There are many foreigners living in China. Why do Germans seldom travel or settle down?

In today's economic globalization, the economies of all countries in the world are closely linked. There are many multinational companies on the list of the world's top 500 companies every year. Transnational corporations have also become an important carrier of economic globalization, linking the economies of all countries and linking people of all countries. To a certain extent, we can often see foreigners on the streets of big cities. Many foreigners are right? Awakening the oriental lion? Very interested.

Coupled with the increasingly developed tertiary industry tourism, China's international reputation has gradually improved, and many foreign friends have become interested in the ancient oriental civilization, hoping to see what this mysterious and powerful country looks like. Therefore, it is really common for us to see foreigners in tourist attractions during the tourist season. However, if we carefully observe or talk to them, we will find that most foreign tourists come from neighboring countries and African countries, but there are fewer tourists from Europe and America, especially German tourists. What is the reason?

Bian Xiao: I looked up some materials, made some small surveys and got to know the situation with some German friends. To sum up, I found that there are five main reasons why Germans seldom travel or settle in China. First of all, the first trip is expensive, which is very realistic, because not every foreigner has money, and a cross-border trip costs a lot, or because the distance between the two countries is too long, a round-trip air ticket alone costs about 7,000 yuan.

Low cost performance

According to what I learned from chatting with some German friends, what is the reason why I don't like traveling to China very much? Low cost performance? The voyage from Munich, the capital of Germany, to Beijing is 7594 kilometers. It takes more than ten hours just to fly, and it will take longer if you choose other modes of transportation. Traveling is very frustrating. Some Germans think that it is better to choose EU countries or cities to play with so much money, and you can have fun with the same money.

Visa issue

The most important prerequisite for international travel is a visa. You can't enter this country without a visa. With the gradual strengthening of China's national strength and influence, more and more foreigners have poured into China, which has caused management problems. Therefore, the visa examination has become more and more strict, which led to some foreign tourists being refused visas directly, which made it more difficult to travel to China, and finally gave up the plan to travel to China.

Not used to the environment or weather type of a new place.

We have a saying in China? One side of the soil and water raises one side? Every country and region has its own living habits, customs and cultures, and there are also differences in lifestyles. This is also the reason why German tourists can adapt to our country's food culture, just like our country's special snacks: braised large intestine, chicken feet with pickled peppers, duck intestines and so on. This is absolutely unacceptable. In the food culture of foreigners, they don't eat animal viscera, but only meat. In addition, most Chinese restaurants in our country are used to using knives and forks, which is also a big challenge for Germans who use knives and forks.

cultural difference

There must be great differences in cultural concepts. The most prominent place is language. The official language of the Germans is German, which is an unpopular language in China. After all, few people can speak English, and the popularity of English is high. There are some difficulties in communication between the two sides, and there will be communication obstacles. In addition, Germany is a modern country that started with industrial civilization. It takes time to understand whether we can identify with our traditional culture.

In fact, these reasons are quite realistic and have indeed happened in life, although it is not suitable for international travel now. Not only Germans will consider these factors, but even when we travel at ordinary times. After all, you have to consider it comprehensively to have a good time. It seems that foreigners think in the same way as we do. What do you think differently about this? Welcome to leave a message in the comments section.
