China is one of the world’s most fascinating and complicated countries, and its cities seem to get bigger every year. Considered a rural society just a few decades ago, China today is home to the world’s largest urban population.
In this travel documentary, I take you on a journey through some of the country’s most interesting cities. While many city centers are filled with modern skyscrapers, we also search for more traditional neighborhoods, historic sites, tranquil parks, special events, and cultural activities. We look at the rapid changes China is undergoing in its urbanization process, and mention some of the challenges the country is facing.
From the modern megacities of Shenzhen and Guangzhou we travel to the ancient centers of Beijing and Xian. We visit the popular Summer holiday beaches of coastal Qingdao, and the exciting Winter festivals of Harbin. From the streets of fusion cities like Hong Kong and Macau we continue our journey to Tibetan Lhasa, located on the Rooftop of the World. We also take a look at the disappearing alleys of old Kashgar, in the controversial Xinjiang region, and the empty streets of Ordos, China’s best known ghost town. And we explore the expanding urban centers along the Yangtze river, including Wuhan and Chongqing, all the way to the fast paced metropolis of Shanghai.
I traveled through China independently for more than a decade, on several occasions. The footage in this video was shot between 2010 and 2019, and is accompanied by background information. For more in-depth information on each place, I recommend to read, watch, and listen to as many different sources as you can.

Here’s a brief overview of the content in this video:
We begin our journey in Shanghai, one of China’s most remarkable cities. Its skyline has become a symbol for the country’s economic growth. While we look at the modern face of Shanghai, I also visit some more traditional neighborhoods, even though they are disappearing fast.
We travel onwards to Harbin, in the North of China, to visit a spectacular Winter festival, with sculptures and palaces made from ice and snow, which draws millions of tourists every year. Beijing, the nation’s capital, is our next destination. This is the political heart of China, but also brims with culture and creativity.
In Chongqing, located on the mighty Yangtze river, we witness some of the urbanization process, while in Lhasa we look at the traditions and customs of the Tibetan people. We travel onwards to Xian, where we walk on the ancient city walls, eat some delicious food in the Muslim neighborhood, and visit the magnificent Terracotta Army.
After Xian, we travel to Ordos, China’s best known ‘ghost town’. After which we continue our way to Kashgar, in the now controversial Xinjiang region, where the faith of the Uyghur people hangs in the balance. Qingdao is our next destination, one of China’s most beautiful coastal cities, where we also explore some of the suburbs.
Hong Kong is perhaps the perfect mix between East and West. A short ferry ride away, Macau retains some of its Portuguese history, but is also known as the ‘Las Vegas of Asia’ with its many casinos. Just across the ‘border’ from both, Shenzhen has grown into one of China’s largest and wealthiest cities, while it was just a small fishing village 40 years ago.
The last two cities we visit are Wuhan and Guangzhou, which have their own distinct character. I visited Wuhan before the pandemic broke out, and found a sprawling city. Guangzhou is also a vast metropolis, and is known for its Cantonese culture and cuisine.

Hi, just for discussion, I wonder why you use invade at the Tibet part, because simply Tibet region was conquered by Mongolians and become a part of the Yuan Mongolian dynasty, since then is has become a part of China through every dynasty. Including the ROC, and PRC just had the troops walked into Tibet to claim actual control, no violence and combat take part, the remaining ROC soldiers chose to switch to be PLAs. According to your attitude, should I describe Hawi as a independent region invaded by US? I feel your video is very nice made and you spend a lot time to make this a great video, however, I hope you can present less stereotype China to the KZfaq audiences.

The video creator just want to show the old part of China, the City Qing Dao which is my home town is around 2000, much city are around 2005, much earlier than the creator said around 2015-2019, some from 2010. So first ,he is a liar . Secondly he really learned from CNN ,always used a dark and smog picture of China to show how polluted China used to be , but more like around 2005 which is I said the time the video come from, to show to the audience the bad image of China. Thirdly he used invade Tibet which pretending never know that Tibet already belong to Chine much longer than U.S.A founded. And also used the 1 million concentrated camp to devaluated Xinjian ,and show the raining and muddy part of Xingjian, and also never show the new building and people dancing in the park, so just show the bad part never show the good one. unbias way, but the realty is he never travelled to China maybe or the most of the videos from this from other resource

Stef, thanks for your introduction! ❤❤❤ But the difference between the Chinese cities shown in your camera and the ones I have been to is very significant, perhaps because your filming was more than a decade ago. The air in China is noticeably better now, and the streets are cleaner and cleaner. Also, I am surprised that you used the term 'invasion of Tibet'. Because since the Yuan Dynasty in China, Tibet has always belonged to the Chinese government, and you can even see the Yonghe Palace in Beijing, the place where Tibetan religious leaders lived for a long time during the Qing Dynasty. In 1950, the CPC expelled the Dalai Lama and abolished the serfdom. In addition to the then Tibetan warlord leader, the peasants were very supportive of the CPC

In the minds of Westerners, there are some prejudices and inherent impressions about China. What I want to say is that China has uneven development and a large gap between rich and poor. China is a super-large developing country, but China’s development , the speed of change is much faster than what Western countries think. Thanks to the rapid economic development, low production costs and high efficiency, highly educated workers, and industrial upgrading towards high technology, it is happening every day in many places and cities. Earth-shaking changes, your video reminded me of what it was like when I was a child, and obviously there have been too many changes now. I don’t think this is a fair and objective video that can provide many people with a correct understanding of China. I hope everyone will come. Walk around China and take a look. Maybe you still don’t like China, but your impression will definitely not be too bad.

I am Chinese, and by the way, I would like to answer the question raised by the blogger about our country's network blockade. What I want to say is that being able to speak here actually means that the country's control over this area is relatively relaxed. Our country's network blockade is actually for two purposes. 1. It is to break away from the control of American hegemony. We have learned from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq that our country must have an independent network, Because these two countries were randomly cut off by the United States during their war with the United States, resulting in the paralysis of the entire national network, our country attaches great importance to this. 2. To prevent unrest, many people do not know that our country used to be able to use Google services, but a major event occurred in 2008 when a terrorist organization planned a terrorist attack on Facebook, The location took place in our Xinjiang region, causing widespread unrest in our country. The country put in a lot of effort to govern without success, so it made representations to Google and Facebook. However, the two companies refused to provide information about terrorist organizations on the grounds of violating personal privacy rights. As a result, our country realized that it was necessary to firmly control technology and talent in its own hands only by independently building a network, So our country has developed the Great Firewall of the Internet to prevent interference from foreign forces. Now, our country has relaxed many controls. Although we still cannot use Google services, we can use some special means to search for foreign inquiries. Our country's original intention is to prevent some brainless and simplistic people from being brainwashed. Most of the people who search for information are neutral in concept and have their own judgment ability 我是中国人,这里顺便回答一下博主说过我们国家网络封锁的问题,我想说的是我能站在这里说话其实就是代表着国家对于这方面管控其实比较放松的,我们国家封锁网络其实出于两个目的,1.是为了脱离美国霸权主义的控制,我们从阿富汗,伊拉克战争中学到了我们国家必须要有独立的网络,因为这两个国家之前在和美国打仗的时候被美国随意切断网络,导致整个国家网络瘫痪,所以我们国家非常重视这一点,2.是为了防止动乱,许多人不知道的是我们国家以前是可以用谷歌服务的但是在2008年出过了一个大事就是一个恐怖组织在facebook上策划了一个恐怖袭击事件,地点就发生在了我们新疆地区,导致我国大面积动乱,国家花了大力气去治理没有成功,于是向谷歌公司和facebook公司提出交涉,但是两家公司以侵犯个人隐私权为由拒绝提供恐怖组织的信息,于是我们国家意识到只有自己独立自主的建设网络把科技与人才牢牢掌握在自己手里是必要的,所以我们国家开发了网络防火长城来预防境外势力的干扰,现在我们国家管控放松了许多虽然任然用不了谷歌服务但是可以利用一些特殊的手段翻出来看外国的咨询,我们国家的本意是为了防止一些没有头脑思想简单的人被洗脑,翻出来的人大部分观念中立,有自己的判断能力

Superior dissemination of values seems like an objective description, yet it's infused with much subjective, non-objective, and unsupported content. For instance: 1. "Tibet is being invaded." Have you truly delved into Tibet's history? Are you aware of the previous serfdom in Tibet? Do you know how the majority of Tibetan farmers view this issue? 2. The "millions detained in Xinjiang's concentration camps." Have you personally witnessed these camps? Do you understand the scale camps for millions of people to be detained in such facilities? Need how much vast land area, staff required for management, food, and medical supplies? It's remarkable how things unknown to billions of Chinese people are conveniently discovered and "stated as facts" by those briefly traveling, akin to a discovery by Sherlock Holmes.

How do I look up that major terrorist attack? I'm not getting results on Google. I also can't find any information about the US shutting down the internet in Afghanistan or Iraq. It turns out websites are stored on servers and can be accessed through submarine cables, satellites, and radio towers which are owned by internet service providers. To shutdown internet access, governments have to tell the internet service providers what they want done. The Taliban is able to censor internet in parts of Afghanistan because they occupy the ISP centers. Countries like India and Zimbabwe regularly shut down internet by threatening to arrest local providers. Internet shut down is condemned by the UN, but any country can do it. Going a little deeper down this rabbit hole, The Great Firewall is an exchange between ISPs inside and outside of China. It's purely a means of controlling information

IXPs are connections between ISPs that communicate data between providers faster. The Great Firewall is three IXPs being used as "internet customs". It slows down communication in and out of the country and doesn't have any thing to do with submarine cables. There are cables along China's coast connecting cities.

No... sorry but the censorship is very obvious to anyone who isn't a CCP sympathizer and propogandist that it isn't there to protect the people but only the CCP. How many Chinese know the truth about Tiananmen square and how the government ran people over in tanks and hundreds of not thousands of students were killed? Your own replies in regards to your ignorance on how the CCP has locked away at least a million people in Xinjiang is proof enough of the CCP's propaganda and censorship. Hell if you aren't part of the communist party yourself (which you likely are) odds are you are using a VPN and are simply lying to spread propaganda.

Stef, I have to applaud you for using half truth for soft propaganda, it is really a good technique, much better than Winston’s work! Purposely omitting some facts mixing with outdated videos footages while display “Stef Hoffer 2023” through out your entire video is also a good choice! It makes people believe all are taken recently, especially that part about Xinjiang - such a underdeveloped placed for Uyghurs in sharp contrast to those modern none Uyghur cities. I love your occasionally using the word “invade Tibet” “ million of Uyghur in concentration “, it blends into your soft propaganda narrative so smoothly yet it can definitely leaves the ‘desire’ impression on your audience quietly.

Westerners find it difficult to get rid of the bias and ignorance of the media. Western media has always promoted that Chinese people are brainwashed by the government, but in fact, Westerners are being brainwashed by their own media. Unfortunately, they themselves are not aware of this issue. I hope more and more people will come to China for tourism. The Chinese government has not restricted tourists from visiting Xinjiang and Tibet. Communicating with local people and seeing the real social situation in China will change your perception. Although China is not perfect, it is definitely not as evil as advertised by Western media.

Great video and enjoyed a lot. But honestly I don't understand why you think replacing slums and poorly built neighborhoods is a negative thing. It's a necessary process that any country needs to go through when emerging out of poverty. By the way, it might be true that the type of developments that are replacing those neighborhoods are not people oriented. That's a problem with poor/outdated urban planning. But replacing poorly built neighborhoods is not a choice. And I think China is learning fast from other places, especially from European cities, about people oriented urban planning.

Great points. But I think his point is that slums are being replaced with the same copy/paste development you find in any modern place. However, what China mistake from Europe is that the slums are improved in character with the city; London looks very different from Paris/Rome/Berlin/Moscow even though all have modern tower clusters - you know when you’re in Moscow vs Rome. In China, there’s not much different from the built up part of Chongqing vs Shanghai or Guangzhou for example other than terrible and climate (and dialect/spoken language).

If you know anything about China, you will know that people in the "slum" are counting days for the demolition. They get paid millions with even several replacing apartments. that's the fastest way for the people in the lower class to get rich after one night. there is even a noun for family like this called 拆迁户,"demolishing household".

Chinese people know that around 2010, the West misjudged China, thinking that China was about to carry out political reforms based on one-person-one-vote democracy, so international media capital entered China and bought a lot of Chinese media shares, but their expectations fell through. .

I don't want to live in a sweltering traditional house and be watched by modern Westerners like monkeys while praising us for preserving our nation's traditional culture. Now we live in air-conditioned modern buildings and wear loose, comfortable clothes. This is not only supported by the government, but also our own choice. If westerners say we have abandoned traditional culture, how about we switch places?

Does China need to dispatch over 3 million police officers to manage it?? How much does it cost to have over 3 million police officers? No one needs $150 million to sustain expenses every day, counting only $50.. Even the United States cannot afford such large expenses.. If Xinjiang imprisons over 1 million Muslims, do you see the fear of other Muslims in Xinjiang? Have you seen the scene of their mass exodus?? Have you ever been to Xinjiang? Think again about what you saw, do you think it's possible?? If a prison imprisons more than 100 Muslims. Xinjiang needs more than 10000 prisons.. Do you think it's possible?

So, I would rather say it is YT and Facebook who don’t want to do business in China rather than China banned certain internet traffic.

哈哈,看了視頻,我感到很奇怪,也許在歐洲2015和2023區別很小, 但是在亞洲,2015,和2023是完全不一樣的。 街景,人的衣服,時尚,空氣,等等,完全不一樣。 這些視頻看起來是非常落後的,歷史的內容,衣服,街景都是非常落後的時代。但是現在完全不同了。

THANK YOU SO MUCH. POST MORE VIDEOS, PLEASE....❤We love you videos ❤. 📹. Post more videos, please.. In fact All Uyghurs, Tibetans and Non Chinese People are the Victims of war criminal China's illegal invasion into East Turkestan, Tibet, Manchuria, Southern Mongolia, Yellow Uyghur Gansu, Kazakh Akhsay, Koknoor, Guangxi Zhuang region, Yunnan, Ningxia Hui region, Korean liaoning..... All Uyghurs, Tibetans and Non Chinese are the Witnesses of China's non stop bloody wars against unarmed, defenceless and innocent Uyghur children, Uyghur women, and Uyghur men in East Turkestan in Central Asia and Tibet on the roof of the world. Both war criminal Chinese State and war criminal Chinese illegal invaders have Exterminated over 100 million non Chinese people on vast non Chinese territories since 1950s by bloody wars, state Terrorism, organ harvesting, making HUMAN FLESH CAPSULES, Cannibalism, Great Leap forward ( Genocide), Great Cultural revolution ( Genocide), strict control of Birth ( Genocide) , forced sterilisation ( Genocide), blood harvesting, Organ Harvesting, Tested Forty Six Nuclear Bombs on unarmed Uyghur civilians ( Genocide) , Established the World's biggest Uyghur concentration mass murder camps ( Genocide), produced millions of UYGHUR HALAL ORGANS ( Genocide), produced billions of HUMAN Flesh Capsules ( Genocide, Cannibalism).... In fact in real world since ancient times till 1st October 1949 there is no such thing "China, China's Qing dynasty, Han-Chinese, Hui-Chinese, Chinese civilization.....". In fact since ancient times till Today there is no Chinese, Chinese race, Chinese ethnic group, Chinese DNA, Chinese spoken language, Chinese written language, Chinese civilization, Chinese history ..... those are the fabrication of the Department of Propaganda of CCP since 1950s. Mandarin language is the language of Manchu people. Manchu people are para-Eastern Turkic people, practice Shamanism, do not eat dogs , do not eat cats ..... Mandarin language is not chinese language. There is no such thing Chinese language. Manchu Khanate ( 1644-1912) of Manchu People has nothing to do with fictional Chinese. Manchu Khanate ( 1644-1912) is not China's Qing dynasty. Manchu people do not know the meaning of Qing dynasty, because there is no such thing Qing dynasty. Manchu Khanate ( 1644-1912) is established by Noor Hach Khan . Cantonese language is the language of Canton people in the South of Yangtze River. Cantonese language is not chinese ĺanguage . There is no Chinese language. Mandarin language and Cantonese language are Two Totally different language groups of totally different people on totally different geographical regions of the Asia. Written language of Mandarin language of Manchu people, Japanese language, Korean language, and over 400 totally different languages in North East Asia and East Asia are very much similar, but very much different reading, different meaning, and they do belongs to over 400 totally different nations, and they are not Chinese written language. There is no Chinese spoken language, no Chinese written language and nothing is Chinese.... Chinese is total fiction of the department of propaganda of CCP. At least 99.99 Percent of the comments on this Video are "Made in China" by China's Internet Army. Again millions of Wumao on the comment sections of KZfaq all the time. China is the Global Disinformation Superpower monster. East Turkestan Republic is full independent Uyghur State on 12 November 1933 . Communist Soviet Union has invented China on 1st October 1949. Since then war criminal China has illegally invaded vast non Chinese territories including East Turkestan of Uyghur Nation, Tibet, Manchuria, Southern Mongolia, Yellow Uyghur Gansu, Kazakh Akhsay, Koknoor, Guangxi Zhuang region, Yunnan, Ningxia Hui region, Korean liaoning..... Both war criminal Chinese State and war criminal Chinese illegal invaders have Exterminated over 100 million Non-Chinese people. Since 1949 War CRIMINAL CHINA'S non stop bloody wars are still going on Uyghurs in Eastern Turkestan, on Tibetans in Tibet and war criminal China wanted to totally exterminate Uyghurs and Tibetans. Because Uyghurs are the natural and legal owner of the Eastern Turkestan. Tibetans are the owner of Tibet. Since ancient times till Today Chinese naturally and Legally do not belong to Eastern Turkestan in Central Asia, Tibet on the roof of the world, Manchuria, Southern Mongolia, Yellow Uyghur Gansu, Kazakh Akhsay, Koknoor, Guangxi Zhuang region, Yunnan, Ningxia Hui region, Korean liaoning...

Having been there myself without government minders; I can clearly say China does have great cities with pockets of modernity but even there one can’t enjoy the success the US has - simple things like clean drinking water that’s not bottled, clean bathrooms with free toilet paper (not just in “foreign hotels”, and a range of development with their characteristics. NY and Chi are still the world’s #1 and #2 central business districts; that ain’t changing. So yes while these areas are nice, they don’t compare well to the US or even HK. Move to the rural and its 3rd world with Chinese characteristics.
