After visiting Costa Rica and French Polynesia, the time was right to quit our full-time jobs, so we left everything to travel and have loved every minute of it. Our goal is to make it to all seven continents and visit as many countries as possible. Follow along and be a part of the journey!

Welcome to China guys! First trip always feels a bit messy and confusing, especially with the mobile payment and language barrier, but once you get a grip of it, you will find travelling within china super convenient. Enjoy the trip!

Yes, fastest in commercial services.
The fastest new train past test runs at 600+kmh

[lizz]

the meglev train used to have a top speed of 480 km, then it got reduced to 300km. nowadays, all high speed trains are faster than that, some can reach over 350km/hr.

[lilth]

Interesting despite the US travel warnings you made it into mainland China. Should be really interesting

[sonjahancock]

What a great experience! I would love the train ride ❤

[DVaccarelli]

Technically, you've been to China before, as Hong Kong is a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China. Hong Kong maintains separate governing and economic systems from that of mainland China under the principle of one country, two systems.

The operating speed of the maglev train was 430 km/h before, but now it has been changed to 430 km/h only in some periods and 300 km/h most of the time. Therefore, the high-speed rail Fuxing is actually faster than the maglev train, at 350 km/h.

[audnu-vanced]

It's the only commercially operating maglev rail line in the world.

[diffractionlee]

This maglev used to do a top speed of 520kmph until 2006 when there was an AC overheating incident. After that the top speed was limited to 420kmph.

[benjamincheung]

If you travel between 3 o'clock and 3:30PM, the speed will go up to 430km per hour

Love you guys happy attitude, always so full of fun and life 🎉

Maglev Trains use magnetic levitation to move without touching the ground. This is done by magnets which both lift the train up from the ground and propel the train forward. This is why they are more efficient at high speed since there are virtually no fictional resistance once the train is lifted off the ground.

These security checks don't seemed to be too bad. It is highly exaggerated by the media. I am pretty sure the scrutiny is much worse for Chinese nationals to enter US.

the airlines is held responsible to check the validity of passenger's travel document and latest entry visa requirement. if passenger is denied entry at destination country. it is the airlines' responsibility to fly passenger back to place of origin.

It's nice to see Americans visiting China, especially in the current antagonistic atmosphere.
Have a nice trip.

The CHINA trains are the best! great way to get around. Thank you for the video sharing

[kayleebeare]

That train is so freaking cool! Hope yall had a great time in China. Thanks for sharing with us as always!

[zhichengzhao]

Maglev train at 400km/h only runs at specific schedule, not all the times

[jeanneng]

I think they have adjusted the speed, it used to run at 431KM/Hr, now it only runs at 431KM for certain time.
To give you a comparison, it you were to travel the same distance driving, it will be over an hour.
