ps, i love how old people in china get out and do stuff not just sit on their ass and watch tv like old people in america ha ha....sigh

[Hopezhang]

@gaozhi2007 : thank you for your comment. I actually barely check my Youtube account, please forgive my late reply. yeah, i do love to see those old people try to make their life fulfilled, that's impressive. :)

[Hopezhang]

@gaozhi2007 haha, me 2! it's good to see old people so energetic !!!

[gaozhi2007]

I love Hunan, though Changsha is too big for me. Zhuzhou is the bomb, Xiangtan is my home. PLEASE do more videos about China even if you are in America. I would love to actually learn about Hunan in English for a change.

(When they were at the bus stop).

[DOCTORNIE]

I love changsha too.

[baobao42]

Looking forward to travelling to Changsha in a few years. Will show my daughter this video - she was born in Changsha :0)9

[JordanzTube]

Makes me want to go back. I have not been to Chang Sha in over a year. I think I have been to every place in your videos. That dim sum restaurant is one of my favorite places to go and the Stinky Tofu is great there.

[1k1lu]

it makes me miss changsha badly...

[BigEyesSmallMouth]

I lived in Changsha from August '99 to July 2000 and taught English and Business there at a university which has since been absorbed into Hunan University. I miss Changsha's spicy food, and I miss Rong Wan Zhen. I used to shop at Ping He Tan and visit friends at Changsha Railway University. Changsha probably has the best food in all of China. It's also one of the hottest and most humid places.

[ScepticCucumber]

I might be going to Changsha next year for 4 weeks. Is it nice? Can anybody tell me about changsha besides from this video? is it a nice place with cool chinese buildings and stuff like that?

[jiandan007]

my hometown.

I miss there so much.

[jianghzh]

yeah! my dear hometown.

[wud5tok]

Nice. Spent 6 months in changsha in 2005 and loved it. The only thing i couldn't get used to was the 'stinky tofu'.

hope i come back someday. thnx for the video

best wishes from slovenija

[hongjuesir]

hehe! very good!

if you will come changsha,contact me. i will guide for you.

[shieldironhorse]

hen hao. Changsha is a lovely place. I can not wait to move there. Thank you for showing everyone about Changsha.

[k29328]

I miss there

[ravine33]

Also a hometown for me, thanks for the video.

[zikegcwk]

It is my hometown as well. Thanks for uploading!

[JordanzTube]

Great video. I just got back from a month in ChangSha and it is great. If that dim sum you showed was from the resturaunt next to that Hunan Opera theater then that is one of the best dim sum places in the city. I especially like the stinky tofu however it takes a few tries to get used to. Hao Chaw!

[k29328]

stinky tofu ...

Hopefullly we could translate otherwise...

[xuchengming344]

I luv my hometown so much~~~
