Why are there so few locals in shopping spots for tour groups?

Many of the shopping spots during travel are shopping malls set up by outsiders near scenic spots or during travel. Let’s not talk about the quality of the items, and the prices are much higher than the outside prices. Because in addition to the cost of rent and items, a certain rebate fee must be paid to tour guides and tour bus drivers. Even shopping spots will pay a certain fee to the tour guide and driver in advance, so that the tour guide will take the guests to that shopping spot. In some cases, as long as the driver stops at a shopping point, the driver will get some parking fees regardless of whether the customer buys the items inside.

So, tourist shopping spots are generally not visited by local people.
