"Ding Jinhao" has become a hot word on the Internet these days. Ding Jinhao, a junior high school student in Nanjing, wrote "A Travel Here" on the relief of Luxor Temple in Egypt, which became a negative teaching material for tourism bad habits. Netizens even took extreme measures such as human flesh search and strongly condemned it. For a long time, "a visit to this place" has been a "signboard" for a few tourists in tourist destinations, and it is difficult to eliminate it. With the increasing voice of society for tourism civilization, the condemnation of this behavior is becoming stronger and stronger. But in fact, moral condemnation does not constitute a more effective role. People in the industry have appealed that it is time to reflect on the question of "how to be a qualified tourist". But in fact, the newly promulgated Tourism Law has made corresponding requirements for tourists' behavior norms, but how to improve the operability of the law and how to curb this phenomenon by legal means will be the next challenge.
Come here for a visit has attracted unprecedented attention.
Recently, the incident that students of Nanjing No.1 Middle School carved "Ding Jinhao's trip" on the relief of Luxor Temple in Egypt was exposed, which triggered a heated discussion among netizens. Many netizens shouted and carved "Chinese bad habits" everywhere, destroying the Millennium cultural relics of ancient Egyptian civilization and humiliating the people. Subsequently, some netizens insisted on continuing to hunt down Ding Jinhao's personal information and publicly released the search information. Graffiti and graffiti on public goods and even scenic cultural relics are not uncommon in China. Since the incident was exposed, the graffiti of "Senior reporter from Hong Wenhui Daily visited here" on Dunhuang murals and the inscription of "Liang Qiqi visited here" on a jar in the Palace Museum were exposed online.
"This kind of behavior seems to be commonplace in China, but now it is humiliated and thrown out of the country." Li Mingli (a pseudonym), a tour guide, said that during her ten years of tour guide experience, she also saw tourists doodling on stones or other objects in scenic spots, but she didn't always remind them in time. She explained that there are many group members, and it is really difficult for a tour guide to take care of them alone, so she will explain to the tourists in advance and issue a travel brochure, which lists the local customs and taboos. "The manual generally mentions what to do and what not to do, but common sense like not destroying public property should be known without reminding tourists."
However, this incident did not escape the strong public concern and condemnation as in the past. According to the analysis of insiders, on the one hand, because similar things happened overseas, it also happened in Egypt, an ancient civilization, and Egypt is a high-consumption tourist destination. The superposition of many factors made the whole incident have a sensational effect. At the same time, some foreign media commented on the unprecedented concern caused by this incident. Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao published an article saying that it is necessary to pay due attention to uncivilized behavior, but it is too much to "criticize" the mistakes made by an underage child by human flesh search and malicious intrusion into the school website.
China tourists' image of "empty bags" has been criticized.
Money doesn't mean high quality, which is a big feeling of Li Mingli tour group for many years. In her view, tourists with bulging pockets may also have nothing in their chests and low quality. In recent years, the contradiction between many tourists and tour guides is not only the unilateral fault of tour guides, but also the behavior of tourists themselves should be reflected.
According to a survey conducted by Nanfang Daily, in recent years, the image of China tourists abroad is often dubbed as "money owners". However, rich money owners are not as likable as expected. Datura Institute, 438+02 March, 1965.
According to a survey released by Research, American tourists and China tourists are the worst tourists in the world. From June 5438 to October 2008 10, the annual survey of Expedia, the world's largest online travel company, showed that China tourists continued to rank second among the worst tourists. In 2007, Expedia surveyed 65,438+05,000 European hoteliers, showing that Indians and China were considered the worst tourists.
"It's time to seriously reflect on' how to be a qualified tourist'." Lao Yibo, deputy director of the Tourism Industry Research Center of Guangdong Policy Research Institute, said that although tourism has gradually become a product that more people can afford, the quality of tourists themselves should gradually step into a qualitative leap. As a tourist, only by insisting on "respect" can we maintain a sober and rational attitude towards the beautiful scenery in front of us, and we will not take it for ourselves or impose our own improper behavior on it. Learning to respect others is also a progress of civilization.
The Tourism Law does not specify the punishment rules for tourists who violate the rules.
What are the requirements of the Tourism Law for the quality of tourists? The reporter found that Article 13 of Chapter II of the Tourism Law stipulates that tourists should abide by social public order and social morality, respect local customs, cultural traditions and religious beliefs, cherish tourism resources, protect the ecological environment, and abide by the code of conduct for tourism civilization. Although some people in the industry think that this clarifies the code of conduct for tourists, in fact, there is no mention of how to punish tourists who violate this clause. Liu Simin, a well-known expert and special researcher at the Tourism Research Center of China Academy of Social Sciences, said that to improve the operability of the law, it is necessary not only to clarify the rights and obligations of tourists, but also to impose targeted penalties on tourists who do not comply with this clause, and to issue corresponding punishment rules and implement them.
The penalty rules for the destruction of cultural relics should be refined.
Liu Simin said that scribbling on cultural relics has actually violated laws and regulations, but many tourists don't know enough about it. Moreover, there are no detailed legal provisions on what kind of cultural relics should be graffiti and what kind of crimes should be set. Because of this, some tourists will boldly scribble on cultural relics to show off their "trip".
In Liu Simin's view, the destruction of cultural relics should be clearly divided according to the level. Cultural relics themselves are graded. For example, cultural relics can be divided into national first-class cultural relics and local cultural relics. Damage to different levels of cultural relics will be punished accordingly.
As for how to avoid similar situations, Liu Simin said that the effective use of legal means can fundamentally protect the ancient cultural relics scribbled by tourists. He bluntly said that measuring crimes according to the size of cultural values and the degree of destruction can be achieved by clarifying judicial interpretations and further refining legal provisions and implementation rules. Only by further refining the corresponding punishment measures can we effectively make up for the limitations of the current cultural relics protection law and related laws and regulations.
He mentioned that although the recently promulgated Tourism Law also requires tourists to abide by the code of conduct, the relevant punishment rules for tourists who do not abide by relevant laws and regulations are not clear, so they lack maneuverability. Although overseas, domestic laws and regulations on cultural relics protection are not applicable, tourists still have to do as the Romans do. What's more, the destruction of cultural relics is universally acknowledged as a reprehensible act, but the relevant legal rules of different countries are different, the amount of crimes is different, and the degree of punishment is also different.
Let "come here for a visit" have a reasonable expression channel.
"Influenced by China culture,' a visit to this place' used to be the ink left by scholars when they traveled around famous mountains and rivers, but now it has become a memorial and expression for China tourists to express their feelings in a certain place." Luo Yibo analyzed. Therefore, in his view, while condemning these immoral and uncivilized behaviors, it is even more necessary to guide tourists and let them express their feelings of "coming here" through correct and legal channels. For example, build a "message wall" and put it in a conspicuous position for tourists to leave messages, sign their names or write down their feelings about this trip. Now it is often seen in inns of some famous tourist destinations in China, but it has not been popularized in large scenic spots. Lao Yibo said that this practice has gradually become popular in Japan, Australia and other countries. There are "message wall" and "writing board" in the scenic spot, so that visitors can express their feelings and give play to their creativity. This service can even take the form of a fee. In short, it is necessary to warn tourists not to doodle everywhere, but also to provide them with an appropriate channel to express themselves.
