  • Welcome to our first day in China! As Americans, our view of China stretches from a modern cyberpunk dystopia to a falling power. So we decided to see how true any of that is. In this video we are going to be giving you our first impressions of Guangzhou China as we answer the question; what is China really like?
    We start this vlog by getting some food at the airport before entering our first metro system in China. We took this metro to the East Guangzhou Railway station which was an epic underground mall system as well. We then exited the railway station to get our first view of Guangzhou.
    Next, we were off to Huacheng Square to get a view of the epic Canton tower, one of the landmarks of the city. Althought the weather was gloomy and cold the night turned out well as the clouds cleared and the tower lit up for an epic view. We also got to explore the Mall of The World which was a massive underground complex that was located directly beneath the square. While in the mall we got ourselves some delicious Chinese food before heading back to our hotel and giving our final thoughts on the first day in Guangzhou and our final thoughts on china!

    Welcome to the mother country China where Sinospheric nations Japan (Chinese Tang Dynasty culture replica), Korea (Chinese Ming Dynasty culture replica) and Vietnam (ruled by China for 1000 years from the Qin Dynasty to the Tang Dybasty) got their cultures. Most things advertised as “Japanese”, “Korean” and “Vietnam” are actually Chinese inventions, such as tea, tea ceremony, chopsticks, hotpot, dumplings jiaozi (gaozi in Cantonese from which Japanese got their word gyoza), bean curd doufu (from which Japan got their word tofu), miso, soy sauce, rice, rice noodles fen (fun in Cantonese, from which the Vietnamese got their word pho), noodles, rice wine, lamian which means pulled noodles (from which the Japanese got their word ramen), zhajiangmian which means fried sauce noodles (from which Koreans got their word jjajangmyon), paper folding art, koi fish, cherry blossom trees, penzai (from which Japan got their word bonsai), weiqi (Japanese call it game of go), etc. Cantonese cuisine originated from Guangdong province, and HK and Macau also share the Cantonese dialect and Cantonese cuisine that originated from Guangdong province. Guangzhou was also the capital city of Nanyue Kingdom (Nam Viet Kingdom in Vietnamese) estavlished by the Qin Dynasty general Zhao Tuo (Trieu Da in Vietnamese), who also founded the Trieu Dybasty of Vietnam (Zhao Dynastt in Mandarin), which began the 1000 years rule by the Chinese over the Sinospheric nation Vietnam. The word Vietnam itself came from reversing the two Chinese characters Nam Viet Kingdom (Nanyue Kingdom). Viet in Vietnam (Yue in Mandarin) means “southern regions of the Yangtze River of China”. Google search for “Japanese missions to imperial China”, “Japanese missions to Tang Dynasty”, “Nanyue Kingdom”, “Trieu Dynasty of Vietnam”, “Sinosphere”. Guangzhou was the capital of the Nanyue Kingdom, and the origin of Cantonese culture, cuisine and Cantonese dialect spoken in the Guangdong-HK-Macau Great Bay Area. So now you are literally at the birth place of Asian cuisines such as Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese cuisines. Enjoy your stay at one of the Four Great Cradles of Civilizations China that gave rise to Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese cultures and their cuisines. Try out Cantonese signature dishes such as char siu (barbecue pork which the Japanese copied and call it chashu), dim sum, rice noodles, Shahe fen (ho fun in Cantonese) that originated from the Shahe District of Guangzhou, Claypot rice which spread to many Southeast Asians by Chinese immigrants, roasted suckling pigs and pigs which the Filipinos copied to make their lechon, etc. You are literally at the birthplace and authenticity of all the copycat cuisines you have tasted in Japan and Philippines, so enjoy the inventor nation China with their authentic and original inventor dishes.
    Please enjoy your stay and keep warm. Happy Chinese New Year from a Cantonese Chinese American in Los Angeles. 🎉🎉🎉

      @@user-or2en4ec6e Well, if you visit Xi’an and Luoyang, and watch historical dramas on the Tang Dynasty, you can see where Japanese culture came from. They can make replicas of Eiffel Tower and Pyramid in Las Vegas but they are still known by their inventor nations’ brands, not “American Eiffel Tower” or “American Pyramid”. Yes, they look newer in Las Vegas and not as worn out as the authentic versions into France and Egypt, but you can’t say they “evolved”. Regardless of how Macau and Las Vegas make replica buildings, they are all known by their inventors’ nations’ brands. So it’s Chinese dynastic cultures in Japan, Korea and Vietnam which is why they are collectively called the Sinosphere. They replicated Chinese ancient architectural styles to make their palaces, pagodas and temples in Japan, Korea and Vietnam. All of them used to or continue to use Hanzi, or Han Chinese characters named after the Han Dynasty of China. Ramen was brought to Japan by Chinese immigrants. Initially it was still called Chuka soba, but now directly called “Japanese ramen”. There is an intentional effort by American and Japanese military allies to remove the name “China” from their inventions and their own invented culture, and as a lover of history and cultures, I don’t like this. Imagine trying to erase the name of Rome by making replicas of Roman structures all over the world so now we call them French Colosseum, Spanish Mona Lisa, Polish Palatine Hill, etc. This is what I feel like when I watch all these Japanese propaganda trying to replace the inventor brand Chinese with “Japanese”. The most ridiculous I’ve seen so far is misbranding MY Cantonese cultural elements wok as “Japanese wok”, Cantonese signature dish char siu as “chashu”, Cantonese dim sum signature dish siu mai as “shumai”, or the worst, Peking duck from the capital of China (Peking is the Cantonese romanization of Beijing) as “Japanese Peking duck”. They won’t allow the Chinese to call Chinese New Year by its inventor brand Chinese New Year, but now I saw a Vietnamese propangada video calling it “Vietnamese New Year”. Paper, one of the Four Great Chinese Inventions invented during the Han Dynasty by Cai Lun, is now propagated as “washi” (Japanese paper) and “Hanji” (Korean paper). Japan, Korea and Vietnam with their satanic pride trying to replace China their inventor culture by misbranding everything Chinese as “Japanese, Korean or Vietnamese” trying to erase the name of “China”. I am tired of seeing these kinds of anti China and removing the name of China propaganda from Japan, Korea, Vietnam and American media. Japan is leading in this effort which is why most of these things are misbranded as “Japanese” just like Satan in his satanic pride trying to usurp the place of the Creator to play “god”, and with the same satanic lies about history and cultural origin, and with the same satanic blasphemy against China just like Satan blasphemes God.

      To be precise the native tongue of Hong Kong is not Cantonese. It is Hakka and its variants. If you have a time machine and dialed back two hundred years ago in Hong Kong and speak Cantonese no one will understand you. The reason Cantonese became the lingua franca of Hong Kong is because Cantonese and its variants (Shunde dialect is just Cantonese with an accent) is the language spoken around the region of Canton (Guangzhou) and since Guangzhou has been the capital of the Guangdong province and there are many different dialects spoken in the Guangdong province, the only way people in different part of Guangdong can communicate verbally is by Cantonese. Over the past hundreds of so years people from different parts of China migrate to Hong Kong and a lot of these people are from the Guangdong province and hence they use Cantonese as a mutually understandably language to communicate verbally. Over time Cantonese became the dominant language of Hong Kong.

      If you want to have some future feeling travel, you could go around Nanshan district, which is a place seen as a tech and new district. There is Shenzhen University, and around it lies a lot of high tech or internet company like Tencent. Or you could go to place near the shore, such as Shenzhen Bay(where you could even see Hong Kong across the sea) I believe the comfortable environment and cozy vibe and the sea will make you feel ease. Maybe you want to visit some traditional places or have some good Cantonese food, then you can take an adventure in Futian District. Don't be afraid to look for good taste in narrow streets, and I have a good tip for you: Just check the car number plate of the cars parking in front of restaurants. If you see a restaurant with a lot of cars with number starting with 粤(which means Canton. I just assume that it's accessible for the guys who don't know Chinese character to just compare the shape to know if that's this character.🤣)E, 粤X, 粤Y. Trust me, because different letters mean the cars' owner come from different cities in Canton(GuangZhou), and the guys from E, X, Y know the taste the best.

Relatively more advanced cities such as Shanghai and Shenzhen have a lot of subway lines and cover more areas. Of course, a large subway network also means that it can be complicated for you. But in these cities you are also more likely to meet people who speak English, and staff, volunteers or passers-by will be willing to help you. So maybe you can start your trip in these cities first.

The area where you experienced Mall of the World was a complete dump when I first got here. I used to take the bus through there and it was pretty much a shanty town with trash everywhere and decrepit buildings all around.

    Hey guys! Love your videos! You two are charming! There are tons of people share your experience on Chinese social media and it went viral. You guys are so cute I had to log on UA-cam to subscribed! I am born and raised in Guangzhou and you guys can always find out interesting details in life which make me love my hometown more! There is some cultural stuff I would like to share so you may find your trip in China more interesting:
    1. The sign "Young城Yeah市" is the same pronunciation with "羊城夜市" in Chinese, which means the Nighttime Street Market in the Goat City. Combined with the Chinese in the second line, it means the Nighttime Street Market light up Tianhe (it pronounce as "Tien Herr", which means the Milky Way) District. That's such a lovely pun but I never noticed it until you guys point it out!
    2. Guangzhou is one of the largest city for migrant workers from all over the country and it's know for its kindness and embracement. So when the new year comes, people will go back to their hometown for reunion, which makes the city turn from extreme busy to a rare quietness.
    3. McDonald's regular chips in China is also different from the ones in the US -- they are also seasoned -- try it next time.
    4. The sweet eggs SpongeBob get in Walmart is make by a cooking method call "卤水". In Guangzhou, almost everything can be cooked that way and they are all delicious. You may also find some in restaurants.
    5. Guangdong is a wholesale market for most of the goods across the country -- clothes and cloths, handbags, accessories, pens and notebooks, toys in Guangzhou and Electronics in Shenzhen, do come shopping again sometime, the scale and price of it all will surprise you.
    6. The corn man hops up and down on the screen of Guangzhou metro is the head of train of the first metro in Guangzhou, which is yellow.
    7.Burger is 汉堡 in Chinese and short for 堡, which can also translate into castle, that's interesting.
    8. So glad you guys like the DimSum, it did take me 15 years to fade the love for Shrimp Dumplings and Sweet Pork Buns, and still love Milky Yellow Buns till today, so have some more if you get the chance. Also, different era in China have their unique foods, which can only be found the best in that area. Guangzhou people loves, like looooves food, picky with the taste too. So there are lots of delicious foods are brought to here such as 重庆火锅, but the best Chongqing Hotpot I had is still in Chongqing. And Guangzhou has its own traditional hotpot with no spice. BiangBiang noodles I believe would be the best in its hometown. So next time when you are in China, make sure you get the local specialties for such a short period of travel! Don't let the great food pass by! Also, a little tips for the great food, the most advertised one are commercial ones. The commercial ones are like 8/10 in China, not bad, if you have limited time, they are a good choice. Yet the best can only known by the locals and they need no advertisements to be packed with people. Ask some friends or post questions on the internet before hand if you would like to get the most great food. Rating app helps.
    Love to see you guys in China again sometime, and for a longer period of time! There are astonishing nature and so many great food to experience.
