  I am Chinese, and I'm so grateful to see a different documentary outside the textbook. It really gives me a new aspect of history at that time.

  Beautiful. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐My wife was Chinese, she passed about a year and a half ago. We also made river excursions up river to Guilin, a truly magical place. And so many other fascinating stops. I can't stop thinking of her watching this.

  How ridiculous and hypocritical to blurr centuries old historical photos. Modern society devolving.

  While agreeing with the irritation caused by Youtube's censorship requirements it was other wise a great and fascinating collection of photos. So, thank you.

  Cameras in 1905 were the size of a 12 pack of beer. Imagine carrying that around china, at a time cameras were extremely uncommon. This Frenchman was ahead of his time.

  Enjoyed the history and photography which can no longer be captured today.

  What's with the blurring, man? It's a historical document.

  Regarding the blurring of the pictures that many people commented on, it is the policy of YouTube that you cannot show certain things, such as nudity, killing, dead people and many other things.  Otherwise, the video would be taken down.  To keep the narrative intact and continuous, I believe that is why there are all these blurring.  It is unfortunate, but otherwise you won't see this documental in the original form at all.

  To me important for getting a glimpse in my old man&apos;s environment, a man born at dawn from previous century.
