是的，清朝昌盛时期真的非常繁华，但后来皇帝不敢反抗外来势力，觉得以和为贵，不断地向入侵者妥协，不断地割让领地给其他国家，一直到后来八国联军洗劫了清朝大量财宝，当时的清朝皇帝正带领着整个国家一步步走向灭亡

This was recorded in 1912. By that China had suffered a lot of wars that devastated the country. The Taiping rebellion alone killed around 20 million. Compare to the American Civil war that took place around the same time that killed around 500,000. And the Taiping rebellion was just one example. There were also natural disasters such as flooding and failed harvests. Those Qing TV dramas usually portrayed the golden age of the Dynasty.

@@emiogawa86 There is no defending modern China's intellectual property theft, but attributing it to East Asians exclusively is either disingenuous, or simply historically uninformed. This phenomenon of IP theft by industrially undeveloped, but ambitious nations has been prevalent throughout human history. In the 18th century especially, the US was to the UK what China was to the US from the late 20th century up till the 2010's. Britain had laws enacted that threatened headhunters with a year in prison for every British worker recruited to work overseas (these were the days before standardized blueprints and construction plans, so knowledge was stored and reproduced in workers), and the US had actual state sanctioned and funded technology acquisition programs, targeting industrialized European nations, Britain especially. Note that in those days, IP rights didn't have the same legal support and publicity that they do today, so individual cases weren't nearly as visible as they are now. The US became a champion of IP rights *after* it became the world industrial champion. So please, criticize China's recent history of theft as you would criticize any IP theft, I'd do the same! But don't fall prey to that reptilian racist intinct present in every man while doing it. In any case, opinions like these will look increasingly ludicrous as time goes on. Technologically informed individuals would know of several so far incremental innovations of chinese origin all but absent in the west, despite china's drastically lower average gdp per capita, that will only increase with time. You kids are letting a perhaps intentionally myopic view of history, limited to the post-modern era, fuel your barely hidden racist thoughts. I can understand man's natural tendency towards xenophobia, but I thought most people would've quelled it with knowledge and thoughtfulness in their teenage years, given a decent education and sufficient reading.

No, it just wasn't, " insanely wealthy," Imperial families and the rest being destitute masses. Your perception of the reality of China during this period is flawed. You also had the gentry who owned land, the merchants, and the scholar gentry, who lived pretty comfortably. Ch'ing Dynasty China was beset with many problems, not the least were devasting wars, especially during the 19th century which not only weakened China, but made, what was once an affluent country, into a poor, backward nation.

im addicted to watching how people lived in the past. Not just for fun, but its so interesting to see the cultural differences and how differentley people seemed to behave. Also the patterns you see, its fascinating. I always picture myself in a past scenario and how i would fit in. It may only be 100+ plus years but its so cool to see. My dream would be to have access to recordings of 1700, 1600, even all the way down to 1200 europe. we are the same as them, they are just in another time. Thats the most fascinating thing that stands out to me,

Really cool to be able to look back in time. Love these old videos thanks for sharing..

So beautiful. Thank you!

The Republic of China was established in 1911 and the last Qing emperor abdicated in 1912, so depending on which year, this may or may not actually be "Qing Dyansty China." Just picking nits...awesome production!

Looking at how every man we see still wears a queue, I think it's still is before Puyi's abdication

The Kulis at the bottom of society still had pigtails until the end of the 1920s. Many people above the middle class and intellectuals have cut queue since 1900，even including the princes (王爷) of the Qing Dynasty royal family, such as ZaiTao (载涛)

I watched with tears in my eyes. Thanks for uploading and wonder if there is any footage about food they ate at those days.

Thank you so much for this video. Very interesting

What a great work. Thanks a lot for that!

The screen is like a time machine through which we look at each other with people from 100 years ago

See the huge changes China had been through in just 100 years.

I watched several similar videos, it is clear that a lot more can be done in terms of improving old recordings. It is noticeable that artifacts often appear that are present in only one frame - I think that they can be easily removed by comparing with two adjacent frames. Other improvements to the original recordings can be made using a similar approach.Thanks for your work and wish you success in improving!

Truly amazing work. Thank you.

I just love their genuine curiosity when they stare at the cam.

China has gone through hundreds of years of abject poverty. What they have achieved in recent decades is nothing less than a miracle.

@@Passportsandprofits We are living in a modern slavery right now if you think about it. Still working for the elites all bunched in cubicles getting paid just enough to survive but not enough to become an elite. Work hard and be a good employee but if the owner doesn't like you you're out

Some of these people probably had witnessed the Taiping Rebellion, Second Opium War, Tongzhi Emperor, and the Boxer Rebellion.

Как интересно смотреть на прошлое. Они оставили следы и мы оставим след. Молодцы ребята которые собрали и нам показали.

in 1912 people stare at the cameraman due to curiosity. in 2012 people shy away from cameraman being afraid they might be implicated with any scandal

Hao bang indeed. Very cool. China on the threshold of modernity. The fact that so many still have the queue is revealing.
