Emme Zhou documents her whirlwind family trip to Beijing, starting with a stressful visa-free transit entry that almost derailed everything. She begins with a lavish hotel breakfast buffet at the Grand Hyatt before an early morning hike up the Great Wall at Mutianyu, taking a cable car and a lift to avoid the steepest climb. Back in the city, she explores a mall food court where she discovers impossibly chewy noodles and a refreshing, tingly liangpi. She shares fun facts from a Forbidden City tour, including the symbolic 9,999 rooms, ancient fire-extinguisher buckets, and a man-made stone hill. After a rest day, she tries KFC's unique Chinese menu—including a red bean pie and a confusing spicy mystery item. The biggest twist comes when she realizes her 240-hour visa-free transit only allows her to stay in the Beijing district, forcing her to skip the Terracotta Warriors in Xi'an while her family goes without her. Embracing solo time, she uses Chinese apps to find a vintage luxury store (no bag purchase recorded) and a hidden cafe tucked away in a quiet alley, where she sips a pandan cream latte and samples local treats like yogurt balls, a milk skin roll, green tea cake, and ludagun (rolling donkey) mochi. She ends her vlog at a century-old Tanguin bakery, picking up custom gift boxes with adorable pastry designs. Marsel, her sister's fiancé, makes cameo appearances throughout, especially during the amusing KFC taste test where Maxel struggles with the confusing spicy item.
Emme Zhou takes us on a whirlwind Beijing adventure, blending family time with solo exploration. From a nail-biting visa-free transit entry to sunrise hikes on the Great Wall and decadent hotel breakfast buffets, she dives into local street food, hidden cafes, and iconic bakeries. The journey balances tourist must-sees like the Forbidden City with intimate moments of discovery—like finding a vintage designer store and tasting forgotten bao-bing treats. It's a lively, heartfelt look at reconnecting with China through food and memory.

She used the 240-hour visa-free transit for US citizens, but had to book a flight to a third country before returning to the US.
What was the best food Emme tried?
The chewiest noodles from a mall food court, yogurt balls, milk skin roll, and green tea cake from a hidden cafe.
What did Emme think of Chinese KFC?
The red bean pie was 10/10 and the egg tarts were great, but the spicy mystery item was confusing and not good.
Why didn't Emme visit the Terracotta Warriors?
Her visa-free transit only allowed her to stay in the Beijing district, so she stayed behind while her family went to Xi'an.
