Cold outside, warm inside: China-Finland bath culture adventure #CGTN

In Finland, the sauna is a sanctuary – a place to relax, reflect, and reconnect with nature and community. In northeastern China, especially in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, the bathhouse is a lively social space where friends and families gather, enjoy tasty snacks, unwind in hot pools, and share laughter late into the night. In this video, CGTN’s vlogger Shanny begins a special air bathing adventure with Finnish vlogger Irene. They explore two traditions thousands of miles apart but connected by the universal desire for warmth, wellness, and togetherness. Let’s dive into the cultural connection between China and Finland with them!
