@@KennyHellooh, we had a layover in Chengdu last October and had planned to see the pandas but didn’t have enough time. So it’s still on our bucketlist, pretty far on the top 🐼 Have you been and can you recommend it?
China also has to thank Germany for the solar panel technology. The German government cancelled the subsidies, resulting in the whole production line (and personnel) being transferred to China.
4 years ago my wife and I went to China for the wedding of my youngest son to a beautiful and intelligent young Chinese girl. Our experience was truly fabulous. We also traveled on the super fast train from Beijing to Shanghai. China with its high technology made us feel like we were in a different world, truly fascinating. China is a country with an ancient and rich culture.
Your kids are so lucky to have a pair of parents who have open-mind, they have a chance to see the real world looks like instead of sitting in the couch watching BBC to make up stories about China everyday
Highest praises to you, for taking the time and effort to tell the truth about China. Thank you both for helping out those less fortunate westerners who are deeply brainwashed by their politically-charged media and politicians.
It's great that you have made the world aware of how safe and unrestricted China is, as opposed to the dire warnings that are broadcast by western media.
To be honest,. western and European countries don't look beautiful anymore. And they don't have modern towns, village and cities. China is a home of all kinds of modern things. China is a paradise on earth.
We understand that. The most surprising fact for us is the RAPID development of (not just small but huge) projects in so many Asian countries, not just in China. Why does everything futuristic seem „bad“ (not secure enough, too expensive, not ecofriendly enough, …) at home at first?🤷♀️ #toomanydiscussions #noprogress
It is not the fault of the landscape. But the prejudgment that US cold war mentality trying to brainwash every western kid is just ugly. China don't have the same prejudgment everyone in the west is bad. The media have been bombarded everyone with negative China, Russian, and Arab news. You will find even many Arabs and Persians are a lot friendlier than what Americans perceived.
very nice, worthy to note, China's years' of air pollution management has taken great progress, we will see more blue sky and white clouds days in the coming years, way to go!
Absolutely love your beautiful trip experience in China. Shanghai is so clean and magnificent. By watching your video, we truly feel the bright side of human engineering and development. Hate war and fighting, love peace and harmony. From Orlando USA
Thank you for the sharing. Lets us all work for a peaceful world where our children can live, work, raise their kids and travel around safely; like what you and your family are enjoying now in Shanghai.
Shanghai Disney land lot of foreigners enjoying. Heavy recommended from foreign. Family of 5 has lots of fun. Lots of rides and lots of restaurants to eat. Many children don’t want to leave the place. Shanghai is a futuristic city.
@@our-travel-journal tips: don‘t go to Disneyland on Saturday or Monday or any national holiday, because there would be too many people and the queue is so long. or you could by fast pass for five people
I live in Shanghai and every time I visit Europe I am always fascinated by the peaceful and simple life in rural areas, especially the German speaking countries. As the proverb goes "La vie est ailleurs" Your children are truly lucky to have you show them around the world and experience different ways of life.
This is absolutely amazing..... I have travel to Shanghai in 2014 after seeing your Video it has refresh me some of the places i been .. feel like going again.... Thank you for sharing this nice video.
Being a Shanghainese who’s been living overseas for decades, I was really touched by wonderful video on touring the city with your amicable voice over and spectacular shots. I really love the background music you chose for the video. Hope you continue your journey in China with many memorable moments and experiences. Your kids seem to be very interested in what you were doing there❤
Thank you for sharing your adventure. Your video was so immersive that for 30 minutes I felt i was there myself with y'all. Keep travelling and have a safe journey.
Before covid the maximum speed was from the maglev 431 km/h, now it´s limited and the highspeed bullet train is quicker and drives 350 km/h, but next year there would be a new train with 400 km/h.
This was a top-tier video with great audio and visuals and amazing voice to narrate the content. Almost like a documentary. You have a beautiful family and thank you for showing me parts of Shanghai I’ve not been to yet. My first time visiting was in 2002, then 2007 and the last 2016. Each visit was dramatically different than previous. Looking forward to watching your old contents and new ones to come. Liked and subbed!
I really appreciate your family video! The nightlife in Chinese cities is very exciting! I suggest making videos in these area. Looking forward to your new videos!
It was sweet: in minute <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="526">8:46</a> kids will be kids in the sweets section :) I thought the tunnel was made of glass that you could see the water; but I too agree that the tunnel experience is only once in a lifetime fun ride.
Love your way of documenting this travel-calmly, respectful and honest! Your tone was gentle and especially like to see how your children enjoyed the experiences! Thanks for engaging your children to talk in German, and thoughtful of you to give us translation!! What a lovely family!! I am attracted by your family’s reaction and love seen throughout!! Bless your heart and children!🎉🎉🎉
Lovely family. Did you experience the feeling of a roller coaster when the maglev train turned?This is the most impressive feeling I have on the maglev train
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="605">10:05</a> Sesame balls or 煎堆 in Cantonese. It seems westerners really like their taste. My coworkers from west Asia enjoyed them a lot.
I used to live 10 minute walk from Lujiazui when I first moved to China 11 years ago and did my weekend shopping at Super Mall. I loved living there and every weekend I'd walk around the area. I worked in that area. The Shanghai Tower was still being built and I recall the year it opened, unfortunately that New Years eve there was a stampede at the Bund as it was packed with people.
Like the simple way you describe your journey with your family! Thank you ! Wishing you wonderful trips in all the cities you’re going to visit in China
Great China content. You all managed to do a lot in one single day. I just subscribed to your channel and liked the video of course :) It was great. And it is amazing to see when countries cooperate and share and transfer technology, like in the case of MAGLEV technology that saw German companies Siemens and ThyssenKrupp share with and transfer their technology to China.
Wow the sky looks so blue completely different from those orangey skies way back in 2000 when I was there. This video is important for German viewers where 80% of the people dislike China according to surveys.
I think the orange sky you are talking about must not be in Shanghai.Maybe it’s Beijing, because it’s close to Mongolia, and there are sandstorms from Mongolia every winter.That's not pollution, it's the environment being destroyed and turned into a desert.
The real futuristic city in China is Shenzhen, and China's tech lifestyle usually lands there first, and then spreads to other cities a few years later
@@our-travel-journal President Xi Jingpin once said this to American students while he was visiting US: If you want to know the 3000 year history of China, visit Xi'an. If If you want to know the 1000 year history of China, visit Beijing. If you want to know the present of China, visit Shanghai. If you want to know the future of China, visit Shenzhen.
Thank you for your wonderful sharing of real Shanghai, love to see the blue sky, green and tidiness there. So glad you all enjoyed so much in China, your kids are so well behaved. Wishing you all more wonderful times in China 👍🥰🎉🎉
Maglev initially based on German technology from Siemens is not totally a Chinese project and the latest one that will cover Shanghai to Beijing at speeds of 1000 km/hr is all homemade.
What an adorable family! Your kids will be grateful of your taking them to see a real China and open their minds. That would be good for them in lifetime. BTW, thank you for reminding me of my wonderful exprience in SH Tower in 2022. Big thumb up!
Thank you for sharing this to us. Your children are so lucky to have you and your husband as their parents. An open-minded, educated and well-formed couple.
I lived here in Shanghai for over 12 years, thanks for your nice tourism video, I’ve never taken the maglev train, waitan tunnel sightseeing and the top floor of Shanghai tower. it’s really informative and saved my money😂
Wonderful China! I used GOOGLE to search for relevant information, and it was shocking!China is still expanding its high speed train network year in year out until 2035 to 70,000 kms, now is 42000ish. Last year they have laid 2082 kms, so every year till then China will lay 2200 kms of new high speed train network average until 2035. Ever since Japan started to build up their high speed train network till today since 1964, they had only 2830 kms built up in 59 years, so one year of new Chinese high speed train net work extension almost equal 80% of Japan’s total 59 years built up. Yet In 2008, California voted yes to build the nation's first high-speed railway. The plan is to build an electric train that will connect Los Angeles and San Francisco in two hours and forty minutes. But 15 years later, there is not a single mile of track laid, and there isn't enough money to finish the project, let along the total cost is estimated at $128 billion high already and getting higher every year.
@@johankasandarwi5093 Because the US government hates China very much. Just look at the US presidential election and you will know that they all directly regard China as an enemy.
Unbelievable!❤ In July we heard on the German news that many main train tracks in Germany will get remodeled within the next few years and we should celebrate the start of this project … you don’t want me to say the number of km out loud 🙈 it would be so embarrassing 😂🤣
@@our-travel-journal Germany's high-speed rail is very good. But as long as Western countries have electoral systems, many plans will be overturned by the next government just because the prime minister changes. The German Green Party likes to use environmental issues to block many infrastructure constructions.
