What situations in scenic spots offend tourists the most?

As a major tourist attraction, the biggest contribution to the local area should be to attract tourists here. Only when a large number of tourists come, can local consumption of food, housing, transportation, travel, shopping, entertainment, etc. be generated and drive the local economy. On the contrary, if a scenic spot cannot attract tourists, the income generated from food, accommodation, transportation, tourism, shopping, and entertainment will naturally be less. Tourists will not be able to increase their consumption. No matter how many scenic spots there are, they will not be able to drive local economic development.

Managers in many places do not know the underlying purpose of building scenic spots at all, and are still entangled in scenic spot tickets and secondary consumption in the scenic spots. The number of tourists in some scenic spots is either growing slowly or gradually declining. Moreover, the more tourists travel, the higher the differentiation requirements for scenic spots, and the lower their consumption in scenic spots.

There are several things that most offend tourists about charging scenic spots

First, they are offended by the high price of tickets. It is very common that the higher the level of a scenic spot, the higher the ticket price. If you visit several 4A and 5A scenic spots in one day, the consumption of tickets is likely to exceed accommodation, meals, etc.

The second one is disgusted with the arbitrary nature of ticket prices. Some scenic area ticket offices have the highest ticket prices. Although the price of online group buying is lower, it often happens that when tourists arrive at the entrance of the scenic spot, the scenic spot staff uses the excuse that the machine is broken and is being repaired to make tourists wait for a long time. Tourists who are impatient to wait can only pay less than Purchase tickets at the highest price, higher than the group purchase price. Tickets for some scenic spots not only have ticket office prices, group purchase prices, group ticket prices, but also different levels of relationship prices. Ticket prices for many scenic spots are very high, and are actually highly flexible and arbitrary, giving tourists the impression that they are more The more you are honest, the more you will suffer.

Third, they are disgusted with secondary tickets for scenic spots, especially passes. The ticket prices for some scenic spots are already very high, but you need to purchase additional tickets when entering the main attractions in the scenic area. Some scenic area ticket offices mainly sell passes, which in turn raises the price of tickets a lot.

Fourthly, they are disgusted with the bundling of scenic spot tickets with the sales of low-quality and high-priced accommodation in the scenic spots. Nowadays, hotels, inns, B&Bs and other accommodation facilities have been built in some scenic spots. In order to attract business, many scenic spots have adopted the method of bundling sales of scenic spot tickets and accommodation. Tourists who live in the scenic area can get free tickets and can even drive their cars into the scenic area. However, the accommodation conditions in many scenic spots are really hard to praise. Scenic spot tickets are bundled with low-quality and high-priced accommodation in the scenic spots, giving tourists the feeling of being "scammed."

Fifth, they are disgusted with the poor quality and high prices of meals in scenic spots. Countless times I have seen tourists sitting at the tables of restaurants in scenic spots, looking at the scary prices on the menu in surprise, helplessly looking at the thin dishes on the plate, and swallowing hard the most unpalatable food in the country of gourmet food, which is said to be "meal". "The scene of finally paying with gritted teeth and full of resentment. Trying not to eat in restaurants in scenic spots has become common sense among many tourists.

Sixth, they are averse to forced use of paid means of transportation in scenic spots. Some scenic spots seem to have low ticket prices, but after entering the scenic spots, you find that you must take transportation within the scenic area, and the price of taking transportation is even close to the ticket price. Tourists have entered an unfamiliar scenic spot, and the news they received is that it is difficult to move without taking a bus, and they have to pay for tickets. But when tourists arrive at their destination after driving a short distance, they lose all interest in traveling.

Seventh, I am disgusted with the excessive number of shopping stores in the scenic area. I am disgusted with the push by the clerks outside the shopping stores when visiting the scenic area, and I am disgusted with the lack of price tags on the products in the shopping mall. The tourist routes in some scenic spots are densely surrounded by shopping stores, kiosks, stalls, etc. Especially in some religious scenic spots, it feels like you have entered a market, without any solemnity. Since there are too many shops in the scenic spot, competition among the shops is fierce. In order to compete for customers, shop assistants will not hesitate to force tourists to enter the store to shop. Many shopping stores in scenic spots lack clear price tags and rely entirely on sales staff quotations, making it difficult for tourists to shop with confidence.

Eighth, they are disgusted that the products in scenic spots are the same and shoddy, and it is difficult to protect their rights after sales. Many products in scenic spots are either street stall-level products that have nothing to do with the theme of the scenic spot; or they are far-fetched gemstone products that are difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake; or all the stores in the scenic spot sell the same types of scenic spot specialty products; or They are "sticker" products in the name of cultural creation; or they are porcelain painting plates, charcoal carving plates, etc. that have remained unchanged for many years. Many products of poor quality double in value once they enter a scenic spot. Roughly designed and produced statues of various great figures and saints are sold grandly in shops and street stalls in scenic spots. Even if tourists go home and find that there is something wrong with the goods they bought in the scenic spot, the scenic spot will promote merchants, the merchants will promote salespersons, and the salespersons will promote temporary workers. In the end, the tourists will be annoyed and can't get over it.

The ninth reason is that the price of drinks in scenic spots is too high. I really don’t understand why today, when logistics is so developed, the freight in scenic spots is still so high. It is understandable if the freight for drinks is high in scenic spots such as high mountains or outside the wilderness, but it is hard to understand that the freight is high for scenic spots in the center of the city. Although the price of a bottle of drink is high and ordinary people can afford it, it makes tourists very uncomfortable.

Tourists have demand for accommodation and catering in commercial scenic spots

Tourists generally have accommodation, catering and other requirements for commercial scenic spots such as characteristic towns and villages that do not charge tickets.

However, many characteristic towns and villages either have no accommodation, are too high-end, or are too low-end, or are high-priced but low-quality; the catering is the same, or all the restaurants in the town sell the same few local dishes, or Various local characteristic towns and villages all offer similar snacks, and some have no local specialties at all. Even if there is no admission fee, but the food and accommodation are not good, or there is even no place to stay, the tourists' reaction can only be that they are unwilling to come, or they cannot stay after they come, and their consumption will naturally be very low.

Tourists are disgusted with homogeneous consumption in scenic spots

After the famous theme park scenic spots launched cartoon images, various types of scenic spots in various places have launched their own cartoon images, and also developed a series of cartoon images. For tourism products, regardless of the quality of some cartoon character designs, most tourists just take photos and don’t really pay attention to these cartoon characters, let alone buy these cartoon character products that no one knows about.

After the snack streets and bar streets in certain famous characteristic towns and villages became popular, various characteristic towns and villages in various places built snack streets and bar streets one after another, completely cloning them in terms of content. Serious homogeneity. As a result, many characteristic towns and villages inevitably become deserted and depressed after being lively for a while.

After a famous scenic spot’s huge investment in real-life performances became popular, many scenic spots in the southeast and northwest invested in and launched real-life performance projects. Most of the live performances, which require huge investments, are crudely produced, and have high basic operating costs, only a few days after their successful start, it is difficult to find any audience in the stands.

A few years ago, the glass plank roads that appeared in scenic spots have also become the standard feature of scenic spots. Similar homogeneous consumption in scenic spots makes tourists feel boring.

The Central Economic Work Conference and the "Government Work Report" require reducing the relatively high ticket prices of key state-owned scenic spots, further releasing tourism consumption demand, and promoting high-quality development of the tourism industry. Recently, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Guiding Opinions on Improving the Ticket Price Formation Mechanism of State-owned Scenic Areas and Reducing Ticket Prices of Key State-owned Scenic Areas." The guidance points out that improving the ticket price formation mechanism of state-owned scenic spots and reducing the ticket prices of key state-owned scenic spots will help speed up the establishment of a state-owned scenic spot operation and management system that fully reflects social benefits, social benefits and economic benefits, and will help further release tourism consumption demand , to promote the transformation and upgrading of the tourism industry from ticket economy to industrial economy, niche tourism to mass tourism, and scenic spot tourism to all-region tourism.
