This isn't the first 'China is not what you think it is vlog' on YouTube. It might not be even the first 1,000 BUT we have to say. It's all true.

We just landed in Beijing, China and have had one of the best days of travel that we've had in a long time. The Forbidden city, Tiananmen Square and eating with locals had Beijing feeling like rewinding the clock to when we first started international travel. Such an exciting culture shock and so different to anywhere else we've been!

If you're thinking about a trip to China, this China Vlog is your sign to book it!
