China's HOLY Mountain at Tibet-Yunnan Border (forbidden to climb) I S2, EP78

Published 2024-06-14
In this episode, I am traveling to Deqin County which is the place to see the holiest mountain for Tibetan Buddhism called Kawa Garbo. Several attempts have been made to climb this peak, but no one succeeded until eventually climbing was restricted.
On my way to Dequin, I am traveling along side the Jinsha River Valley which has a very unique topography, greenish on one side, and quite arid on the other side. The altitude gets up to 5000 meters and I am riding along side a snow kept surrounding. I met some very hospitable people along the way that were very helpful and even invited me for lunch...

    Hello, Yan. I hope this message reaches you well. I have been suffering from anxiety and depression for the past couple of weeks and it is very difficult for me to feel what it's like to be alive anymore. In watching your videos, it takes my mind away from the personal issues that I have been experiencing. You give me so much hope to live. You have such a beautiful personality that I really find comforting. You are calm and careful with your words. I cannot afford to have a therapist, but your videos really help me escape my suffering even just for a bit. Every time I watch a video of yours, a part of me heals. I am truly thankful for your dedication to your channel and to your content.

    Thanks! It is such a pleasure to travel with you. I love your country and your excursions. I always feel like I'm right beside you, and can smell foods and countrysides as you travel. Be well blessings.

    That was beautiful. The drone flight over lush green rice fields, with the beautiful music, with the viola's and cellos and the endless movement of the piano. And suddenly we were in barren mountains, goats on the road. Enjoying, sitting with you on the saddle of the scooter, and only at 7:03. And together with you, I am looking forward to see the snow cladded holy mountain... Thanks, sweet friend, for being again our eyes in areas where we will never come. It feels rich to know you as my guide, even if it is only through the window of my computer screen.
  • Hi Yan I must tank you because your video makes happy. I get up at 6 am and turn on my Tv at Youtube and begin to watch this video. Wonderful fill my heart with joy. You are great! China is amazing! Chinese people are so nice and resilient! Thanks!
  • @Moksha-Raver
    Little Chinese Everywhere is my favorite YouTube channel. These are a true treasure of China. Hope you can do a video with Blondie in China someday.
  • And once again so professionally put together and showing this great country, love what you do.
  • @tjmctube
    I don't blame them for banning climbing. Everest is a mess.

Thanks for sharing, it's a tough journey traveling solo on your bike, Kudos. China is beautiful will be going to Chongqing next before heading back on my 12 days holiday. Will be back for sure.
  • @AxlThegim
    I always wondered what life in China would be like. Then, in search of videos on the internet, I found your channel. It's great to see you exploring and sharing your country. I came to realize that it is even more vast than I used to think. Although China is our neighboring country, I have never been there. Maybe someday I will visit, but before that, I guess I should learn Chinese first. :D
  • This Meili snow mountain is so beautiful, it looks like those from Europe 😊 who would have known it’s from Tibet! ❤ Thank you Yan for showing us this part of China ❤
