Why do China people always scribble the words "Come here" for an answer?

China people always take a photo no matter what kind of tourist spots they visit. Not only do you take photos to show that you have been there, but you will also personally write the words "so-and-so to visit here" on the scenic spots. "To visit here" is estimated to be the word with the highest frequency in tourist attractions.

In fact, since ancient times, everyone has been touched by the scene. When they arrive at a place, they always want to leave some traces. This is an instinct, and this is a residual habit of the people from the ancient celebrities who like to compose poems. We see many poems now, which are actually another version of "a visit here" written by the ancients. Only through the sieve of years, the essence and culture remain, and the rough and uneducated are filtered out. If you are careful, you can see the "So-and-so's visit here" left by tourists on the square monument protected by a glass cover at the entrance of the forest of steles in Xi 'an 14 years ago. It can be seen that the bad habit of graffiti by Chinese people has a long history.

If we talk about the ancestor who "visited here", I'm afraid it's the famous "Monkey King" the Monkey King. When the monkey somersaulted to the edge of Buddha's five fingers, it was hard to hide his pride. In order to leave a certificate, he wrote the eight characters "Great Sage of Qi Tian came here" on Buddha's finger, which was magnificent. Since then, "a visit here" has been printed into the minds of China people with the spread of The Journey to the West's famous book. Art comes from life. Wu Cheng'en can write this passage to show that it does happen in life. At that time, Qin Shihuang, no matter where he toured, had to "take advantage of the stone", which may be the pioneer who preferred to be named in reality. Later, emperors of all dynasties also had inscriptions and names when they visited and toured, which was a kind of show-off and fashion of "All over the world, is it the land of kings?" In the twelfth year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao marched north to Wu Huan, wiped out the remnants of Yuan Shao, moved troops to victory, and boarded Jieshi Mountain on the way. Cao Cao climbed high into the distance and saw the vast sea in the distance, which was magnificent, so he wrote "Watching the Sea" which was told through the ages, and Cao Cao's "Visiting here" was told through the ages. And there is another huge group with this inscription, namely, the literati in ancient China. Just imagine, when the literati are traveling around the mountains, they will be poetic for a while, or they will recite poems or write inscriptions. When they encounter a proud work, they will inevitably leave a name. Therefore, China's famous mountains and rivers are accompanied by more words. The beauty of nature and the beauty of humanity complement each other. After years of accumulation, it has become a seamless cultural heritage and a scenic spot that we are happy to see now.

In fact, China people's idea of "keeping a name" has existed since ancient times. The profound source of this thought is unknown, but it may be a psychological compensation for the early pursuit of immortality. As the saying goes, "the geese stay behind, and people stay behind." When you take a trip in the world, you always leave something behind. Since you can't leave a message, you can always leave a name. Therefore, China people pay more attention to reputation and pursue immortality. Therefore, China people, regardless of their status or wealth, want to leave a good name behind them.

If you pay attention, you will find that foreigners always take a thick travel introduction book with them when they go out. In contrast, most people in China like to take a quick trip. Basically, they get on the bus to sleep, get off the bus to take photos, pee at a fixed place and report with the flag raised. People in China are used to the fast-food sightseeing of "visiting here". They rarely open their hearts, accept and feel the lakes and mountains.

In today's serious environmental problems, we must have good tourism literacy. Engraving and leaving names in various cultural heritages can only increase the workload of cultural relics protection, but it will not be of any benefit to it. As a matter of fact, we can see that the cultural connotation of the masterpieces written by the royal family or the poems and songs with flying literary talents is definitely not comparable to that of "a visit here". We don't know whether ordinary people in ancient times left a hobby of "visiting here" when they visited, but we know that after thousands of years, only those things with rich cultural connotations were left behind. As for those various "visiting here", they all went with the passage of time and material weathering, no matter how much those who left their names wanted to stay in the world, they failed to leave a trace.

Insist on the integrity of cultural relics, and don't continue the bad habits. It's just a little effort. Please be merciful and don't scribble the words "Come here" everywhere. Although it is impossible to eradicate this bad habit overnight, with the development of economy and the improvement of national education level, it is believed that uncivilized tourism will become less and less.
