Don’t vandalize ancient monuments.
Don’t blow your nose on the hotel floor.
Put used toilet paper in the toilet and flush, not in the waste basket.

I’ve seen this behavior so many times in all the countries I’ve traveled and lived in Asia. Us bystanders always just glance around and grimace awkwardly at how unbelievable some tourists behavior can be. The internationalized Chinese are so normal compared to the tourists. No one I know can explain it. Perhaps I’ll ask some of my Chinese co-workers for the heck of it.

The Ugly American Chinaman!

How interesting thiis is, after hearing for years that the “Ugly American” is the worst tourist - we’re not “international” and “sophisticated” like travelers from every other country around the world. Guess we don’t measure up to the likes of Ding Jinhao...

Megan’s Etiquette Recommendations for Chinese tourists in America:

1. Don’t spit on the sidewalk.
2. Don’t spit on the sidewalk where I am walking.
3. Don’t spit on the sidewalk where my husband is walking.

4. If you don’t care to follow #4 then please pick up your teeth from the sidewalk after he’s done with you.

I was just in China and the personal space thing is just so true..the just do not have that concept..just diffrent culture. But there was another thing I was surprised to hear the Chinese saying what sounded like the Nword over and over ..three or four times in a row in there conversation. in Mandarin Chinese the worded for "you" or "that" is pronounced exactly like the famous N-word..they use it all the time..
