If there is a topic that is the hottest on the short video platform today, most Chinese people travel to China.
The travel videos posted by these people have also become the "electronic mustard" for many people, and have also become the traffic password for some bloggers.
However, it can be seen from these foreign bloggers who post travel videos that they have different understandings of China.

British couple travels to China on a budget
A couple from the United Kingdom decided to take advantage of the 144-hour visa waiver policy to travel to China for a few days.
They had never been to China before, and their knowledge of China was limited to what the Western media portrayed.
Unlike many people, they prefer to believe what they see with their own eyes, rather than biased reports.
However, although the couple chose to travel thousands of miles to China, the way they chose to travel was to travel on a budget, which also added a lot of highlights to their videos.
Before they traveled, they first learned about the 144-hour visa-free policy implemented by China, but this seems to be their only strategy.
The British couple's last stop in exploring China was Thailand, so they arrived in China from Thailand.
The couple also followed their own rules of budget travel, flying on a low-cost airline from Thailand, which did not offer anything, including meals.
Therefore, the couple bought a loaf of bread before getting on the plane and shared it between the two of them, which made the couple stick to it all night until 2:00 a.m. before landing in Beijing.
Before you came to China, you listened to your friends tell you about what you saw and heard after coming to China, and everyone gave a high evaluation.
Therefore, such an evaluation also moved the couple, and the two chose to travel to China during the convenient period of the 144-hour visa-free policy.
After arriving at Daxing International Airport, they also praised the speed of China's entry, but also thanks to the fact that they had made relevant preparations before coming.
After arriving at the airport, they also praised the airport for looking very clean, but because it was 2:00 in the morning, many shops were not open, and a friendly girl helped them leave the airport by car.
Since they did not apply for a calling card in advance before coming to China, there were some problems at the beginning of the trip.
Google Maps, which they relied on for survival, did not work here, so they stayed on the street until 3:30 a.m.
Fortunately, after a long walk down the street, they finally arrived at the hotel and started to rest.
As can be seen from their video, it was already dawn in Beijing at this time, but the couple knew from Thailand that they had been eating a loaf of bread when they stayed in the hotel.
Early the next morning, the first task they did when they went out was to get a calling card for themselves, but it was still not good for them to get out.
Under the guidance of the clerk, they finally found a relatively large business hall.
It is worth mentioning that they did not eat when they reissued their calling cards, and anything was even the bread they ate on the flight.
Finally, after a lot of hardship, the calling card was finally installed on their mobile phones, which also means that their trip to China can finally start officially.
Although they started off like a human embarrassment, everything became easy once they got familiar with the process.
It seems that the first impression of all external bloggers who travel to China is that China is quiet, which is also something that many Chinese people do not expect.
However, the couple also quickly discovered that some attractions in Beijing required reservations, so they saved a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Finally the couple remembered to soothe their stomachs, and they chose to head to the alley for some snacks.
After passing through some dazzling snack bars, they chose Shaxian snacks all over China and ate their first meal in China.
After eating, they chose to wander around the alley, but the twisting terrain of the alley still made them lost.
But as they say, the residents of the alley are very friendly, because the middle-aged men also show them the way in English.
Like Chinese tourists, they are easily seduced by the snacks on the side of the road, and they stop when they see an attractive one.
But in the end, they chose two pastries, and sat directly on the side of the road and began to eat, at which time there was also a small episode, they underestimated the temperature of the freshly baked pastries.
However, the "arrogance" of Westerners also gradually appeared in this boy,
It is clear from his words that he is very uncomfortable in this country, and most people do not know how to communicate with them in English.
But there was no such situation when I traveled before, and netizens in the comment area also caught this point instantly.
After buying some things from the convenience store, they finally ended their first day in Beijing.
With the deepening of the trip to Beijing, the couple also really felt the enthusiasm of the Chinese,
The couple's main mode of travel in Beijing is the subway, and they were surprised by the number of security personnel in the subway.
On the second day, they chose the most luxurious shopping mall in Beijing, but maintained their poor tourist personality – just shopping, not buying.
Eventually, they came out of the mall and chose Snow King's ice cream, and were impressed by their price and taste.
At this time, they have already begun to sigh: the Chinese are so good!
Like Chinese tourists to Beijing, they also went to the ancient building area that everyone longed for, and they seemed to have really been impressed by Beijing snacks and began to dare to try.
They also stressed again and again that it was very quiet and that everyone was living their lives in an orderly manner.
Biscuits, sugar gourds, dumplings are all objects they try, and when eating sugar gourds, they have questions about hawthorn.
Surprisingly, there was one more thing the couple had always wanted to do on their trip to China, like exploring Niujie.
Prior to this, the Western media had reported that China's religious beliefs were completely untrue, and the couple wanted to find out.
But what they didn't expect was that the people of Cow Street were completely different from everyone else. There are even many people who can speak English.
epilogue
This trip to China also completely dispelled the couple's previous prejudice against China.
The most common things you hear from their videos are "China is safe" and "Chinese are friendly".
In response to reports of demonization in the Western media, the couple also simply believed what they saw with their own eyes.
Netizens often ridicule: The person in front of the invention of 144 hours is simply a genius.
I hope that more international friends will come to China to feel the shock that China has brought to them!
