Why do China people like to "visit here"?

A "blog" has caused a thousand waves, and uncivilized tourism has become a hot spot on the Internet. At the main tourist attractions in China, you can find the inscription "A visit here". How can you find it in architecture, sculpture, plants and cultural relics? Why are China people, even minors, keen on "visiting here"? One is related to traditional culture. "Get off the horse at each post and follow the wall around the column to find your poem." The ancients liked to write poems with inscriptions, which were not only collected into poems, but also displayed in the art form of calligraphy, or on scrolls, plaques, stone tablets, landscapes or mountains and rivers. In the famous mountains and rivers of China, we can see the inscriptions of famous people from all walks of life, and show their aspirations, elegant demeanor and calligraphy to the world. These poems are properly carved in the beautiful mountains and rivers, and integrated with nature, adding humanistic and historical details to the natural landscape. The works of these ancient celebrities with historical and cultural values will of course be passed down to future generations. Therefore, modern people imitate the ancients, leaving their own "Mo Bao". Even the Monkey King wrote on the Tathagata's finger, "The Great Sage of Qitian is here to visit", which shows that this traditional culture has a profound influence on China people. Influenced by "leaving a name", many people in China want to leave some "souvenirs" for future generations, so that others and future generations can remember him, so "visiting here" became popular. Who knows, ancient celebrities can be remembered by future generations and history, not because of their inscriptions on famous mountains and rivers! The second one is related to behavioral psychology. From the perspective of modern science, the prevalence of "a visit here" can also be explained by "broken window theory" and "herd mentality". If one window is broken and not repaired in time, other windows will soon be broken; There is a "visit here", and soon there will be hundreds of "visits here". "This is not illegal, this is not immoral" and "others are writing, I will write one", which is human psychology. There is also a kind of psychology that belongs to "abnormal" and "ignorant" psychology, such as doodling on the cultural relics in the Forbidden City and Egypt, which is a minority of "the other". Some commercial tourist attractions take advantage of people's psychology in order to gain popularity and convenience, such as souvenirs with "engraved names"; Specially set up a "placement point" for heart locks and knots engraved with names; Creating some artificial "gods, buddhas and beasts" and letting tourists "touch" all encourage tourists' bad behavior from the side. The third is related to social education. Some netizens said that after searching, the people who carved words on Egyptian reliefs were probably students. Some people analyze this incident from a deeper level as a lack of education; Some netizens analyzed that Ding Jinhao's children can go abroad, indicating that family conditions should be good, but family education is not so good! Our current education, whether at home or at school, focuses on the enrollment rate or the examination. The author believes that quality education should have three levels. The first level is "moral education", that is, the shaping and solidification of moral concepts and values; The second level is "habit", that is, helping children develop good daily behavior habits from an early age; The third level is "ability", that is, learning knowledge and skills. Chinese-style bad habits such as "Chinese-style tourism" and "Chinese-style crossing the street" must be highly valued, otherwise "China characteristics" will be shamed. Education is the fundamental way to change these uncivilized phenomena. (Wu Feng)
