Are there any established "taboos" when traveling?

During the trip, the customs and culture of each place are different, so you must know it carefully before going out to avoid taboo.

First of all, don't talk about baby's eyes (Iran)

People in China generally like to say things like "Look at these big watery eyes" when praising their babies. However, you must never talk about baby's eyes in Iran, because Iranians are most sensitive to baby's eyes. If tourists are not careful, parents will hire someone to dig out the baby's "evil eyes".

Second, women must wear earrings in the street (Spain)

If you are traveling to Spain, female compatriots need to wear earrings when they go to the streets. If they don't wear earrings, they will be laughed at like normal people without clothes.

Third, never break glassware (Hungary)

When traveling to Hungary, whether staying in a hotel or eating, don't break or crack the glassware. If someone accidentally breaks the glassware, it will be regarded as a sign of bad luck, and then you will become an unwelcome person.

Fourth, never touch scalpers (India, Nepal, Myanmar)

In India, Nepal, Myanmar and other countries, yellow cattle are the "sacred cows" of the gods. No flogging, no injury, no slavery, no slaughter to eat meat. When the "god cow" approaches, he will send the best food and hold a ceremony to teach the cow on holidays. When you meet a sacred cow in expressway or downtown, pedestrians or vehicles should avoid it. The Nepalese government has also designated yellow cattle as "national animals". Anyone who hurts or whips it will be fined and sentenced.

Five, the Japanese avoid "eight chopsticks"

When Japanese eat chopsticks, there are eight taboos:

1, lick chopsticks. 2, obsessed with chopsticks, holding chopsticks in his hand, not sure what to eat, looking around the table. 3, move chopsticks, move a dish and then move another dish, eat food without eating. 4. Twist chopsticks, twist chopsticks and lick rice with your tongue. 5, insert chopsticks, insert chopsticks on rice. 6, chopsticks, open the dish from the middle to eat. 7. Cross chopsticks and put them on bowls and plates. 8. Pick chopsticks and use chopsticks as toothpicks to pick your teeth.

6. I hate asking personal questions (UK)

If you travel to England, please remember never to ask others "Where have you been" or "Have you eaten?" Just like you are at home. They hate being asked about their private lives. At the same time, the British are more afraid of others talking about men's wages and women's ages. You shouldn't even ask how much his furniture is worth. These are the secrets of his personal life, and no one is allowed to ask.

Seven. Unclean left hand (India)

When traveling to India or the Middle East, you can only eat and take things with your right hand and never use your left hand. Because people in these countries usually use their left hand to take a bath and go to the toilet, and their left hand is not clean. Therefore, it is the biggest impolite to hold food with your left hand.

Eight, westerners hate "13"

Most westerners hate the number "13" and will try to avoid it in any situation. Westerners think that 13 is an unfortunate and dangerous number. It originated from the last supper. Jesus had dinner with his disciples. 13 the disciple Judas betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver, so that Jesus was crucified. This story is widely circulated and has far-reaching influence. Westerners hate Judah, so they put "65438+". Therefore, you should understand this taboo when traveling to the West.
