Hello Wolter and greetings from Greece!!! If you ever go back to China do you have plans of visiting Chongqing?I’ve heard it’s a very large and beautiful city and in the last 5 years has developed a lot, if you ever go will you do this kind of video with positive and negative things of the city? I’m really interested in your videos!!!
Thank you!
Pretty reasonable! good job!
Whaaah, i’m gonna go in november! So excited! I’m a female travelling alone, so if you happen to have any more tips and/or recommendations i’d like to know! Thanks for this awesome video!
Your videos are really awesome! And very informative.
Thank you so much for making this video ! Welcome to Beijing again !
The Ming Tomb is kind of spooky to me though. A lot of urban legends about it …

Nice Video Mark! I plan on visiting Beijing in July. Do you recommend I get any vaccinations? I hear the water quality is poor and there is a higher chance of getting TB, hepatitis etc…. The shots are rather pricey though, thanks for the help!
how did you travel in Beijing? Is public transportation easy to use? and how did you communicate? great video thank you.
Great video! What section of the great wall did you go to? I went to the Badaling section during my school trip. It was crowded but our tour guide said the views were worth it and he was right!
Looking forward to our first trip to Beijing, China. Many thanks to you and your beautiful family for posting these great, informative videos!
Fucking disliked. HORRIBLY MADE video.
you made me homesick, a lot. lol.
GW 1 day. FCity and square togethet 1 Day. Summer Palace and T of Heaven together 1 day. Lama temple and Nanluogu 1 day.
so beautiful wife
Really, I think the beihai park is bit old now. I suggest Jingshan Park, really cheap ticket. However on top of the hill, you will get to see the whole forbidden city!
I would do soooo many things to get the chance to go to China. One day I will go for sure! It looks beautiful and I love all the temples. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Damn your wife though. Beijing is so beautiful
nice video! is that easy to go to places by metro or train? (without taxi) like from airport to the sites?
is your wife foreign?
did you photoshop the sky>???hahahah
Love your video.I am Chinese .I’ve been to Beijing twice and I REALLY LOVE this city and the traffic is becoming better now.
Great video – just one quick question, how many days in beijing would you need to cover most/ all of these sites?
Mark, awesome guide and you have a very beautiful wife. Going to Beijing this first of October I can’t wait! Good Job! 🙂
I am in China and l met Donald Trump
My parents moved to Beijing for work so I have a lot of time checking all your things out! Thank you so much!
Another great video… thanks for your help!
what about the best places for shoping ?
Been there about 15-20 times for business since 2000, but one thing I recommend… call it BeiJing, not BeiZHing. All of my colleagues from there corrected me on my first trip. BeiZHing sounds exotic and all, but it’s just a simple “J” sound.
Also, I recommend any street market that *doesn’t* look like a mall for some real haggling. The Xiu Shui market near the China World hotel used to be a bunch of outdoor stalls, but was turned into a 7-story complex a few years back, and really lost its fun. Go find a smaller place to shop for clothes, bags, etc… it’s really all the same stuff you’re buying regardless of what stall you go to, and remember their job is to get as much profit out of your transaction as possible, but a lot of times the workers are students, and the opportunity to converse (usually in English) with foreigners can often leads them to be able to further their education, or get a “real” job elsewhere.
Definitely walk through some hutongs if – and while – you can. It’s a fantastic preserved way of life from not that long ago, but that real estate is worth a fortune to the city, and who knows how much longer they’ll survive before being torn down and replaced with yet another high-rise building or mall.
And DO NOT go to Starbucks, or McDonald’s, or KFC… stop the spread and eat local. Otherwise, great advice!
what about the olympic park? that was pretty sick too 🙂
Hi Mark, you’re such an inspiration for me, thanks for all those great video, I can’t stop watching them! I’m an 18 year old German currently living in Madrid (gap year) and I absolutley love travelling and living abroad 🙂 Greetings from Spain
I absolutely enjoy just seeing your videos, even though I probably am never going to be in any of these amazing places! Keep up.
How can you afford to travel so much? Honest question, I’m interested in traveling but currently I can’t going too many places. I’ve been to Colombia, South America and Mexico, and I might go to France this year, but not without a lot of saving and fundraising. What sort of profession do you have? Thanks!
Another great, well made video.
Great video, great place
And gorgeous wife 😉
actually the attractions he suggest are only suitable for old guys, young people will never go to that kinds of places in Beijing…
I am in China now… Thanks for your videos. A great help!!!
Very nice video. Thank you.
I love your videos thanks bro
Around what time of the year would you recommend to go?
Great video with lots of good information. I’m traveling to Beijing in 2 weeks and am worried about the severe air pollution. Hope it turns out well when I get there. Fingers crossed!
How crowded is the place?
How far is the Great Wall is from the Beijing airport, and what is the best way to get there?
The weather looked amazing when you were there. Blue skies and almost smog free.
Is it expensive?
