I visited Kyoto for 5 days in 2010 and had a lovely time. I saw the Geishas trying to go about their business, groups of tourists getting photos of the back of their heads as they hurried away. I had been advised not to bother them, so I didn't. I didn't speak any japanese, but I learnt enough to buy stuff etc (I was alone) and I also learned how to say "Excuse me do you mind if I take a picture?". So when I was waiting to cross the road, and a Geisha stopped beside me to do same, I was prepared. "Hello", I said, "You look great, do you mind if I take a photo?", I said. " Of course you can" she replied, and she struck a modest pose and I got a picture that I still admire to this day. "Thank you very much" I said, she smiled and nodded politely and we both went on our way. It's not hard to be nice, people.

Lousy tourist really do ruin everything it makes me worry I’ll get lumped into there ilk if I ever make the trip

[@escandolosoamargo]

@@michaelsneddon4300 Well I highly recommend it, I had a really nice time in Koshi, Kyoto and Osaka, didn't go to Tokyo. :-) I don't know but I feel it might be better to go alone, learn a little Japanese (nobody expects you to speak Japanese, but a little goes a long way), and be polite and respectful. Avoiding tourist restaurants and bars and sticking to quieter venues is good too. Nobody has a problem with the nice foreigner in the corner, and people feel more comfortable approaching you :-) The language is of course a problem, but I learned what to say in a shop, literally "Hello, I would like (this) please. Thank you. Goodbye" which also works in restaurants combined with pointing! And "I would like to go to (here) for taxis and train tickets, and like I said, "Do you mind if I take a photo please". That kind of thing. A conversation with a Geisha is maybe not going to happen though, unless you go to a Geisha house where they speak English don't get your hopes up.

I'll never forget when I was in South Korea back in 2019 I'd accidentally walked into 'the wrong bar'. It was a bar that Americans weren't exactly welcomed in, but I'd already been drinking and just forgot. Walked in, sat at the bar, and in the best Korean I could muster I asked the bartender "May I have a beer, please?" He gave me a curious look and in broken English said "You probably shouldn't be here..." a bouncer walked over but the bartender said something I didn't understand and then said "because you were polite you may have one beer, but then must leave."

Went to Yellowstone as a kid. One day we went to go see the geysers and we all saw this wild Buffalo wandering through. Everyone all quietly and quickly got outta the way keeping our distance just looking at this beautiful creature. Then outta the crowd this little kid full sprint runs out towards the Buffalo it felt like slowmo you feel your blood run cold some people I remember exclaimed "oh my god" but then like a bullet this dude ran out of the side of the crowd and scooped grabbed her and as she started to cry he covered her mouth till the Buffalo was a good distance away. Most likely saved that girls life but I remember the mom being so mad at the dude for making her cry and covering her mouth, I believe she was claiming he was trying to "suffocate her daughter" it was a whole thing we had to wait till the Rangers came out and question us.

These aren't tourists. A tourist takes pictures, asks questions and gets lost easily.

This isn't tourism. Make a fitting term for it if you like but don't call them tourists.

[@NeutralGuyDoubleZero]

Sorry but that's the way it is. The definition of tourist is someone who travels to another country for a temporary stay for their own interests. There's good tourists and bad tourists, not hard to understand lol

[@clutch1141]

@NeutralGuyDoubleZero Tourism is tourism. It isn't a business trip, a layover, or a venture of criminal activity , or being a deliberate nuisance to profit for the approval of others. The word "tourist" is derivative of "tour" which means to travel for enjoyment and/or immersion of nature/culture. So, no, "tourism" does not mean a temporary stay for your own interests. It has a specific meaning and is not a catch-all term for being away from home. Pretty basic concept that i was able to learn as a child lol.

[@clutch1141]

@NeutralGuyDoubleZero You almost had a thought there, but in your careless abandon to be right, you forgot the simple question of why people have always traveled for pleasure in the first place. It is to have new experiences with nature and culture. It starts there and ends there without exception. Filming yourself disrespecting people and cultures only for the purpose of other assholes to participate for a fee is simply not tourism and only a clown would argue that it is.

Few years ago someone threw bottles of soda spiked with narcotics into his cage, leading to him going into psychosis (not as interesting as it sounds).

When I visited Japan in 2013, I learned a very valuable phrase: "Shashin o totte mo ii desu ka?" May I take a photo? My homestead mom taught me this. Unlike the United States, people's privacy is taken super seriously in Japan. To the point, that people will blur out faces of strangers in the backgrounds of their photos. Heck, I was even stopped from taking photos in a museum in Fukuoka. It's so sad that so many things I got to experience, such as the Tuna auctions at Toyosu Fish Market and the Gion District in Kyoto, are prohibiting tourists because of our awful behavior. Papameat, here are some tips before you go: Don't stab your food with chopsticks, Don't talk loudly on public transit, Don't walk and eat at the same time (finding trashcans is next to impossible FYI), have your exact change ready when leaving busses or they will get pissed off, ask someone before taking a photo, Good luck finding an exit at Shinjuku station.

Which is why the EU passed the General Data Protection Regulation which part of the bill says, no filming or photographing anyone at anytime unless you have express permission.

A relative of mine lived there and once she forgot to lock her door when she went grocery shopping and when she came back people were inside her house.

[@attabooii]

@@kingcockroach.yeah it's mostly stemming from people not knowing the difference between roadside zoos and accredited zoos.

And very few zoos have breeding programs for them!

[@Silvermoon424]

@@kingcockroach. Unfortunately I think some people are just ignorant of the importance and function of accredited zoos. A lot of unaccredited zoos are genuinely horrible for animals, so I definitely understand why a lot of people who have only ever seen those types of zoos oppose the concept of zoos in general.

[@artlove9577]

I try to express this to people all the time. Majority of people tend to not care about things that they've never interacted with, or know very little about. A person is way more likely to defend dolphins and whales being in tiny tanks, as opposed to a deer in another country that they've only heard of occasionally. And that's because they have seen dolphins and whales so much, either in person or through media, that they have developed an attachment to that animal and don't want to see it go. There are so many things for people to care about, it's hard to even think about something that's not right in front of you. A lot of these attachments happen during childhood too, I know I personally have been obsessed with Orca's since I was a child, and that was all because I saw free willy and then later got to see a pod in person. The education and experience brought on by zoos is HUGE for conservation. I think the most important part is choosing the right zoos to support. As I have seen others say, you can usually tell by the enclosures and health of the animals alone. Most accredited zoos keep visitors as hidden from the animals as possible, whether that be one way glass, sound proofing, or foliage cover. The only animals they have interact with guests, are ambassador animals that show no signs of stress or aggression being around people. And even then they put a lot of effort in place to protect them from uncaring visitors.

[@sadiesnail]

@@artlove9577 Yes! Exposure is the word you are looking for, and it is extremely important for conservation. even though it's not related to zoos, a good example is the way people view snakes now. When I was a child, everyone I talked to hated snakes. My parents refused to ever let me have one, and said they would never visit if I got one. They would kill any snake that showed up in our area, venomous or not. Skip ahead 15 years, and I am always shocked about how excited people get when I say I keep them. I fully believe a huge part of that is how much people share videos and pictures of their snakes online. Snakes with Hats was huge for making people switch from seeing them as scary, to cute noodles with little cat faces. And from there, it's spread to all sorts of species and has even led to people pushing to protect their native species. Which is a big win for venomous snakes, since traditionally they have only been viewed as a threat to kill, even if you are out in the woods away from them. People need to be exposed to them in order to care, and that goes for way more than just wildlife.

Once security got her down, she was shouted insults, bottles of water were thrown at her, and people were calling for her to be thrown to jail.

Bruh in Switzerland Chinese tourists are rude af. I was looking at a bracelet display and this Chinese lady rushed over and tried to cover it to stop me from buying anything(i didnt want to buy anyway). We tried to take a nice photo at a water fall and a group came over and tried to shoo us away because we took 0.000002 too long and they wanted pictures. They'd get made at staff for not knowing their language and just try and take over anything so only they could access it

[@dennisneumann869]

When my family and I visited moscow before the pandemic and stood in line for Lenin's mausoleum, there was a whole chinese tourist group who tried constantly to skip the line by pushing around or walk past. Contrary to some others who would give in, my dad held them in check and just kept on pushing them back and they screamed and complained as if they had the right to do so the whole time.

[@killerbeanmachine]

dude Chinese tourists are rude asf. when I went to ren fair a few years ago a Chinese woman literally sat on me while I was watching one of the live shows and then acted like I wasn't there. Like she literally sat ON me. and then just looked at me. I had to scoot over, not her.

In Niagara falls lining up to get into one of the attractions, watched some lil punk kid scratching up the paintwork with a rock. His parents just stood there and said nothing. People really suck some times

To be fair, that tourist area holds the same cultural value as Walmart. Kid was making improvements if anything.

My partner was in Iceland looking at a beautiful pristine waterfall and surrounding environment. There were signs all around saying not to cross the little chain fence because the mosses were hundreds of years old and extremely delicate.. but some tourists chose to ignore that all and hop over so they could get a better photo of the waterfall. Just the most thoughtless, entitled c*nts around.

[@justacrittic1578]

We have something similar where I live, they're refered to as piss-ants here, as they come in swarms during summer, means you can't sit anywhere, and are in general just a nuisance.

This is why people can't have nice things and there's always war. There is a constant need to be a nuisance and to be brazen enough to act on impulses. They have interpreted the meaning of "pushing the boundaries" negatively.

I live next to one of Norrbotten's oldest churchtowm, of which we had problems with tourists who insisted on wanting to scratch their names on these 17th century wooden buildings. It began to cease after harsher punishments were introduced.

How many rewatched the girl get flipped by the Buffalo. Also I read somewhere the Chinese destroyed a cruise ship profits by rushing the all you can eat buffets. They would take way too much food and waste what they couldn’t eat. The ones that flipped the gondola, I wonder how many got pink eye from the water.

I remember the water smelling kind of unpleasant when I visited, so I'd be surprised if they didn't.

Don't go to cat cafe's, it's not pleasant at all and some are pretty dirty. Some cats seem to be just straight up tired of people and you can tell they're not happy.

[@dodobirdtime]

I imagine there's many cats who like people but also want their alone time, I love my boyfriends cat but I make sure to give her space when I can tell she's had enough. I feel bad for those cats who will then be called aggressive simply because they want their space away from people and probably other cats too

[@tobytowns1]

$15 just to sit with some cats aint worth

[@xduwu4257]

Depends on where you go. There's a cat cafe not too far from me, they've only been open a few years and adopted out thousands of cats. There's another one in the city that's apparently pretty shit, so I haven't been. The cats aren't for adoption and they don't control the amount of people coming into the cafe so it can get very busy and overwhelming for the cats.

[@mixievee]

Depends on the cat cafe. I went to one where the owners took great care of the cats. Everything was clean. The place was huge, which gave the cats space. Plus there were rooms that only staff/cats could access, when the cat wanted to stay away (which some cats did). Plus the cat cafe helped hundreds of cats get adopted from the shelters.
