This video clip of some 3 minutes and 50 seconds develops the visit of a buddhist temple in Taïwan (the Shueisian temple in the district of Dingcaiyuan).

With respect to the first example, this clip is more elaborated: it is provided with a small generic heading, explanatory subtitles (in Chinese) as well as with a background music.

It privileges the "sociological aspect" of a tourist visit, this means the filming of the people forming the group of tourists (contrarily to the first example privileging the filming of the "architectural" dimension of a touristic place).

A very interesting aspect in this clip is the camera mouvement (especially the "screening" of objects populating the visual field) which seems to be strongly related to the "spontaneous" behaviour of the human body in its surrounding natural/social environment and the attentional orientation of the body with respect to (culturally) salient spots. A closer description of the camera mouvements in this video clip suggests the existence of a kind of "spontaneous natural film writing procedure" which is active in most, if not all amateur video productions.
