videos as it has helped people like us from other countries to better understand China, e.g. entry into universities, society at large, etc.
SarpentZa 20% of the time provide fake news,30% of the time provide us with 6 to 10 year old news,50% of the time over exaggerate about things. Come on people we dont need sarpentZas fake(almost) fake news or china worshipping people. We need more chinese youtuber like simon who really knows china.
Nice video, you have patience with the crowds at the beginning but was nice to see that later on was not too packed and very beautiful place. Thanks for sharing with us.
Interesting and everything so modern and smooth...getting tickets etc But as a Canadian...so many people, crowds, lineups.....aggghhh it freaks me out. Glad to live in a country with a small population lol
I'm not religious by any means but it's still nice to see that there are people practicing buddhism in China despite all the bad things that's been done to them in the recent history.
Thindorama : Depends on the school. Some are allegedly the “Catholics of Asia”, with senior monks sexually abusing apprentice monks and having sexual relations with their lay students (under the guise of “Buddhist practice”/meditative technique). Others are pious and decent. Orthodox Buddhism is still a distortion and corruption of the Buddha’s true teachings, however.
Thindorama : The way it is controlled by a professional hierarchy of monks, yes; but the core message (dispensing with the culture of ceremonial BS that the monks have nurtured) boils down to four simple, four word maxims: “Be a good person”; “Be kind to others”; “Stop worrying about everything” and “Don’t be an @55hole” (OK, that last one is an abbreviated five words)! ;-) Nothing untrue or wicked in any of those.
China Driving Observations 1 is contentless as you put it. Every philosophy says to be good. I have an issue with what Buddhism considers good. 2 and 3 don’t make any sense. 4 is too vague.
Interesting background music. I feel it's perfect for holiday weekend. Thank you for showing us all about how you got to the top of the mountain.... 4 hr drive, ferey, shuttle, cable car. Also, thank you also for helpful info like prices and how your wife got temporary ID. Such beautiful scenery! I wish my kids could go see beautiful China soon.
Tunui Tahitian Faya 987 Freedom of religion in China is provided for in the Constitution of the People's Republic of China, with an important caveat: the government protects what it calls "normal religious activity," defined in practice as activities that take place within government-sanctioned religious organizations and registered places of worship. Basically pray etc if you want but don’t use it for political ends
@@ursodermatt8809 Not everybody is the US, where you can literally start up a religion for any odd reason. Just listen to John Oliver's video on televangelists, where he actually found the US Law on what constitutes a church. China suffered too much at the hands of cults and evil religions. You'd have a very different perspective too on freedom of religion if a cult wiped out 10% of your population.
Fluent English! However, there is one more trick you can use, move the resonation point from your nose to your throat and chest can completely remove the Asian accent.
You need to pay entrance fee for a mountain!? Doesn't the nature belong to all life on Earth? Or at least it's government property and belongs to all citizens? And it's 220 rmb!? That's so expensive
Wow, those roads! The next test is how well they will be maintained, but I bet they will be taken care of. BTW my old country Czechia just bought some Chinese trains.
Thank you Simon on behalf of all of us for going to the mountain. It seriously looks like a terrible, commercial rip-off place with all the stalls and the people being funneled through gates in conditions similar to cattle cars, and forced to pay at every little corner, and I'll certainly make sure not to visit that place. Is it always terrible like that or it's only during the festival?
Hi Simon. Serpentza sent me here. I started watching your videos. Why does China not allow UA-cam on its network? Kind of silly. Anyways keep up the good work!!
Thanks for a look at a part of China I am unaware of. How is your Grandpa doing in the stock market? Hopefully he will be a big winner and enrich the family. :)
@@youngli2638 yeah I mean like with getting that temporary one. They require IDs from westerners too (and since the HK situation started they tend to stop and ask for it pretty often afaik)
Taiwan is always part of china , that's what history tell us , if u don't think Taiwan is part of china , then I can say not a single state is part the USA

What are the national parks like in China? Could you do a video about how accessible national parks are and what sort of wild life you can see? Thank you :)
Such temporary ID service is not true for foreigners. If you don't bring your passport (yes, the only foreign ID they accept is passports), then they simply won't help. Then again, you also need a passport to even take the train! So, you probably already have it on you. Another thing to point out is that there are still many hotels (maybe even the majority) that simply do not accept foreigners (especially outside the major cities). Before anyone asks, yes, I lived in China for 5 years.
Gregorio Andrade hi Gregorio, we drove to the place, so there is no need to bring the Id. I think the police departments can access the database of the border department, so they can pull out your passport info from there. But you still need to remember you passport number. I am pretty sure in the past, some foreigners had lost their passports, and I don’t think they had to sleep on the street :)
I have a Question. What is the difference beetween all the Chinese Dialects, the Wu, Min Hakka, Jin, Gan, Hui, Ping, Yue, Xiang with Normal Mandarin? is it Writing, are they intelegebel with one another or are they like diferent languages, and example people say Portuguese, Galizian. Spanish (Castelian) and Catalan are the same but in reality they are not, even if we can understand one another, sometimes.
Very nice video, I enjoyed watching it. However, it would be most helpful if you could show a map of your location, as I hadn’t got any idea as to where you are visiting. Show a location m would be a huge benefit to the viewers. Thankyou?
I liked your video, good work. I don´t know if I liked "latina music" when you showed the beach :-) Is there not something more........Chinese to play :-)
I carry my ID in my wallet and even if I go to the nearby convenient store, I'll have my ID with me. And of course, when I am overseas, I have my passport with me in my sling bag even if I go out of the hotel to a nearby restaurant to have dinner.
I love your videos Simon, they’re amazing. One question though: how do you ensure that the Chinese government doesn’t see your videos (in which some are critical of them) so they don’t pressure you or send you to the courts to be arrested?
Even if the government knows, they will do nothing. The Chinese government acquiesce that Chinese people use vpns, and post videos on youtube or comments on twitter with a "different viewpoint". I would say it is ok to post such videos on Chinese website, the government won't pressure you or send you to court, but your videos might be deleted. Only if you post a video and call upon people to fight against the government, you might be prosecute. The government is not that unkind, it is not north korea after all.
Buddha observed that the Hindu gods often fought amongst each other and following them would not lead to enlightenment. So he sought enlightenment apart from the gods and became "the enlightened one". A former prince he became a poor traveling preacher of enlightenment. When asked what ought to be done for him when he died he said to plant a tree so that travelers would have a place to rest. He would have frowned upon all the Idols of him and other religious perversions. I am not a Buddhist but this is easy to ascertain if you look at the things he said.

在台灣觀光級佛廟是沒有門票的，廟裡多半也會提供便宜的素食餐或免費的素食，並且提供免費領取香和茶飲。其實在台灣各地觀光區也多半不用錢，當然偶爾有加門票的天然景點，但不會超過人民幣20～30元吧。除非是人工製造出來的遊樂園就70～140元人民幣吧！
小三通前 高雄紅毛城 從未收費

It’s hard to tell if Buddhism is worse or communism.

在big6遊玩，到處都要門票，應用古代山賊的用語：若要路過此地， 留下買路錢，至於大陸去寺廟的人，有幾多人是真有善心愛心
"if you forget to bring incense" i would not ever have thought to hear that combination of words in one sentence, ever

你說的對 中國景區的門票真的大貴，而且連休假期旅遊品質真的很差，今年清明節去玩了 上海，烏鎮，蘇州 景區的人真的多到擠爆，就連搭動車大多數的人都一團亂的插隊，但是前年去北京感覺就很好
假期坚决不能国内旅游 不如出国

Ruvic 庙宇的支出平衡都是靠信众的供养 但是中国的信众比例比台湾低很多 主要都是观光。 人多钱少 维持不了收支平衡 如果不收门票 人潮会多很多 对庙宇的维护也是一大难题 总之就是人太多 信众少 没香火钱

改建重建的多也是有很多原因。最大的原因是近代中国落后且一直在打仗，从太平天国，八国联军入侵（火烧圆明园），再到北伐，抗日，国共内战等等，百年的战火毁坏了很多景点。同时苦难的人民为了生存而挣扎，也没有余力去保护古迹。
其次老共错误发动了文化大革命破坏了很多古迹。
第三中国的大部分古建筑是木制结构，西方的更多是石头建造。木制结构容易损坏。
最后，大陆人太多了，除了要保护原汁原味的古迹，还要要满足大量游客的游玩，以及当地经济发展的需要，所以在古迹周围也进行了很多建设。
我们现在有越来越多的博物馆免费参观，值得一看。热门景点门票不收费或少收费的理想只有等我们富裕了才能改变。
@@leoxu6411 我親眼看到西安古城牆的整修，差點崩潰．
@@julian2021able 西安城墙维修出了什么问题？
@@leoxu6411 你可以去西安參觀，感受一下：是否有辦法有"明城牆"的感覺．這和日本和西方國家的處理完全不同．
有中國人住在德國，說"德國的教堂才是古蹟．"其實，他所說的教堂，是第二次世界大戰時，被美國轟炸過，但是戰後很認真的修復的．
@@julian2021able 我去过西安，城墙也看过。当地维修我倒是没看过，德国我也没看过。你是指德国维修的好，忠实的还原了旧的风貌么？
How do you meet each other? Have you ever study abroad?
Hi Simon, just wondering are you in China? I thought UA-cam couldn't be accessed in the mainland unless you have vpn.
yes I am in China:)
Maybe that's why that Chinese passenger threw coins into the jet engine.
Chan Joon Yee haha, exactly
