Colorful and smokey STREET MARKET in remote Yunnan | EP26, S2 

Congratulations in advance for reaching the 100k subscriber milestone, Yan. I can still remember in one of your earliest videos when someone asked you how many subscribers you had and you replied 7. The person assumed you meant 7000 and you corrected him...no, no, 7 subscribers. I had a good laugh. You've come a long way in such a short time. Keep up the good work. Congratulations again. 😊

My beloved United States is going to the dogs. Robberies are everywhere on a daily basis and our government totally fails in doing its job. We are afraid to go out at night in big cities. Now we are even afraid to go to our local Walmarts. It’s heartwarming to see that China is so safe and its people are polite and civilized. I also salute your government’s job well done. Thank you for sharing.

You have done your nation a great favour. One can see that the 800 millions unseen Chinese in these episodes, they are lifted out of poverty in a miracle 30-50 years transformation. Kudos to the govt, nevermind if you dislike cccp. They have done well.

I love these videos because they are like a documentary series where I get to see the different peoples of China, their culture and delicious foods. ❤️

My Sichuan wife also loves the open markets and to barter and chat with everyone. She always looks so happy to be in this environment. So vibrant and alive.

I am blown away by all that you experienced. The clouds hovering in between village. The food festival and the lovely people. Thank you ❤🎉

Looks delicious! Your videos are so raw and enjoyable, helping to show everyone the REAL China, and not the China that’s shown on most news channels abroad. Great job! 🙌👏

I am from Malaysia, 80 years old. My saliva drops from my mouth when I see you eating all the delicious food. 🎉

This is what us westerners want to to see of China, the rich culture and lovely people.

Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful people you get to interact with. So much of the world is out of sight of the western world. I love learning new cultures.

Truly unseen AMAZING China; Nihao & Jiayou ✌✌✌

I am so thankful for your videos. My husband and I spend 3 weeks in China in 1990. It was not too long after the country opened up to the outside world. It was a very difficult experience. I think that's why I appreciate your videos so much. I get to see what I wanted to see way back then. Thank you very much.

Your videos are dangerous to watch at night! I was so hungry I couldn't sleep for a long time. It was so interesting and enjoyable to watch. Especially just the human interaction, how people are still kind to each other, treating, inviting to dinner, spending time together with strangers. In many European countries it seems quite strange :( People forget what communication is :(

Your editing is really top notch. Only shows drone capture if necessary. Sound and sights work perfectly. Nothing flashy. Not overkill. So enjoyable to watch.

I don't speak any Chinese languages, but I can hear some of the differences in tone and dialects. Mixing all that up with all the different local clothing and foods across your videos, I am learning from your films that China is not one country, it is a thousand countries. I love it!

Wow Yunnan province looks like Assam in India. We have many similarities. I hope India n China can become friends❤ Love n respect from India

i loved how the globalization didnt arrived there. Pure culture and unique traditions + the traditional clothes are beatifull. Greatings from Argentina.

12:50 we in Indonesia also have that similar province like Yunnan. North Sulawesi province also known with their exotics food. They said that anything with legs except tables and chairs the Minahasa people will eat it 😂😂😅

Best vlog ever. I'm extremely interested in Tibet, the western part of China and the minorities. I definitely feel the need to know more about Yunnan !! Those trad clothes are awesome. Greetings from the frozen north of Italy ❤

Beautiful sharing this street market, thanks for showing us around!!

Thank you, Yan. You have put your heart’s mission before self! You have placed it before your own personal comforts, safety, stability, even family, relatives and friends. To you, you may never have thought that what you are doing is a sacrifice - because you truly are loving what you are doing - but to me, your heart’s desire is a sacrifice indeed, in order to bless us, your subscribers and viewers with experiences after experiences which I could never, never have gotten on my own or from any other videos. Thank you!❤

谢谢这个视频，这些集市的场景是出生在云南的我所熟悉的，这些老街、烧烤摊子十分的亲切。 你的视频充分展现了原生态的云南，多民族文化的中国。让世界各地的朋友亲眼看一下我们的国家有多少少数民族与汉族一起和平共荣的生活在一起，我们国家对少数民族和他们的文化是十分尊重的。这是少有的国家能做到的。作为汉族的我，小时候还曾羡慕国家给少数民族孩子特殊的优待呢（比如高考加分等等）。

Delicious Food Street

So fascinating - I am falling in love with China through your videos.

I showed your channel to my dad and he has been binge watching your videos every day! He’s soooo happy to find a channel that explores the more rural places of China and does so authentically from the eyes of a Chinese person. Also omg I love the oranges guy that just left his oranges, megaphone, and WeChat QR code alone there hahaha.

I live in Australia, I don't comment much!! but I came across your Vlogs they are amazing you are amazing !!Thankyou for showing us westerners china how amazing love it

Danke für das tolle Video wie cool sind die Strassenmärkte mit so viel leckeren Sachen 🙂

Én nem régen találtam rá a videóidra, de azóta minden nap 3-4 -et megnézek. Nem tudom abbahagyni. Mi világjárók vagyunk, az utazás szerelmesei, és ha épp nem vagyunk úton, akkor is ilyen filmeket nézek. Nagyon sok van a YOUTUBON, de a te munkáid magasan a legjobbak közé tartoznak. Egyszerűen nem fér a fejembe, hogy egy ilyen pici lány, hogy mer egyedül elmenni ezekre a helyekre. A kamera technikád is fantasztikus. A snittek, a zene és az egész ahogyan összeáll csodálatos. Csak ámulok és bámulok ..komolyan..remélem még sokáig teszed ezt. Köszönöm neked az élményeket. Erika Magyarországról. 😊❤❤❤❤❤

Your channel grows with maturity with each vlog. Please keep growing your channel. It is excellent you highlight the different minorities, but also highlight the different foods. It is important you in your way are helping to protect for the future your culture. If you get the opportunity please look at the different building styles eg with no nails and also construction methods in different periods of Chinese history

🎤 Everyone can sing very good 🎶 🎵Also the altitude environment & the traditional dress with women wearing hats puts me in the mind of Peru 🇵🇪

Beautiful costumes and lovely town ❤

Thank you Yan for another great insight into a small place but an important piece of the culture and heritage of China. Watching you from Europe.

I love it when you meet people in the market and call them "brother" and "sister." :)

It's fortunate that you can be anywhere everywhere at anytime thanks for showing us all the lovely scenery & places

Very colorful traditional clothings… love it!!!

Watching your videos, I'm for the first time, getting to know lots about Chinese people, their cultures so diversified and exotic places too.....Excellent presentation 👌👌👌👏👏👏

Was it weird that I was waiting all week for this. I can’t wait to see where your next adventure is!!

I love watching ur videos I'm from the Philippines..china is a beautiful country culture traditions and the people❤

Every one of your videos is fascinating. I thought I wasn’t that interested in traveling to China but now I am! Thank you for making these videos. And let me at that you’re such a lovely person.

Interesting and beatiful presentation, love it

so glad i found your channel the other day. your videos are so well made and educational, as well as being entertaining. the footage you share gives us an almost tangible experience of a truly ‘unseen’ china and of your trek home from europe :) i hope your channel continues to grow so you have the opportunity to make more travel videos for us to enjoy!

Hello Yan, another episode and another peek into unseen China. We can see for ourselves how diverse China is and how respectful the government is of local cultures. We really enjoy your excursions

Thank you so much for your videos. I lived in China for 6 months but I was in Beijing and I didn't get to travel much so I couldn't see all this beauty and culture. I wanna go back and just travel this time, especially to the countryside, and enjoy all the scenery and beautiful ways of living. I love Chinese people. Great channel ❤

Im living vicariously through you, my soul desires to travel to many countries including the countryside of China and India. Congrats on reaching a milestone with subscribers. Looking forward to your next adventure in China ❤ I have Chinese ancestors which makes me one eighth, a tiny portion that im proud of.

I could see myself trying all those bakeries, some look really interesting and it's sooo cheap, 2 yuan for so much of food, countryside price is really something.

Very interesting. With yummy looking food. Thank you ❤

It's true Yan, if we want to know the culture of life and taste the local food in a region or place we visit. The best place to start is a street market like this one. I am from Sabah, North Borneo. And in my place, there is also a traditional market like this. And when I watch this video, I miss my hometown. Thank you for sharing your experience in this place. I present 1 LIKE for this video. Greetings from Singapore.

Amazing to see and experience, as a Chinese myself, I've never experienced all these

I live in Indonesia, we are multi etnics country with different languages too, sometimes we don't understand each other, but no matter where it is, our respon to be polite to people who speaks language we don't understand is same, like "uh uh, yaa, emmhh, oooh.." even we don't understand at all 😂

Your vlogs don't just look good-they're making China look even better. Even though I've been to China many times, it was after watching your series that I truly started to understand what makes China special. During my visit to Beijing, Zhengzhou, and Nanjing in mid-October for the BRF, your videos helped me see the unique charm that defines China.

Thank you for introducing this part of China, rarely seen by foreigners. I love the way you interact with the local people.

organic foods at it's Finest ! 👍👍

for some reason iam addicted to your narration! ❤

I've been watching your videos all day. Thanks for bringing me home, even for a just a moment.

我是建水人，跟着你的视频逛红河州，挺有意思的。你视频质量真好，我尤其喜欢中间穿插的少数民族音乐，让我想起小时候在建水街上闲逛的场景。

I loved this video so much, there's just something about traditional markets that strikes me with wonder. I want to visit China now!

Street markets are really interesting 🌲💚🌲

इंडिया में यह बताया जाता है की चीन में लोकतंत्र नही है। वहां एक देश,एक भाषा,एक संष्कृति की मान्यता है। भारतीय मीडिया भी अक्सर चीन के बारे में नकारात्मक है। आपका वीडियो देखकर पता चलता है की वहां कई भाषा संस्कृति खानपान और परंपराओं से समृद्ध लोग है। भारत की तरह चीन प्राचीन देश है। चीन ने बहुत तरक्की की है। आपके विडियो के माध्यम से चीन को बेहतर तरीके से जानने को मिला। आपका शुक्रिया।

How can you not love China. Its diversities, and its people. ❤

Advance congratulations for your silver play button Yan. Yunnan is unique with their culture, borders and landscape etc. But I saw the Xinjiang and Qinghai region grasslands which are stunning.

Thanks for the beautiful scenery you are showing and really enjoy it. You are very courageous travelling alone and explore so many places and culture of the people that I have never seen before. It is very educating that China has so many natural beauty ans landscape mountains that beyond imagination. Very good video.

Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers, thanks for bringing us around china and showing us!

I haven't commented in a while... but I have been watching everytime you put one out. Thank You again for being our guide to the little-seen parts of China. Cheers and adventure on!

What a wonderful street reporting, a scene we can never seen in other parts of the world.. This brings us back to the early days of the society we encountered before the modernisation of society in China. This is definitely an exciting tour of the market experiencing of the culture and lives of the villagers'. Good efforts and very meaningful ideo indeed. Appreciate that Yan.....!

Those mountains look very much like the Appalachian Mountains here in the US. It must be beautiful! And the food looks very good, too.

Another relaxing and great video to watch on a Saturday. I am a private investor, though in retirement, and in addition to watching the markets in daytime in this part of the world, I also trade NASDAQ stocks night time in New York, of course all online. People are dressed rather thick, as the weather might be cool on higher grounds, very much like Laos which is a country sits on a plateau.Noon would be hot with the sun overhanging over the heads, but evening and night times could be quite cold. When I was growing up as a boy in Laos, I could not possibly differentiate Miao, Yao, Yi, Huang, I have no problem with Dai minority, as I could even isole the Laotian from the Thai, they all come from Dai, as I spoke Thai and Lao in my childhood. I love their cultures and food, though I am a Han, and I see them as part of the greater Chinese ethnicity. I blacked my face, spashed iced cold water, and danced to the rhyme of Dai music, could not tell it might well be from another minority, in the festival of splashing water, their lunar new year, and I also lighted the rocket, made from bamboo shoot filled with self cooked or made gun powder, which shoot into the sky. BTW, a lot of misunderstanding to clarify. The Plain of Jars in fact is a burial place for the indigenoous people of Laos, who dominated Laos a few thousands years before the birth of Jesus Christ. They are not Dai, both Lao and Thai included, but no idea who they were actually. And the group of militia who fought for the CIA during the Vietnamese War were not Miao, the common belief. They were in fact Huang which is a branch of Miao who are more Chinese, as they write and speak Chinese, perhaps much more fluent than this young boy of me, from the top Chinese school called Lao Dou Public School in Vientiane, Laos. Our Chinese teachers were from Taiwan (RoC), and they taught us a very different ideology than what I believe nowadays. We sang their national anthem, and pledged their allegiance, not relevant to me anymore. People smoked water pipe, and in fact Laos produced a lot of tobacco. And the tobacco to pack the Brand 555 which is a franchise of BAT are grown in Laos, and the leaves are fermented in Laos, and packed in Laos, but a great portion of them exported and sold in South East Asia, and even as far as to Hong Kong. The owner of this franchise of distribution in this part of the world, or perhaps just Laos was a Chinese called Cheng. At one time, he could not take delivery of some foreign brands of tobacco imported from overseas, so the whole market did not have foreign cigarettes, and the prices shoot through the roof. My daddy took advantage of it, as the import bank was owned by our extended family, and made his first bucket of gold. The barzaars at my times in Laos could possibly split between covered ones in the urban, and open air ones in the country side. In all, they were relatively smaller than the ones seen here in the video, but in no way less vibrant I must say. I am glad to see that the people in the street markets in the video are dressed nicely and perhaps feed to full stomach, and they are all happy, and must be living a much better life, here they come a long way indeed. I am sure there might be many people from Laos, who now live in US watching your video, to get a fond memory of their days in Laos, very much like me, though I am now in Singapore. I am bringing my family to Laos this December, and quite a number of them first time to this far away country, though in fact, it is just within a 4 hours flight by air. Thumbs up indeed. I really enjoy watching the video.

The juxtaposition of WeChat payment systems, based on advanced technologies/physics/chemistry, and a 'rustic' market scene is mind-blowing.

I live in London and it's so refreshing to see your fascinating videos of China, areas where I'm unable to visit.

lovely , great format , is what I want to see when I travel, not the "grand tourist destinations" those all begin to look alike very quickly. 10👍/ 10👍

Congratulations Yan... almost 100k subscribers 🎉 keep it up! Greetings from Malaysia 🇲🇾

Amazing & lively video. What makes it so special is seeing smiling, happy children. When we see children who are loved and nourished, we see not only their smiles but also the future. China has such amazing diversity among its people that learning about them in a video simply enchants us. Personally love history, especially of China and its archeological discoveries that push back the age of its culture. Seeing diverse people, customs and markets in China actually links us to that past.😊

The clothes are so beautiful! It's nice to see these traditions so alive. Thank you for the awesome video.

Your videos makes us feel we are travelling with you...❤❤

I am happy that you have reached your first 100k subscribers. Thank you for taking us along your journey to less traveled parts of China. Your videos are always great to watch.

I adore street markets! Thank you for taking us to this especially exotic one!

I started watching when you were still in Europe. This is now my very favorite Chinese vlog.

I love the colors that are part of their dress and customs. Color is a way to show our humanity and uniqueness in culture. I feel great peace in this town. Their children are well-fed and safe, I cannot imagine muggers or carjacking in this place. Tai haole! From Canada.

Watching LCE's video while drinking coffee feels like you are there, thank you LCE for the video, always healthy greetings👍🫡🫡🤝☕️☕️

Fantastic video, I feel like I've been to that place with you. Thanks for making these as I probably will not get the chance to travel in China. I like the kind of travel that avoid the tourist hot spots

Hi Yan ! Hope You Are OK and Happy! Beautiful Yunnan ! Many Thanks for Your Time on Making This Amazing Videos for All of Us. God Bless You ! Fernando

Very good travel series. The story telling, scenary, folk music background, food, local interaction, etc. Simply awesome! Your channel will thrive at no time. Keep up the good work 👏👏👍👍

Marvellous market highlights❤❤

Thanks a lot, for the opportunity to traveling around China without a visa, Internet has make the world more connected

Love your videos. They are amazing and informative, so natural, so colourful. I feel as if I am visiting this market. I so appreciate the effort you put into showing us around the market.

Hermosa niña me gusta tus videos culturales de China, felicidades a todas

The song sung at the begining of the video (2:13) was amazing. The intonations remind me of Native American folk music. If you played that at the annual Gathering of Nations, everyone would be asking, "What tribe is that?"❤

I love your videos, I have been to China many times and wish I was there with you to share the experience. I hope to go back this year so looking forward to it I miss it greatly

Thank you for showing the diverse cultural traditions of China which we do not get to see in other media.

These are just amazing. A street market is great all over the world! So interesting to see so many new things. You are bringing us all a wonderful view of your country. I love the singing! You said you were grateful for Englush tips? Sew is pronounced so. Don't ask me why. So (also) is sow- when we sow seeds. But not sow, a lady pig! She rhymes with cow.

Congratulations on your fine work in showing parts of the real China. I really appreciate it!

Very interesting to see the old and different cultures of China. Even a bit emotional for some of us with ancestral ties.

Thank you for this beautiful and relaxing video. I enjoy learning about different ethnic minorities in China, and seeing the food and beautiful places there in your videos online. Take care. ❤

*CONGRATULATIONS FOR WHEN YOU HIT 100K SUBS TODAY...!!!* Amazing videos - you so deserve it.

Love these outdoor food stalls, although it tends to make the place dirty but the atmosphere is so much better than any in house stores they've made the vendors move into in some cities/towns.

Thanks Yan. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. It is so nice to see ethinic minorities have preserved their traditions customs and languages. Place looks so peaceful and Prosperous.

I love your videos. I only wish I was thirty years younger so I could move there and experience all of this beauty.

I am one of your fan and I have shared your videos with my friends. We hope one day we would visit Yuanyang. The best part of any new places is the wet market. You immerse yourselves in local delicacies & culture. Thank You for this awesome video.

i Love your videos. The people, food, the scenery and your commentary through out the video i really appreciate and the Drone shots are just beautiful. Thank you for uploading great content. Yunnan is a beautiful place i would love to visit one day.

Yan, thanks for another lovely video. Really enjoy watching the vibrant scenes of the morning market. I love going to morning markets too.❤❤

Hello Lice, I love the market video's . Thank you
