Today, we're lucky to see these old clips filmed by western foreigners in China, in this case a German, as well as Chinese photographers. Old films like these are very fragile and who knows how many have been improperly stored and have since disintegrated?

Just realizing how fragile tangent memories to the past makes me appreciate all cultures more. Made me a more open minded person, understanding the fragility of it all.
It's been a week now .. I put this clip on repeat and turn the speakers on ..I sleep so peacefully listening to it .. none of these people are present now but even after 100 years we are seeing what their lives used to be .. I wish I could more of such old videos..these are gems and must be preserved
Cool to see the humility and thoughtfulness in the average person. The modern world needs those things.

Yes the history but also, something about analog film recording surpasses digital by far, pixel resolution is a pointless pursuit (pun intended). There's life and soul in film recording that digital is unable to capture despite gazillions pixels and recreated colors it's not alive the way film footage is alive. Think that in a film footage every speck of color or light is made by chemical reaction and every frame has its own sensitive chemical receptors whereas in digital the same transistors are repeatedly used over and over for every frame, so there is a previous data dependancy correlation between frames due to latency in the operation of the CMOS photo transistor. So despite all the hype around low-noise and superhigh resolution, digital has untold weaknesses.

Those bicycles from the film reminds me of a fun fact. Many older generations of local Beijing people, just like my grandma who is 87 years old this year, are still calling bicycles “洋车”, which means “western vehicles”. Dang, miss the old days.

In the course of your travels, did you ever by chance run into John de Francis? He was a scholar traveling in the same places at the same time that you were there. Later he wrote Chinese language texts. He was the director of the Chinese language program at the University of Hawaii in the 1960s.

I am very sorry that Eastern societies, which could have been a center for a strong spirituality, have preferred to "evolve" by rejecting and destroying what they have been. Of naturalism, of mysticism, very little remains, perhaps only Mongolia. China and Japan could drive the spiritual rebirth of modern man, instead they wanted to create urban agglomerations and very small tourist routes that are only attractions for the inexperienced. This magnificent civilization, of asia, has a lot to teach, and with this video I also feel the scent of what pre-industrialized society meant. Magnificent. I would give every part of me to be able to live this reality. The houses, the landscapes, the rural life, still, motionless, the wayfarers, those who stopped in the houses to ask for rest and hot dishes, how wonderful, I have goosebumps.
