Whether you are thinking about living in China or Japan, visiting, or just curious about it this video can help you. I have lived in China and Japan since 2012 and lived in both capitals. Let’s compare Beijing and Tokyo. I spent two years living in Beijing and two years in Tokyo. So, which one is better? From ski resorts to waterfalls, both cities have a lot going for them. You decide!

  1. There are a lot more to do and to see in Beijing comparing to Tokyo.

  2. What parts of Beijing have you been to? Since I started looking for gold in Beijing, i've gone to many places. One such place recently was Longmenjian scenic spot. Very nice place. Only down side is 40rmb each. Amazingly, if you search longmenjian in youtube, only 2 vids come up..both mine. LOL There are other vids up..but the title is in Chinese It's not a common sightseeing spot for people I imagine.

  3. It wouldn't be good if you slipped on those stairs on the Great Wall, I'd love to have a walk through a bamboo forest that would be cool. Both places have interesting places to visit, nowadays it definitely impossible to go anywhere in the world that doesn't have pollution which is really sad. Right now I'd be glad to go anywhere.

  4. Beijing is so big ,and a lot of history culture and buildings ,You just stay a little district in beijing ,and pretend you know beijing ,FUNNY

  5. 北京面积和整个日本关东平原的面积差不多,北京有3000年建城史,800年建都史,东京有的北京一样都不缺,什么樱花,玉渊潭公园就有,这个公园在4月份都是樱花盛开啊,如果评比古迹,北京甩东京十条街,现代建筑北京有金融区,最高楼中国尊高达530米,如果北京不限高,随便比东京,北京密云,怀柔,延庆等区县,都是流水潺潺,气候湿润的,北京是温带季风性气候,降雨集中在7,8月份,其他月份少雨,你根本就不了解北京,在北京呆了2年,就去爬个长城,划雪,就按照美国人的思维,认为你就了解了北京,太好笑了,你在北京呆10年我们再说了解北京的话吧

  6. I want to visit both but I eventually want to move to China eventually. In terms of Japan I am more interested in Hokkaido anyway

  7. Definitely I prefer Japan and Tokyo. My favourite country and capital. I am from Europe, but the spirit and the people in Japan are absolutely different. I love Tokyo!

  8. I definitely would love to go to both Beijing and Tokyo, both places looks amazing. That slide from the great wall looks like way too much fun (after a crazy workout to get to the top, that is), I think it's a very clever way to get back down.

  9. I would think there's a much larger difference in the individual rights and property ownership between the two as well. Everything in China is essentially rented out by the CCP as the entire country is dominated by the communists. But Japan has a much different system of public control that allows for individuals to actually own their own property and businesses

  10. I really wanna go to japan or china
    because of the food and culture ☺️
