This video made my morning for many reasons. I’ve had the good fortune to visit scores of countries around the world including China, and firmly believe that while the architecture, landscape and food may differ, we are all one people with the same hopes, dreams, fears and struggles all living under the same big sky. Our differences are to be celebrated as they add colour to life, and our humanity is to be shared as it is our strength in times of grave distress. Your video popped up in my feed today and I’m grateful that you shared. As an Indian, I have nothing but respect and fondness for China; and it’s great to see two Americans enthusiastically make their way around the country. When we discard the lenses of geopolitics and prejudice, the world becomes much more accessible and enjoyable. Thank you for showing this and living it.

With appealing storytelling, smart integration of local ballad, and spectacular visuals, you guys presented me tranquility and serenity to the utmost. Also huge shoutout to excavating the historical aspects of Lijiang and initiating thought-provoking discussions on the tradeoffs between cultural reservation and sightseeing overexploitation, which most domestic tourists won't bother to care. Joyfully delighted to see this masterpiece reaching 800k views on the first day of Chinese New Year. Sail safe, have fun, and wish you luck with your future adventures.

In western novels, there is so much talk of Shangrila as a paradise. To my huge surprise, there is a place called Shangrila in China and it is as beautiful as what is written in novels and maybe in travelogues.

"It'll change your perspective on everything." I absolutely agree - the most valuable thing I got from my time in the US military is having gone to multiple countries. I was not your typical US serviceman, I was in the habit of researching where we were going (a little more time consuming in the 1960s) and staying away from the bars and brothels, instead mingling with the locals (as much as we were allowed to) and learning how similar we all are. I wouldn't trade those experiences for anything! Fantastic episode, thank you for letting us tag along!

I have just been there a week ago!! Ancient Lijiang city is amazing, I really recommend the Yuhu village close to the Yulong snow mountains, an American explorer had spend 20 years there to study naxi culture, people can still visit his house as a museum! The ancient Dali city is amazing too, different vibe from Lijiang! I did two-day hike at tiger leeping gorge, absolutely stunning, I agree with you, it is worth staying at least a week

Just found this channel! Absolutely loving your vlogs! The historic elements you talk about are amazing! 😃

This is no longer just a travelogue. It is an immersion into a wondrous culture with beautiful people in a stunning natural and man-made setting. I am overwhelmed and cannot even imagine how it must make you both feel. Thank you!!!

Fifteen years later I meet my wife who was from Chengdu and a couple of years later we travelled to Li Jiang and you found what we found a beautiful city full of beautiful people. If I had a wish to visit one last place before I die it would be Li Jiang.

Chinese people love Pakistan and its people.

The song that the guy was singing is called “追梦人” or “zhui meng ren”, which literally means dream chaser. The song was dedicated to a Chinese/Taiwanese female writer called Sanmao “三毛”,who was the first ever Chinese woman to live in the Sahara desert with her Spanish husband Jose during the 70s. She passed away in 1991, some says it’s her husband’s tragic death that led to her mental issues which eventually led to her death. She in a true hero in Chinese literature.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful video! It refreshs my memories of the stunning beauty in Yunnan, especially Lijiang, where I visited 20 years ago as a child. Watching your video was so heartwarming, in particular amidst the unavoidable haze of politics, seeing your couples' inclusive and kind to different cultures and people. Wishing you more beautiful journeys ahead. Best wishes from a Chinese.

Before I share this video I just wanted to thank both of you for this wonderful effort and bringing this out. So so beautiful. ❤ Hoping to visit this year.

I was in Lijijang Ancient Town a few years ago. Absolutely gorgeous. But China has way more to explore both ancient and futuristic. Ancient towns, archaeological sites like Terra Cotta Army in Xi’an, Great Wall, Grand Canal (Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal started during the Sui Dynasty of China), the oldest man-made irrigation system Dujiangyan, Longmen Grotto in Luoyang, Dunguang Mogao Grotto, Hexi Corridor made by Han Wudi of the Han Dynasty that marked the start of the Silk Road that connected trade with the Roman Empire, and modern marvels like Three Gorges Dam, Canton Tower and its night River cruise on the Pearl River in Guangzhou, Pearl Tower and its night cruise on the Huangpu River in Shanghai, Harbin Ice City for the winter, etc. Endless ancient and modern architectural marvels. This is why China only comes after Italy in having the most UNESCO Heritage sites. Happy traveling. I miss Yunnan and Lijiang Ancient Town 麗江古城，with its Tiger Leaping Gorge, the snow mountain, etc.

No one can resist Yunnan; you won't find a place like this anywhere else on the planet. It is a land where tropical rainforests and snow-capped mountains coexist, where coconuts and apples are both cultivated. It boasts priceless sunshine and air, serves as the world's earliest tea-producing region, and is also the newest coffee-producing area. Additionally, Yunnan is home to Asia's largest flower cultivation base and wholesale market, housing half of China's plant species. Culturally, there are 25 ethnic minorities along with their unique civilizations. Some still preserve pictographic writing systems and matrilineal social customs. Yunnan even has its own "sea" - a vast and beautiful lake that locals call "Erhai (Er Sea)." And indeed, it is fitting, as every winter, seagulls from Siberia fly here to spend the cold months. They enjoy it so much that they stay longer with each passing year.

It was one of the sketchiest experiences of my life, but so worth it! After hiking for hours, I took a tiny little boat/raft from one side of the raging gorge to the other. We had to squat down so we didn’t throw off the balance of the raft! I had met a very friendly Chinese couple in Lijiang who ended up doing the hike with me.

I am so thankful that you two native Texans have opened up the vast and beautiful legacy of the Chinese people. I was fortunate enough to have learned from my father, a busy physician and good ol’ boy from east and west Texas, who, in his off time, studied the horticultural practices of a society claiming close inheritance from what nature shows them. Grace, mercy and honor always among their interactions with all of nature and its inhabitants. Of course I said all this without mention of governing bodies, just referring to the simple masses of humans. I haven’t any knowledge of how the Chinese rulers and religion fit into their respect for what nature displays to them. At any rate it is high time more people become aware of their significant contributions 😢to our world knowledge.

I’ve never seen Nikki look so blissfully happy. This vlog stirred my soul to new heights & made my heart feel humbly connected to the art & culture of this magnificent, sacred land.
