Photo or photo fraud? Internet celebrity attractions have deep tricks and multi-layered filters. Don’t be fooled again.

I don’t know if you have had this experience: One day, you saw a beautiful niche attraction online, and the photos looked particularly graceful. In the picture, the breeze is blowing and the light and shadow are mottled. Everything is what you imagine a perfect vacation to be like. When you look at this scenery, you feel the urge to "just leave".

Those Internet celebrity attractions that have been photoshopped by many bloggers, with heavy filters, have deceived batches of tourists who want to relax and have a rest. Today, Xiao Ai is not going to do anything else. I’m going to tell you about some of the deceptive “Internet celebrity attractions” in recent years to help you avoid lightning.

Sanya · Little Blue House

Speaking of this little blue house, it was really famous back then. It initially attracted countless fans with just one photo. When many girls saw the photo of the blue house, they became so girly that they rushed to Sanya overnight, hoping to see this beautiful little house for the first time. Even the female idol Li Yitong was impressed by its beauty.

To be honest, when Xiao Ai saw this photo, she also felt that this place was full of art. The fresh retro blue color and a beautiful woman with long hair were really unique.

However, as great as the hope is, there is also great disappointment! When I went to the site and took a look, it turned out that the so-called retro blue house was just a shabby house built on adobe, and it didn't even have a door! It's so shabby that you can't even take a second look when walking on the street! What literature and art? What blockbuster? What retro? What style? It has nothing to do with this at all!

At this time, Xiao Ai really sighed: It turns out that as long as the filter catches up, a broken house can be turned into a palace!

Yunnan·Chengjiang Pink Beach

Last summer, Xiao Ai believes that many people have seen the pink beach that hit the circle of friends.

The dreamy girly pink, the gentle waves, and even the sea water have an extra gentleness. The most important thing is that many social platforms have promoted the title of "the only pink beach in the country", which has made many people yearn for it.

Since this pink beach became popular, the surrounding tourism industry has become very popular, and almost every route includes this must-go check-in point. Let’s not talk about whether this pink beach is as good as advertised. Just the people who left after hearing the news made the place extremely crowded, even parking was difficult, and the experience was extremely poor. In the words of netizens, it was so difficult that I didn’t even recognize my own mother!

However, such hard work did not bring the same reward. When you get there, you will find that the so-called 100-meter pink beach is actually only a dozen meters. The so-called pink beach is also a huge lump of pig liver-colored soil. It has nothing to do with the beach. If you dare to walk on it barefoot, you will Aijing, you are a man!

The most important thing is that the surrounding supporting facilities here are also very imperfect. You need to bring your own food and drink, and there are no toilets. It’s really “tolerable and intolerable”!

Beijing·Guomao Cafe

This place is so popular for no reason, Xiao Ai can only say, I don’t understand its popularity!

Indeed, the photo does look very atmospheric, and there is indeed some flavor of old Shanghai in it. In addition, the blogger’s seemingly sincere recommendation also adds a lot of points to this photo. However, it is very ordinary, even if it is real, it is also very ordinary!

What’s more, it’s not true. Everyone was frightened after seeing the physical store! Many people even drove around the neighborhood several times on the navigation system but still couldn't find this store because the gap between the photos and the real thing was so big. At this time, Xiao Ai truly understood what "pictures are for reference only" meant.

Hangzhou·Sinking Coffee Shop at the Subway Entrance

Coincidentally, in Hangzhou, there is also a cafe that has become popular on major social platforms. It is the legendary Sinking at the Subway Entrance coffee shop. To be honest, the name sounds like a literary and artistic flavor. It sounds like a sinking style, a coffee shop, or a subway station. Isn’t it petty bourgeoisie?

Looking at this picture again, this feeling is even stronger. The clean and bright doors and windows, and the wooden door pillars look high-end and fresh when paired together. Just imagine, coming here to drink a cup of warm coffee after get off work in the evening, looking up from time to time at the crowds of people passing by outside the window, and feeling that the fatigue of the whole day has disappeared. It’s beautiful just thinking about it!

But what is the reality? When I saw the physical store, not to mention that the fatigue was gone, my heart was even more tired. The subway station is surrounded by a desolate land under construction, with no scenery at all, and the so-called cafe is extremely ordinary. How can I put it, I can't say it is exactly the same, I can only say it has nothing to do with it! Order a takeaway coffee at home, curl up in bed, catch up on TV dramas and watch the Winter Olympics. Isn't it beautiful?

Wuhan·Beautiful Campground

As a senior camp enthusiast, Xiao Ai can’t help but take a second look every time she sees a good camp recommendation in China. However, tigers also take a nap, and even a delicate person like Xiao Ai with "fiery eyes" can sometimes be blinded by "photo deception".

The campground in the photo, with its green grass and vast expanse of blue waves, is very much like the fairy tale world written by Mr. Hayao Miyazaki. Just looking at it makes people feel swaying. After looking at it for a long time, there is still a feeling of longing. The feeling of lying on it and basking in the sun.

But in reality? This is just an ordinary piece of grass, and the surrounding environment is quite speechless. It can't be said to be dirty, but it's not much better. To be honest, this piece of grass may not be as beautiful as the one at the entrance of your community! It can only be described as ordinary to a bit desolate. If there is a little more wind and you have a picnic here and open your mouth to sand, the experience will be unparalleled! Whoever comes will regret it!

Qingdao · Stairway to the Kingdom of Heaven

This is not the stairway to the Kingdom of Heaven, this is the stairway to make people mad and send them to the west!

Look at this picture, does it feel like a fairy tale? Does it look like the last scene in the movie "The Truman Show"? Just because of the artistic conception, it is understandable that you drive thousands of miles to look for Xiao Ai.

But it is just as irritating as it is irritating. The real thing and the picture are completely different things! If you don’t believe me, take a look at this real picture, and Xiao Ai will laugh out loud. The white in front of her is not white, and the stairs in front of her are not stairs. After walking for more than 5 minutes, Xiao Ai feels like her legs are useless.

What, don’t the stairs at home smell good? Haven't climbed enough stairs at home? Is it possible to walk out of this half-stairs? There’s no need to come here just for it!

Hunan·Sky Realm

Hunan’s famous Sky Realm can be said to have been in the limelight for a while, with promotion words such as "spending huge sums of money to build" and "domestic first" on its official account. It touched everyone’s heart!

Looking at this beautiful picture, every minute it makes you feel like you have to go there once in a lifetime, it’s so grand! This atmosphere is really amazing! It’s completely like “Standing on the Sky Mirror is like hanging in the blue sky, walking on it is like walking on the clouds”!

But many tourists discovered when they arrived at the scene that the so-called "Mirror of the Sky" was just a platform made of mirrors! Moreover, the scene of the scenic spot is very chaotic. Although the sign next to it clearly says: "Limited to 10 people at a time, please queue up consciously", but in fact there is no one to direct and manage the scene. All tourists just put on their shoes and enter the "sky" "The mud on the feet made the originally bright mirror completely lose its reflective effect. As a result, the "fairy photos" on the promotional renderings disappeared, and many people lamented: Is this the legendary difference between the seller's show and the buyer's show?

In this regard, the staff of the scenic spot explained that the promotional photos were indeed taken in real scenes, and there were no stolen images or false propaganda. The reason for the sensory deviation may be because the renderings were taken by professional photographers. Oh, hehe!

Fortunately, this attraction has been demolished due to public outrage, which can be regarded as an explanation for everyone. Xiao Ai just feels sorry for the friends who were deceived before, how much psychological damage they have suffered!

Across the country·Little "Kamakura"

Every year during the holidays, everyone always likes to go to Japan. Due to the output of various animations and games, many attractions in Japan have natural filters for Chinese tourists, such as Kamakura!

In the animation "Slam Dunk", there is a scene in front of Ryonan High School, when the train passes by the coast, and Sakuragi Hanamichi meets Haruko. This scene takes place in Kamakura.

However, due to the impact of the epidemic in recent years, no one dares to go abroad.

Here, Xiao Ai has a good news to tell everyone, that is: there is no need to go to Kamakura, because there are already more than 100 small Kamakuras in our country!

In Jiangsu, we have small Kamakura:

In Fujian, we have small Kamakura:

Even in Henan and Hubei, we also have small Kamakura :

It seems that if there is a road, it can be called Kamakura! Xiao Ai is not sure how much ornamental value these places have, but if you really go there, you will definitely be disappointed!
