hi. I am a fan of yours from bilibili(like KZread). Phoenix ancient city is not a good choice, in fact, it is not very friendly to tourists, whether it is price or other is not very reasonable. If you like the mountains and waters, you can come to Guizhou, Guangxi, if you like food, you can go to Sichuan Guangdong, if you like very pure nature, you can go to Qinghai Tibet, like history, you can go to Beijing Shaanxi. In short, my advice is to try not to go to very famous places, because once some places become an attraction, a lot of things will change, no longer the original appearance, more for economic development and services

Fenghuang in Chinese means phoenix, Feng(male) huang(female) they are love birds as you beautiful couples, phoenix as well dragon is the totem in Chinese culture, fascinating village and professional footage. human being (animals) and nuture harmonious coexistence in terms called Fengshui. not a good time for visting Shanghai, hope you enjoy your journey there.

Eric Too Fenghuang is different from Phoenix, Chinese Long is different from dragon.

China is so diverse that you never know what fairyland you will come across. Fenghuang is indeed a dream, so surreal it throws you back hundreds of years to a more ancient and laid back era. Your capture of the place is stunning! Keep your videos coming.

If u live in a city for a long time, what you feel just bad things ，it’s easy to forget its prosperity and convenience. But after leaving, if u come as a tourist to visit the city again, everywhere is scenery . This is probably why people like to travel. Get along with things and people are about the same,.take long time, all the advantages will become a habit, all the disadvantages will be magnified. I really admire those people who have the courage to marry. It is difficult to maintain a long and strong relationship.

A lot of times this is not the case on maps.me No, you can't use wechat pay unless you have a Chinese bank account. We used cash as credit cards are pretty much not used here anymore. You can withdraw at ATM's but not all of them, for us ICBC, CITIC and HSBC all worked well. I think China Construction bank also worked for us. Others like Bank Of China, China postal, etc. we could not use. You can find lots of ICBC's.
