Hello Dears, I just visit china and it is really good place to visit but the strange thing which happen to me that i see all faces like they are same and i was unable to remember any chinese face although i was able to recognize the faces of other foreigner but too tough with china resident.Do you ever feel this for any other country people that you find the same faces and unable to remember them?

I don't travel to foreign countries.But I can answer to this with the knowledge of seeing cinemas.Well,we are not used to some types of faces at all and that makes the difference.Like you can't distinguish their faces they may complain the same with your country people.But one can start differentiating after a few meetings,I hope.

yeah you can differentiate if you start looking them daily but if you see once in year then it will be difficult and i have also seen many chinese films and really i can tell which one is Jackie Chen and which one is jet lee ;) thansk for your comments

Me too. I have heard that there are seven similar persons for each person In Hindu Epics. But, When i saw Chinese, Nepalese, Japanese, Phillipines, Hong-kong etc people, they are very similar to look. Thats what the god's destiny.

yeah and i have seen many European people say that asians are all the same so its just our eyes or mind unable to remember all faces and cannot save the difference between them but as we keep living with them,then mind start recognizing the faces :)

Hi, zahidz, it's nice that you had a good trip in China. As I'm a Chinese, I think many Chinese look quite different! But I can understand you well. I watch foreign movies and sports games sometimes, but I cannot distinguish the African people. Once my feeling is same as yours now. As I watch more, it is better now. Anyway, nice to meet you!
