In this video, we explore the city of Chengdu.
We experience the tasty local cuisine. Explore some of its beautiful parks and temples, and indulge in Chengdu's favourite past time, drinking tea. Meandering our way through this city it made us question is Chengdu China's most relaxing city? So leave us a comment below letting us know whether you agree or not.

one of the best things about living in China/Asia is you can get alcohol from any corner stores/convinient shops but you don't have drunk cxnts chanting and wandering on streets in the middle of the night, which is so vastly different from most western cities

and in most places, you can just pop a beer open and sip in the street in absolute peace. Public drunkenness is rare. Drinking related crimes is plain unheard of.

@@darkhalo153 actually as Chinese, i do not agree with this. Getting drunk on the street wont make you “lose face” at all. And this type of drunk guys can be easily spotted in Japan, at late night. Most chinese people like to drink with friends at the dining tables, so if they are drunk, they’d be drunk there and get taken care of by their companions, instead of just aimlessly wandering around on the streets.

You could look up the translation of a colloquialism “少不入蜀，老不出川”

@alfiejiang7952 Жыл бұрын

“少不入蜀，老不出川” is actually used to describe Chengdu as a place where the atmosphere between people is suitable for people to live, but not for development. Because there are so many good food and fun things to do in this place, young people who come to this place will easily wear out their motivation and become mediocre. And if an older person comes here, then he can retire in Chengdu in a very relaxed environment, at ease.

I am your fans, and I came to China because of watching your videos for several years. Thank you very much for introducing the real China.Before coming to China, the media coverage on China l had come across was usually negative.Many people in my country including me mistakenly believed that China was a poor country, where there was only oppression without freedom.But when l came to China, l found China is AMAZING! l dare say China is better than the West in many ways.Modernization, convenience, hospitality, safety, all of these has left a positive impression on me. So l told my families and friends that it was only after I came to China l deeply appreciated how excellent China has developed.

But on the flipside, CQ's scenery is much more astonishing and beautiful.... But man I get MAD trying to find GPS markers there.

agree, don't get trapped by the fancy looking western food places - many of them change the way how the food is cooked and served in order to accommodate Chinese people's taste buds and their special "needs" for a "good looking" meal experience. Drink is no exception - for example, many cafes make weird coffee drinks by adding way too many things into a coffee - pretty much like how a bubble tea/milk tea is made. Anyway, just a personal thought - I'm not saying ALL those food places are like that by the way. Enjoy ur local adventure in whichever city you go to, and of course embrace the local food which is worth your time :)
