Up oh my gosh are you scared I’m scared  now that we got a walk on the edge coming Back [Music] okay so now we’ve got to the very  end here I thought the end was over there but it’s   actually here and as you can see everyone is on  the edge now this is more exciting right are you  

Ready all right let’s go all right let’s do this  oh my gosh oh my gosh oh gosh you have to look   where you’re going this is like scary scary oh my  my goodness okay here comes Sophia this is scary  

You can do [Music] it I think you’re pretty scared  right youan is quite scared I Can Tell She’s like   holding on to this really much I’m like I think  it gets get easier the more you go but it’s still  

Is quite scary to be honest I love chong ching  I love love chong ching you love chong ching you   both love Chongqing yeah [Music] y so you’re in  a hurry well you better calm down we’re all you  

Just join the how are you going I think you’re  scared it’s okay you won’t fall I promise guys   I don’t know if she likes us anymore because we’ve  taken her on this dangerous Adventure you’re doing   great yeah you’re doing so good it’s actually  really cool all what we’re seeing here today  

Sophia we’re going to today as well so see that  theater down there this big building here we’re   going there tonight wow it feels like this city  sort of feels a little bit like in New York but  

Like sort of the layout like with the river  and stuff yeah I love this city I love this   city too we have so much more planned today so  yeah let’s go off to the next activity [Music]

Now now we just just going to explore more  of this Old Town here as you can see it’s   so beautiful and like it’s so weird right  you got all these skyscrapers but here you   got all these Old Town buildings it’s  such an irony isn’t it and one thing  

I really like about this spot is there’s  not really a lot of people which is quite   nice sometimes Chinese tourist attractions  can get really really busy and filled with People wow so they have happy birthday  as well yes ah Jun sh ah okay I   was showing off my Chinese but  not impressed okay sh [Music] [Music] sh this is one thing I want to talk about  though in China that is a little bit strange they  

Build all of these big structures they build  all these restaurants all of this but sometimes   it just doesn’t get used because there’s so much  infrastructure it’s crazy I feel like that there   needs to be another 30 million people added to  this city even know it’s a city of 34 million  

I believe okay so right now we’re going into Mena  coffee which I believe is a popular coffee chain   here in China so let’s go in and check it out so  we’re just sitting in the coffee shop I’m really  

Excited to try my coffee so um I wanted that  coffee so bad that I forgot to film it I drank   the whole thing but right now what we’re doing is  we’re going down to the river here we’re going to  

Get the ferry across and uh yeah see what a fer  is like here in Chongqing which should be really   cool the ferry terminal opens at 5:00 and it’s  now4 2 5 so we’re just making our way there so  

Yeah let’s go should be fun okay so you might also  be wondering where does everyone charge all their   electric vehicles well you can see here there’s a  whole heap of EV Chargers this whole parking lot   here is filled with electric vehicle Chargers  which is really cool and this is the first lot  

I’ve seen in Chongqing today but I may have not  been looking properly but that’s really cool to   see so yeah so right now we’ve made it down to  the bottom floor we were just up there and uh  

Yeah now we got to go and get the fairy are you  just admiring the beautiful buildings okay so   down here this is our Ferry I’m really really  excited for this I haven’t been on a ferry in  

A while too and Sophia you’ve only ever been  on one right when I don’t know where were we   in Thailand in Thailand yeah we went on a ferry  in Thailand so the ferry leaves at 5:00 and it’s  

Almost 5 so we got to keep going okay here we go  walking on now this is so cool they’ve got these   little like barges here that like put you onto  the ferry cuz the ferry is so big so it’s sort  

Of hard to get off on the side here okay cool so  we’re now up on the ferry we just made it in time   and uh yeah we’re going to be going across there  China we love China I think right now we’re going  

Somewhere over there so that should be good and  this is the area we’re actually staying actually   I know that I’ve said this a million times  already but it’s so sad The Bleak sky today   such a bummer but um a lot of the Drone footage  I’ll show today is like really really clear and  

Nice Skies so you can actually see what it’s  normally like but today we’ve just been really   unlucky with that so you can see this boat just  here it sort of looks like that there’s three  

Houses just put on top it’s like a house boat a  massive fairy house boat okay right on 5:00 we’re   now moving wow this looks really cool I really  like the uh Chinese flag back here [Music] too

[Music] so the uh tickets for this Ferry Believe  It or Not were really really cheap at only $4   per person which is such great value for what  you’re getting it’s like sort of a mini tour   of the city but also transport as well for  only $4 so here behind me is actually what  

I was talking about before we went to last night  as you can see from these drone shots here this   just looks amazing at night time but in the day  when it’s a little bit foggy like this it looks  

A little bit different but I could imagine in  the summertime this would just look so beautiful   but because it’s winter you know it still looks  good but not as good as what it could [Music] be

Okay so we’re now off the ferry we actually  had to get off a stop earlier uh because it’s   too shallow to go to the other side so I think  now we have to get a taxi to go to the other  

Side so far so good today’s been really really  lovely experience when we were just on the ferry   then these two girls came up to me and said can  we have a photo and I said sure let me just get  

My fiance and we all took a photo together and it  was nice out practicing their English also that’s   one thing that I’ve noticed in China is people  like to practice their English especially the   little kids as well their parents will say go  speak English to The Foreigner go speak English  

To The Foreigner kids will practice so sort of  cute okay so right now we’re just climbing all   the way up here to go to another part of the city  so then we can see the view all over Chongqing and  

Different things so yeah we got to climb up these  stairs so let’s go so another thing I want to   mention as well is there’s a lot of Tourism here  in Chongqing now it’s not tourism like myself or   or Sophia it’s actually local tourism so Chinese  people coming from all different cities whether  

That be Shenzhen or Wuhan or Beijing a lot of  different Chinese people all around China come   to Chongqing and experience it like all the  people in the ferry they are taking photos   and everything but they’re from different parts  of China experiencing Chongqing so it’s sort of  

Like a local [Music] tourism I don’t know if  this is some type of key anti- camera protest   put a camera in a cage but yeah okay and this  says keep fighting I don’t know I don’t want to  

Say anti-government restaurant but it feels that  way okay so we’ve now came up to the top here the   top view and as you can see behind us we’ got the  bridge as well so there’s a whole heap of little  

Coffee shops and everything up here where you  can sit and just chill but yeah right now I think   we’re walking just along here along this uh sort  of Cliff side to another part of uh of the city

Yeah such a cool building wow I just want to be  a Spider-Man and like you know like do this and   that and fly around every building you want to  be Spider-Man and fly around the city yes okay  

Let’s do it let’s do it well you’re a Spider-Man  oh yeah I’m a Spider-Man everyone says that I look   like Andrew everyone says that I look like Andrew  Garfield in the comments let me know if you think [Music] so

Okay so we’re now at the Chongqing Grand Theater  we’re actually not going in but this building is   absolutely massive and the design of this is like  insane so cool so yeah this is the other side of  

The river now and as you can see this is where  we were up this morning doing the Skywalk so   we’ve almost done a full 360 of the entire city  which is pretty cool you’ll see once this city  

Here lights up you know this will just like that  and uh yeah it it will just light up and you’ll   think that you’re somewhere in Tokyo or something  like that but no this is China not Japan also here  

In China they have these drink vending machines  like in Japan which is pretty cool so they have   all cold ones and then you can also some vending  machines have hot ones as well so you could get a  

Hot coffee as well so pretty cool Okay so we’ve  now found this secret little passageway to go   down here on the river to get a whole view of a  local view of the lights when it lights up so yeah  

Let’s go down this little walkway here I think  there’s people maybe fishing down here also let’s [Music] see oh so you can see these big  chains here that’s for the boats when   they dock how cool is that I’ve never  seen chains this big before wow so I  

Think we’ll just sit down here there’s  a few people sitting down here as well   look at the bridge light up and yeah just  enjoy the view should be pretty [Music] cool so as you can see here behind me  there’s a whole heap of people sitting  

Out here and they’ll sit on these chairs  and watch all of this ligh up so right now   what we’re going to do is we’re going to go  and get a hot pot which is uh quite a famous  

Thing here in Chongqing so you cook your own  vegetables and meat uh in like a massive Hot   Pot uh like hot boiling water which should  be cool I’ve only ever done that once before   but I’ve never done it in China nor like  in Chinese style so that should be really

Good so yeah we just got in the taxi and  we said take us to the best hot pot place   and he’s dropped us here on the side of the  road and I believe the HP pop place is down   here somewhere so yeah should be good I’m  excited are you excited yeah yeah should  

Be good so these are the old houses here  along the river and in one of these houses   is where our hot pot is so yeah let’s  go and find that I’m really really Keen   to try Chinese hot pot I’m so excited it  should be good I think we’ll even be able  

To eat outside tonight it is like a little bit  cold but not too cold so I think it should be good [Music] Okay so we’ve just came to the hot  pop place this is our menu here it’s all in  

Chinese but uh we’ll figure it out so uh these  people here behind us you can see this is what   the Hot Pot looks like so there’s a big sort  of stove in the middle and you can cook all  

Your different bits you get vegetables meat  spicy not spicy have the penis the penis and   the testicles oh my gosh are we going  to try that today who’s the animal oh   yeah not human I know that okay so we’ve got  some traditional Chinese tea here let’s give
