Walking Downtown Taishan, China | My Family’s Hometown with @discovertaishan1003
Join us for a vibrant stroll through Downtown Taicheng, Taishan, Guangdong—the city of my family’s roots! In this video, @discovertaishan1003 and I explore the bustling commercial district, venture through the Taishan Commercial City Mall, and meander down a lively pedestrian street brimming with shops, delicious food, and local culture.
This is a place where countless Taishanese families, including mine, began their journeys before emigrating abroad. Experience the rich tapestry of tradition and modernity as we uncover the stories behind this unique hometown. Filmed on June 18, 2025.

This is great to see this!
I've had two Xiaomi phones, an air purifier, and I just bought a Xiaomi TV. All good quality products. I'm curious to know how their automobiles are.😏
Fantastic video AK !
Thank you for sharing, Taishan. I remembered my grandma always saying (before she passed away many years ago) it was very poor back then in Taishan; she needed to send money back to her relatives. They always asked for help. Look at Taishan now; it's better than many places.
Very cool! I've been watching your videos off and on since Puerto Rico. I didn't realize you had connections to Taishan. I was filming over there recently, and I'm based in Macau and using filming the location of Macau/Zhuhai as well as other places around here. If anyone on your channel wants to see more videos of this area, please I encourage them to check out my channel as well. 🙂 Enjoy Taishan!
But too many street vendors will hamper the local business. This touristic areas need to protect the shop owners. This is my opinion. May be a little away from the main walking street, then vendors may be allow.
awesome video, my dads from kaiping city area and ive been wanting to see more of his hometown.
Very nice walking street. Loved the architecture here.
When i was little back around 2000's i used to go to school at the Commercial City walking street
Downtown Taicheng looks historical yet modern at the same time with spacious pedestrian walkways. 44:30 The young guy is so professional, quick, and efficient in making the Jianbing, and it looks delicious 1:03:30. 😋 It's cool that you and your mom wore the shirts to support Thomas's channel. 😎Thank you for sharing this walk along with your mom and Thomas, AK! 🤗
