I literally got pushed with two hands by a Chinese tourist in Vegas watching the Bellagio fountain show. She walked up and pushed me, despite the fact that I was at least a foot taller and probably outweighed her by 40 pounds. I was incredulous at such direct rudeness. She wanted my spot and that’s the way she decided to take it. I pushed back and yelled at her and she looked astonished. How can behavior like this be considered OK by any culture?

I watched a video about Chinese tourists who drove Parisians crazy. They'd spit on the floor inside restaurants and would find it strange that none of the French staff spoke Chinese. There is also a sign in Chinese in the Louvre courtyard that says, "Don't defecate on the museum grounds." It's not written in any other language.

I went to Bangkok with my family last year and we went to one of the tallest buildings,for a buffet. There were sooo many Chinese tourists And I was so shocked cuz we had to wait for 15-20 minutes just to get into the elevator,then after the buffet We were waiting for the elevator , to go down (we were the first ones to wait) Then suddenly a huge crowd of Chinese tourists came and just pushed us and my sister and I lost my mom and dad and my brother *Found our parents downstairs but we had to look for my brother for 1 hour Turns out the tourists gave him no chance to get in the elevator 🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m an Asian American and I deal with this crap everyday. In my college there’s a large international student population but they don’t even bother to learn English. They get mad at you for not speaking Chinese and they spit on the ground in the school building. Who the hell spits during class onto the floor. They will smoke inside and would get mad if security forces them to leave. Not only that there’s a park near my college. They will literally leave all their trash on the ground and not bother to throw it out. It’s fucking filthy, if you’re visiting a country you weren’t raised in mind your manners.

Unbelievably rude people.

"We can't spit on the ground not like in China" Hmmmmm, okay

I was in Japan and they were loud and disrespectful to the peace of the shrine. They climb on everything. Real show offs.

"Ignorance of local culture and regulations" That's the biggest load of crap I've ever heard. It's common sense to not touch exhibits and speak softly indoors. These people are just plain rude and narcissistic.

Hands down the worst tourist around. I'll never forget seeing a Chinese tour group in Disney World 4 years ago and watching as the mother changed her childs diaper in view of everyone in front of Gastons Tavern in Magic Kingdom. She then took the dirty diaper and left it on the ground. I remember two cast members who appear to have been managers immediately disposing of the diaper and then confronting the guide

Oh yes... and in public spaces around Sydney Australia... Chinese parent's allow their children to piss in the street, or alley way... and even in the corners inside buildings like large museums... a disgraceful and disrespectful culture.... and yes I have witnessed these events..

The Chinese make EXCUSES about being ignorant. Well, look at OTHER people. If people don't know what to do, then DON"T DO it.

I work at a tourist destination in LA and I see dozens of these tour groups weekly. let me tell you: they drive me and my coworkers crazy. They are extremely rude and disrespectful, they leave trash EVERYWHERE, they pretend to not understand me when I'm guesturing for them not to smoke (right next to small children!!), and I can't even tell you all the gross things they've done. Is it really normal in China for small children to just pull down their pants and piss in a public area when we have bathrooms available? is it normal in China not to wash your hands after using the bathroom?? is it normal to just blow smoke in the face of infants??? I honestly can't wrap my head around these tour groups...

And there are ten thousands of them visiting a tiny city everyday. How do you think that city feels? Welcome to Hong Kong.

Proof that having money won't buy you class.

They're just arrogant that's there problem

I don't care what they do, just don't let them drive.

What do you expect from peasents? Even rich chinese have no etiquettes.

I've been to China several times and I think the problem stems from people simply behaving rudely in their own country, so naturally when they travel overseas, they carry the same rude behaviours with them. The Chinese shouldn't need to be taught manners for the purposes of travelling abroad, they should simply be practising manners as a matter of course every day, including at home. That way when they travel, they simply behave politely as they do back at home. But no, whenever I go to China, I frequently encounter... * Absolute lack of table manners (except for covering their mouths when using toothpicks; seems to be the only polite thing they do at the table) * No sense of turn taking or queuing. Be it on the road or on foot, people frequently push in and shove. * SHOUTING! There are a lot of Chinese people who need to be mindful to stop using their outdoor voice when indoors! * Public toilets be like... I don't even want to describe it... * Smoking manners also non existent. Although smokers everywhere are pretty much bad, Chinese smokers are especially terrible. I've been on buses in China where there are massive "No Smoking" signs, and passengers and even drivers smoke on board! * Chinese people deface their own cultural relics! Anyone who's been to the Great Wall of China can see that the public part of the wall is _covered_ in graffiti etched into the stones. And it's not even particularly clever graffiti, it's all just "Ping was here." Yeah... that's it. Temples, palaces etc. are all in poor condition. Contrast this with visiting ancient relics in Taiwan or Japan where relics and sites are in immaculate condition because people respect and preserve their heritage! * They fart in your face as a matter of course. Is this a greeting that they don't teach in phrase books? No, I am not making this up. * Abysmal customer service (or utter lack thereof). I've had store keepers outright lie to me and even cheat me of my money. The complete reverse of shopping say in Japan or Taiwan. * Anti-social? My daughter attends both Chinese and Japanese language schools. The parents are her Japanese school are all really friendly and polite, and I've made friends with many other parents there. The parents at her Chinese school are all aloof and keep to themselves. When we come to pick up our children, most of the other parents either keep to themselves with their heads buried in their phones, or to their own cliques. I find the parents are her Japanese school to be far more inclusive. * Deliberately unhelpful. If you don't speak Japanese but you ask a Japanese person for help in another language, they will often bend over backwards to try and help you. But as a non-Chinese speaker, sometimes when I ask strangers for help, I either get ignored or even yelled at in an abusive tone of voice. Even when I'm trying to write down what I want to say (because I can read/write Chinese characters), they refuse to look at what I'm writing and simply shove their hand in my face. Wow. ^This has been my personal experience anyway.

Plus they need to teach or introduce words "thank you" and "sorry" in their curriculum.

"Don't touch the relics" wtf? bruh they need reminders for that?? I bust out laughing when I heard that.

Learn some manners from Japanese.

last year I went to yellow stone and universal studio for family road trip and there were no many rude un mannered chinese tourists.. they tried to cut in line, talk very loud, they also littered..

The most amazing and annoying thing is also when they randomly pull out people from the crowd and force take a picture with them, without any word of explanation. Happened to me already 23 times, all around the world. I don't know what to think about that

I was once at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport on October 2016, I was about to get to my gate when I saw 3 Chinese children standing on a Snake-Statue of some kind. And there’s a sign that literally says in Thai,English “Do not touch or climb this” And their parents just stood there and watched them. I stood there in disbelief.

It's one thing for tourist to do something inappropriate while abroad, but it's another when they don't want to listen or even get physically aggressive when you tell them not to do something

The finger gesture to ask someone to come towards is NOT common in the US. I have never seen anyone do that anywhere in the US.

I was once being pushed over by a Chinese family at the airport. I was waiting in the line at the scanning machine when suddenly came a Chinese family, talking loudly and cut the queue. I was trying to fight for my rightful spot but they effortlessly won. Clearly they have done it too many times already.

manners, only that they forgot to teach in school when they were kids

They have no perception of space or making room for other people. Busy fighting over milk powder in supermarkets. Horrible.

About the male chinese tour guide interviewed at the beginning of the video: that gesture with your pointer finger is considered rude in America. Who told you that it's not? Of course it's rude! Duh!

Take a single sheet of napkin on the ground. Baby take a 1lbs sht on it. And they leave it next not into a metal garbage bin.

Nothing good to say about them so, i will keep silent!!

I do not discriminate Chinese Tourists as a whole but some are just out of the line. One time in a America the Chinese tourist just dropped the empty chips bag instead of throwing it and courtesy of the wind it went towards my face.

if they have to mind their manners, what is their usual level of manners? I was disgusted by them on my holiday in Japan!

I went to Arlington National Cemetery a few years ago and as we went up near Kennedy's grave, a group of Chinese tourists with their "guide" came up snapping pictures, pushing by some people while talking extremely loud. I don't have a problem with tourists, but there was a goddamn sign there telling you to be quiet. It was ridiculous

Chinese's bad attitude and manner in public are the only problems that they would never bother to copy or steal from other countries. Many Asian countries you can name, like Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia, Loas, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Mongolia, have been teaching kids about public manner and decent attitude to each other, friends, parents and seniors. Modern China just lost that old Chinese culture. I'm not saying all of them. Some Chinese friends of mine are well mannered and respectful to others.

When I was in boarding school as a born and raised Canadian with basic western manners, Chinese mainland students would never wash their hands after using the toilet. Hong Kong, Taiwanese and Japanese people are all far more respectable and well behaved.

This will takes at least 50 years of continuous education to their young generation before they can act civilized.... Chinese are good at copying... but wondering why they can never copy the good manner from other countries..

Many Chinese tourists ignore whatever they are taught about proper behavior while in the west. But Chinese people insist that Westerners adhere to Chinese behavior rules while in China.

the one of the parents educating the kids was refreshing. Too bad I have never seen that in all my years in China.

Had a chinese guy walking around at the hotel lobby in only his swimming trunk while loudly calling his family to come over. Bunch of ther guest was there and feeling uncomfortable. when the hotel staff told him he's not allowed to dress like that at the lobby he ignorantly told the staff he paid for his stay.

Culture my ass. It isn't hard to follow what others are doing. You know, when in Rome do as the Romans do.

Ever been to Mainland China? They have horrible manners in their own country---it's pervasive. What nonsense that they just "don't know the local customs" when they travel.

I worked at an international airport for many years. Out of all the flights from several different countries, we dreaded the ones from Mainland China. Some comments say other tourists from other countries are just as bad. I and most of the people who worked at the airport will disagree.

I'd be so embarrased if my fellow country ppl misbehave in other countries so much that whenever i travel i'd be considered that label ... 🤦‍♀️

I do think they know, they just don’t care for others.

As a Hong Kong local, that’s what we need to dealt with every day! Thank god for the stupid CCP pandemic policies which stopped them from reopening. I am celebrating the 30th months of not seeing a wild Chinese tourist. Lol

"Chinese people need to learn the difference in culture". No, that's just common sense, in all civilized countries is disgusting and rude to spit in the floor and insult other people. Chinese tourists just don't care about it.

They are many that live around me in my country. Complete disregard to us as they spit everywhere. People in my country do not spit on rubbish bins nor concrete where others must walk. It is seen as almost the height of disgusting behaviour.

So it's also in their culture to shit in public?

In the train terminal in Kyoto there was a sign in the information centre about proper manners. It was in Mandarin only and wasn't translated into other languages. Wonder why...

Yea, It's really not changing

In recent times, the US and China have always been in competition. When it comes to the worst tourists, I'm sorry, Americans, but the Chinese have just pipped you to the post on this one.

Grand Canyon experience: waiting for a shuttle bus and was 2nd in line. Some Chinese tourists with kids sent their kids up to the front of the line and then waited a few moments later the parents came along and nudged their way past the 1st person in line. The bus driver saw what had happened and stepped out and said, "all disabled people to the front of the line" and 8 or 9 people came up and he sat them in the first 3 rows and then started asking the people who had been first in line to step in side. By the time he was done the Chinese people had to wait for the next bus. I have found that the great majority of Asian people are easy to get along with, friendly and nice and interested in sharing their culture but as tourists they need lessons in the great American tradition of how to stand in line and be patient.

STOP BEING LOUD!! Is that so very difficult?

Most of this is from the boomer generation, they grew up poor during developing China, with so many people in the country, pushing and shoving was usually the only way to get things done

I've seen a group of Chinese tourists in Bicester Village on a shopping trip. The tourists were not particularly rude(talking loudly etc) but I saw their guide being more civil than the others.

It's not that they're ignorant, they choose to ignore the law because they "pay for it".

I lived in China for many years and spitting is a huge problem, especially in some cities. In one area I lived which was close to Beijing city centre, you couldn't go outside for more than 10 minutes without hearing disgusting spitting noises. I couldn't go for a walk anywhere without stressing out about this. Many times, people on e-bikes just spat without looking who was around them. You have really got to be aware of everyone when you go out if this habit bothers you. Also, it's everywhere on the ground. You have to constantly watch where you're walking. They don't care where they do it so other people have to suffer. It really made me stressed for many years. I'm not generalising here. There are many people who don't do this but there are also far too many who do. Also, smoking is allowed pretty much anywhere. You might be in a shop, someone walks in smoking and then you have to either quickly get out whilst walking through a cloud of smoke or just hang around until they leave. It's horrible for non smokers. Smoking is a very anti social habit, affecting everyone else who doesn't smoke. In China, it's a struggle to avoid it. Restaurants try to encourage people not to smoke in restaurants, some successfully with signs, but it can't be enforced legally. It's just too big a population to control in terms of these issues and it will never get resolved. Be aware of this if you're planning on visiting China.

This is all we've ever asked for... This is truly beautiful. India take notes.

I was in Vietnam and my family and I went to the ruins my ancestors had built and it was nice and peaceful, until I noticed in the distance that a tour bus had pulled up. To my surprise I didn’t think these ruins were a place that people had toured. I was so wrong, I saw Chinese people scrambling to get off the bus and they all stampeded and pushed my family and I out of the way so they could take pictures. They were so loud and rude, but not all of them are like that

I want to share some past experience to improve mutual understanding, tolerance and remedy -- Today Japanese tourists are remarked as very polite, right ? But in the 60' era , I had seen at least 2 complaints on newspaper in Hong Kong. That there were some Japanese tourists pissed in the street. Some male Japanese tourists just walked into lady rooms. The remedy is so easy and simple. Please make it compulsory that the "Travel Agency" in China should run some education session etc. before trips.

Glad to see this education on good behaviour, respect n manners reinforced by tour operators. Such lessons should also start in schools and at home so that such good behaviour, respect n manners become natural habits right up to adulthood within China n outside China.

it's bad when you have to talk to them like they were kindergarten kids "now, boys and girls! what do you do when you see 'do not touch' sign?" "WE TOUCH IT!" "no no no, you silly kids"

99% of Chinese people are named Li. how can they tell each other apart when they all have the same name?

I went to paris and there were so many of them, they literally block everyone's view during the seine river ride by keep taking pictures and stand in front of the deck. Not to mention back when i was back in my hometown Vietnam having vacation, i was accidentally booked a hotel that has way too many chinese, they took all the food at the breakfast buffet, there were nothing left to eat and it was just 8am...Oh boy

This was 2015...Now after 5 years nothing changed.

Good individuals must have respect for other individuals like not lying, harming innocents and their properties, no discrimination based on differences and one individuals has equal power of rights to any other whole groups.

6 years on NOTHING HAS CHANGED

and as a bonus these people are responsible for the killing of elephants ' bears ' tigers and rhinos to name a few they just don't get it

I saw a Chinese guy take a shit in front of a restaurant in Zurich. Worst part: he didn’t wipe. #like_a_boss.

Lol, just excuses. You don't have to know everything about a foreign place's culture to have proper tourist manners and respect for the monuments. You can just simply ask the tour guide about specific rules and courtesies but obviously being really loud, touching monuments and attractions, and pissing in public places are generally bad manners.

I like it when they cut in front of me at the airport . It reminds me to walk a little faster. Soo what I like to daydream on long walks 🖕🏽

Probably the worst example of insensitivity I have seen was at the S-21 torture and extermination prison in Phnom Penh Cambodia where the Khmer Rouge murdered thousands of innocent civilians yet Chinese tourists delight in chasing Pokemon characters through the prison complex with little regard for the site's sanctity. The sad irony of course is that the Chinese were primary supporters of the Pol Pot Regime between 1975 and 1979.

The worst tourist, the worst government, and the worst country ever.

They don't care about learning about the countries they visit. It's all about one thing for them. Face.

How is that a common gesture in the US? I’ve only seen that be used when you pass your buddy in elementary school

Could it be because they come from a country that is run by a dictatorship in a sense, and very different from the outside world and they have less exposure to other cultures than what we normally see from tourists, so they don't know exactly what is considered socially acceptable? Edit: I think sometimes it can play a role

In the US, using the index finger to signal someone over is not a nice thing to do. Do that to a gangster and see your finger broken.

The title of this video gives me life

I thought the title said mind their business 😂

Even CGTN uploaded this kind of video lol

I often saw Chinese tourist in Malaysia climb over restricted area eventho there's a sign written in english. They also loud and can't speak language other than mandarin and also impatient.

In Bali at a restaurant, a big group of Chinese were all spitting food scraps on the floor and getting the Balinese to clean it up for them...nice

Tbh I seen many westerners spit as well, just that they say sorry if they saw you nearby. Its not uncommon to see westerners disrespecting places of worship, undressing and climbing all over monuments, I feel that it is the same, they did not know that they are not suppose to do that, and of course there is some that just ignore the rules but the comments section seem to be very harsh on the mainland chinese without considering this happens quite often with other tourist as well, just that due to the large china population, it is more common to see them do such acts

They should first go on a lumberjack logging course

riding a bus in china is the most fun i ever had. never seen so much spitting and loud talking in my life.

Whatever the excuse or reason , it's a good start to educate and i have faith that it will work fôr better. Yes, much room for improvement.

They have no maners or respect, I've seen it first hand.

There is a difference between the mainland Chinese and those who are overseas. Their behaviour is like this because of the poverty that they have been surrounded by their whole lives, though this is rudeness is unacceptable regardless. As a Chinese-Canadian, I apologize on behalf of our rude mainland counterparts. Even we don’t want to associate with them.

You do not deserves to be rude. My nationality is American and I’m ethnically Chinese. So America is also part of my blood. Be respectful

The worst tourists I must agree, I’m Chinese but when I went to Hong Kong and queued at a theme park, all the mainland grandads and grandmas just pushed and shoved as if they were going to get on any faster, absolutely the worst

Combination of everything. Understanding and respecting each other's culture. Be educated before traveling to another country unknown to you. Be respectful.

I appreciate pack wild buffalos visit my city then à Chinese tourists

Nearly 10 years later, they are not listening.

I live in China. They're not bad people. If anything, most of them are wonderful folks. Some mistakes they make when traveling abroad are out of ignorance, not evil. It's ok to remind them once in a while about certain rules when travelling, bot no need to be mean to anyone, especially when they pay.

Whenever I ask someone if they are Chinese, they always go "No! I'm American Chinese! I was raised here!!" ppl in Hong Kong had the same reaction. They never like mainland Chinese unless their siblings.

Idk I live in Canada and honestly I’ve seen a lot of tourists here in Banff , most Chinese tourists here are actually quite well mannered , but I’ve seen a couple groups that are more ‘rude’ , and that mostly consists of old Chinese people and people in their forty or fifties . And not gonna lie a lot of Korean tourists especially Korean old people are quite loud too ? I asked my family d friends and they said that it’s because the ones that were not so well educated especially like to travel in huge tour groups because it’s cheaper and they do the research and planning for you? Where as people that are more educated would behave normally and not stand out as much and just took in the sceneries quietly. I definitely don’t think those few rude Chinese tourists should be made to represent the country though. I mean to be fair North Americans are known to do some pretty stupid stuff in other countries as well so 😂😂😂 I guess do your research before you take off

Not ignorant. Intentionally abusive.

Constantly hearing negative things about Chinese tourist.
