The Singaporean tourist, @coldestasian, has gone viral on TikTok after sharing a video of himself in tears whilst visiting South Africa.
In his video captioned “Asian guy cries because South Africa is a beautiful country”, the traveller is seated at a park in Johannesburg and moved to tears by the sheer natural beauty before his eyes.

From a waterfall and lush green trees to the mountain in the background of the park, the visitor couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Yoh, sorry guys. South Africa is such a beautiful country. Yoh, look at this beautiful sight. What a beauty! What a majestic sight!” said the traveller.
“My international friends, please tell me if you’d love to visit South Africa after seeing such a beautiful sight,” he added.
While some netizens reactions where indifferent, others understood how he felt and this is what they had to say:
