Video is a powerful medium for language immersion. As your eyes go through the subtitles you&#8217;re reinforcing your reading and listening comprehension (and having fun!).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/en\/learn-chinese-online\/\">Learning Chinese<\/a> does not have to be in a formal setting, I would suggest you to watch your video while enjoying some \u5c0f\u7b3c\u5305 (steamed dumplings) and \u8c46\u6d46 (soy milk) \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>Alright, without further ado \u2014 here are my 5 favorite sites for watching Mandarin Chinese videos (with Chinese subtitles) online:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>YouTube<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>YouTube is a great tool for if you&#8217;re learning Chinese. Most videos these days provide closed captions, which means you can watch whatever you&#8217;re interested in and turn on Chinese subtitles (look for the &#8220;cc&#8221; button next to the video settings).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended viewing: \u4e2d\u56fd\u5408\u4f19\u4eba2\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is the story of an internet startup \u2014 where two programmers and an investor strive build a new company during the dot com boom. This movie has both English and Chinese subtitles for your convenience. You can watch the movie <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Ap6Gd1O7nAg\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>YouKu \u4f18\u9177<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>YouKu is a large video streaming site for Chinese TV shows and movies, including dramas, TV shows, and documentaries. I personally love this site as it has a wide range of movies available \u2014 even new ones. Unlike other similar sites, Youku has less restrictions which means you can watch many full-length movies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended viewing: \u4e00\u751f\u4e00\u4e16\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/v.youku.com\/v_show\/id_XODE1MzEyMTIw.html?spm=a2h1n.8261147.0.0\">This movie<\/a> is a romance starring famous actors Nicholas Tse and actress Gao Yuanyuan, \u4e00\u751f\u4e00\u4e16\u00a0 revolves around a couple who spent their childhood and young adulthood together in Beijing \u2014 who then reconnect later in New York City.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLn7iYKq-G3PIrFBozQb7yLzicNGfITO8N\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-176600274 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Chinese_Blog-Banner-1-1024x288.jpg\" alt=\"Learn Chinese with the LingQ podcast\" width=\"870\" height=\"245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Chinese_Blog-Banner-1-1024x288.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Chinese_Blog-Banner-1-300x84.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Chinese_Blog-Banner-1-768x216.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Chinese_Blog-Banner-1-600x169.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lingq.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Chinese_Blog-Banner-1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>IQiyi \u7231\u5947\u827a<\/h2>\n<p>IQiyi, aka the \u201cNetfilx of China\u201d, is one of China\u2019s most popular video platforms. This platform is the perfect source for Chinese learners who would like to stream TV shows and movies in Chinese \u2014 with the help of Chinese subtitles. IQiyi focuses on high quality videos and in-house production. Please note, you need a VPN to access the content.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended viewing: \u5341\u6708\u56f4\u57ce\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nBased on true events, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iqiyi.com\/v_19rrj5s194.html\">this movie<\/a> centers around a group of bodyguards sent to protect Dr. Sun Yat-Sen from assassination during his visit to Hong Kong in 1906.<\/p>\n<h2>NTDTV<\/h2>\n<p><strong>\u8001\u5916\u770b\u4e2d\u570b\u3001\u8001\u5916\u770b\u53f0\u7063<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntdtv.com.tw\/b5\/20171006\/video\/206752.html?\">\u8001\u5916\u770b\u4e2d\u570b and \u8001\u5916\u770b\u53f0\u7063<\/a> are hosted by Ben Hedge. These shows are popular because of their social and political commentary and frequently discuss topics involving Taiwan and China. The shows are also available on YouTube.<\/p>\n<h2>Tencent \u817e\u8baf<\/h2>\n<p>Similar to both YouKu and IQiyi, Tencent is another streaming video platform in China. However, like IQiyi, you will need a VPN to access Tencent\u2019s videos if you are outside of China.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended viewing: \u5317\u4eac\u9047\u4e0a\u897f\u96c5\u56fe\u4e4b\u4e0d\u4e8c\u60c5\u4e66\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nThe sequel to 2013&#8217;s &#8220;<em>Finding Mr. Right<\/em>&#8220;, <a href=\"https:\/\/v.qq.com\/x\/cover\/68r0nxqxvlhrpjg\/q0020e7zx6p.html\">this movie<\/a> is about a couple who rekindle their romance and head to new locations in the U.S. and Europe.
