Thank you for showing true China at the world where people have used to make truth as liese and make lies as truth. Today, on Earth, this kind of peaceful life can only be found in China. If, in the United States, the beacon of democracy, there would be gunshots fired several times, and people would run away crying or lying in a pool of blood. This happened in a peaceful era, in a country that was ruined by freedom and democracy.

Just when I am about to give up on America, someone comes along and opens my eyes to see angels live among...well war mongers. Thanks so much Samantha for reminding me that even in America, there are people who are capable of redeeming it.

In 2001, I led a group of students and teachers to visit the terracotta warriors in Xi'an, and interestingly, the person who discovered this was there signing autographs. He seemed like an ordinary person. Your video is wonderful–easily the best I have seen! It's great to see you having fun there.Thank you!

18:03 I think you asked a very meaningful question. 70 years ago China's urban rate is < 10%, so over 90% of Chinese are farmers/peasants living rural life; today it's 65% urbanization, this transition happens within 3 generations. A typical family today have grandparents who live a whole life in rural, the core couple who grew up in rural then moved into cities after higher education, and grandkids who are born and raised completely in cities. A village like Yuan's, which is close to a big city like Xi'An, represents a nostalgia of a family's rural legacy, a life style which younger generation would not experience. And for visitors from other parts of China, this rural landscape & culture is different from their home ones becuase of the unique terrain and weather in northwest.

Your enthusiasm, curiosity, and fearlessness is so captivating to watch as you travel the world introducing me to so many new experiences.  Thank you!!

I went to Xi’an once in 2002, no metro, old airport, the new big plaza just finished, the driver/tour guide told us the city is so old even their dog food bowls are often antique.  Xi’an museum and Buddha relic temple displaying the rarest green color china and unbelievable gold thread woven are unforgettable.  Now that I’m retired and Covid is relaxed, I plan to visit Xi’an next spring and hope to follow the Silk Road in this trip.  Thank you for the video.

I love your show.  The only thing deters me from traveling across time zone is jet lags.  It’s so uncomfortable and I forget what I experienced after back home because of jet lag.

One information is missing: these terra-cotta warriors were buried  more than 15Km away from the actual tomb of the 1st emperor of China. His tomb is at the bottom of a hill. Chinese archeologists have not touched the tomb yet.

Xi'an has changed a lot since I left in the late 90s, or you can say it hasn't changed that much at all... after all, what's 30 years worth of comparing to what she has experienced during past thousands of years ? The city has this unbeaten calmness and dignified modesty associated with it, and it influences its people.   Growing up in Xi'an I never understood that, after visiting so many different cities around the world and living in some of the largest cities in the U.S.,  now I fully understand where you can trace back that modesty and calmness ...

Hopefully one day not so far into the distant future, I will grab that backpack and hope on a bike, ride along those familiar routes along the Loess Plateau dotted with hundreds of Emperor's tombs. I never appreciated it when I was young, but I bet it will feel much different this time when I visit these once-great men in the boundless Chinese history...

The wild thing is that this terra cotta warriors are a small part of the things the yellow Emperor left before he died. From the same books where these warriors were described, there are also passages about the Emperor's mausoleum or his resting tomb where there could be booby traps and a river of mercury and a constellation of stars on the roof that's supposed to represent the night sky

I think he meant to say: 7th century at first (not first century), and massively in the 14th century. In the 1st – 3rd centuries AD the Silk Road connected the four most powerful ancient empires – European Roman Empire, the Parthian Empire in the Near and Middle East, the Kushan Empire in the south of Central Asia, Afghanistan and Chinese Hang Empire in the Far East.
