A Few Simple Rules in Visiting China:
1. Visiting other places is just like visiting the home of your friends,
you have to respect the place, respect the lifestyle, respect the
culture and respect the people there.
2. Never complain of the differences between your place and the place
you are visiting, or criticize the lifestyle of other people. Bear in
mind, no place is the same. Complaints and criticisms don’t make you
look supreme but just a uncivilized people who don’t know how to respect
others and don’t know much about this world.
3. Respect and follow the practice and lifestyle of people of other
places. Don’t try to apply the way people in China do to other places.
If you do so, you will only be a disgusting and unwelcome visitor in
that place.
4.Admire the different and the unique traits of other places that you
are visiting.
A Cardinal Rule for all
Travelers: Respect the place you are
visiting as you are visiting the home of your friends. Unless you are
just a rude person that you are unwelcome by everyone no matter where
you go, try to follow the simple rules when you visit other place and be
a self-respected tourist, at least don't be an unwelcome visitor.
