Why do so many people like to travel abroad?

We all prefer traveling abroad because there are two major characteristics. First, foreign culture and the ability to experience abroad will make many people like it. Second, prices abroad are much cheaper than in China. Even Europe does not have Chinese scenic spots. Tickets are expensive and the rip-off is huge. For Chinese people who don’t have many holidays, they prefer to travel abroad during the two major holidays - National Day and Spring Festival. The Chinese’s favorite overseas travel destinations are the United States and Thailand. Besides, it’s a trip to Europe. Among them, France and Italy are the first choices for tourists in Europe, followed by Germany. In the past two years, the number of Chinese tourists visiting Germany has increased by more than 20%.

Our domestic attractions are the same in every city, and there is a problem of homogeneity. Needless to say, as long as you visit two ancient towns, you can completely understand this feeling. After Lijiang and Wuzhen succeeded, they all copied their model and made each ancient town across the country look like a big market. The things and products you buy in every ancient town are exactly the same, and there is no sense of novelty at all. The same stinky tofu, the same small commodities wholesaled from Yiwu, without any creativity.

Our infrastructure is not perfect. There are many scenic spots and places like this in China, and the infrastructure is very weak. For example, the infrastructure in the western region is relatively backward, and the transportation and services are not good. However, for most areas, it is not just a matter of infrastructure such as hotels and transportation, but also services that need to be strengthened. Some netizens said that after finally seeing a giant panda, they were disappointed by the service there. Looking at this alone, it cannot be compared with traveling abroad, so it is understandable that most Chinese people choose to travel abroad.

For example, the first time I went to the small country of Japan, 800 yuan was exchanged for 10,000 yen. The second time I went there was 630 yuan for 10,000 yen. Now, it is probably 520 in Europe. When I went there, there were still 10 RMB to 1 Euro, and later 9 RMB to 1 Euro. Now, it’s less than 7 yuan. The Australian dollar has also gone from 6 yuan to less than 5 yuan now.

You Think about it, the currency of other countries has depreciated so fast. If you don't go there now, why would you go? What's more, prices there are cheaper than at home.
