Now that you've been reading about all the horrible things about China, give yourself a break, watch and listen to this video and discover why I love China as much as I do. As I've said more than once, every country has its warts, but every country also has its beauty.
I think you are confusing American dislike of the CCCP with the Chinese people.
You can be against the CCCP and still pro Chinese.
I will admit China is one of the countries I would love to visit; but it is getting less and less likely I will ever travel further than Latrobe or Pittsburgh to watch the Steelers. Much the less outside the country.
So thank you for posting the video (and all of the pictures you have taken in China in other articles). It really helps those of us that can't travel get a sense some of the beauty and culture of the country.
Thank you Ronin2. I want you to know that I really appreciate your comment. I waited until the age of 69 to go on the adventure of my life.
I'm really sorry that so few NT members have any desire to watch and listen to something beautiful. I pity those who allow bigotry govern their tastes and/or single-mindedness cloud their capacity to learn something new, at least something other than politics. But then, as I've said to others, "chacun a son gout."
Very beautiful to both the eye and the ear.

I REPEAT, from my FIRST COMMENT ABOVE:
"Political comments are off topic and will be deleted."
Just in case anyone was wondering what happened here.
China certainly does have some beautiful scenery, thanks to Buzz we get see just a glimpse of it. The video has magnificent music.
I've been here for more than 16 years and I've just experienced a glimpse of it as well, but I tried to see as much as I could, and over the years posted hundreds of photoessays on NT, especially on the Creative Arts and Discovery Groups in order to share that beauty.
Second that
