What causes the difference of tourism behavior?

Tourism motivation leads to differences in tourism behavior. Westerners advocate foreign exploration, like adventure travel, extroverted, and like to express themselves in manners and lifestyles, so they like to decide their own itinerary and route, and hate other people's operations and arrangements. They often regard the difficulties in travel as part of their travel, and most of them are self-help tours, and the proportion of group package tours is small.

China people advocate moderate travel, but oppose excessive publicity and adventure. They have a persistent sense of identity with their native land and are not easy to integrate into a foreign society. They should conform to the "collective" principle in dress, manners, lifestyle and even thinking, and the way of traveling is mainly group package. The difference in tourism between westerners and China people is also reflected in their attitudes towards landmark scenic spots. To go to new york without the Statue of Liberty, to go to Egypt without the pyramids, and to go to Holland without seeing the windmill, it is equivalent to not having been to those places for China people, but westerners don't value them.

Differences between China and the West

Most foreigners go out with a thick travel introduction book. In contrast, most people in China like to skim the water when traveling, and "get on the bus to sleep, get off the bus to take pictures, pee at a fixed point, and report with the flag raised". When it comes to taking photos in the process of traveling, it can also best reflect the differences between Chinese and western tourists.

China tourists like to take photos of themselves with the scenery to show that they have been to a certain place, which is somewhat ostentatious. If they don't take photos of themselves, they will feel a waste. Therefore, in the photo albums of most tourists' homes, there are photos of such a trip here (some people say that this is a reflection of the idea of harmony between man and nature). Western tourists, on the other hand, take pictures of everything in the process of traveling, and they have everything in the photos, except themselves.
