    视频拍得不错,感谢你的用心,虽然我是个马来西亚华裔,到我这代都第四代了(80后),中国只是我的祖国,但我还是想用中文来留言。
    不想强调中华文化有多么的博大精深,不谈东西文化的差异,只想强调现在的中国毕竟还是个传承了几千年的文明大国,就这一点也别想其他民族或国家能够轻易的了解。多把中国的真实面貌通过你的角度展现给西方的朋友看看吧,中国就是中国,不是妖魔化的中国。

That's why it's been the capital of the central kingdom for a long time. Now I'm back in NYC for a few years and really miss Beijing so, thanks for the video. Enjoy!!!

      This video shows the ugly and poor people in mainland China and shows that under the control of the Chinese Communist Party, foreigners need visas to come to mainland China. This reflects the dissatisfaction and criticism of foreigners in mainland China and the demonization and ridicule of mainland China.

Women are told to better stay at home or... when they feel adventurous and really want to go out, they better do so in large groups or accompanied by men. What a travesty. Cudos to China!

I asked why . he said because it was the way all the old ministers went when they went to see the king. it was amazing. and there are no one else except us. that was 1978 . still the coolest memory in my mind. love love your vidoe.

    When I saw her facial expression at the very beginning of this video, I was thinking "OMG, she's gonna complain, like all the other white people! Or she is probably gonna say something like what you hear from the FOX news, CNN or China uncensored", but she didn't. :) They are genuine nice girls, welcome to China! I am an international student in Montreal, Quebec. I always receive shit from the local people. I don't even know why westerners look down upon us so much. Yesterday, I went to a teacher's office during his free hours for questions, he was unbelievably rude to me with all different kinds of sarcasms and then he threw my paper of questions on the ground. I even said sorry and gave all the pressure to myself (I speak fluent French and I didn't speak English to irritate him) I genuinely believe that the absolute majority of Chinese people are very welcoming and tolerant to foreigners compared to the way I am treated here in Canada.

    You would definitely explore more, because you can eat various types of Chinese food in Shenzhen as well as western food. And I really wanna recommend you to download some Chinese food apps and it will takes you to many awesome restaurants. Beijing has many ancient buildings which probably gives you a strong feeling of ancient Chinese culture, I hope you like it. Since you've mentioned about "hot pot ", I just wanna point out that there are a lot of places to go for "hot pot" in Shenzhen too, so hope you would enjoy both traveling in Shenzhen and Beijing!

      The hot pot she tried was actually invented in Chongqing and got popularized all over the country. If she wants, she should tried the original Beijing Mutton Hotpot invented by local Muslins. That's a typical favorite dish of Beijing Cuisine just like the roasted duck.

When we over emphasize one country as being the ultimate amazement I would have to say there are naive or targeted reasons behind taking that position. Sure China is amazing, just like every country. Planet Earth is amazing and that is what we need to emphasize to live in peace.

This reflects the dissatisfaction and criticism of foreigners in mainland China and the demonization and ridicule of mainland China.
