15 Guidelines For Chinese Tourists Abroad

New guidelines have been published by China for Chinese tourists venturing abroad. All this to improve the nation’s image.

And no, I am not making this up, Happy October holidays!

    1. Do not spit in public
    2. Do not litter in public pages
    3. Line up, don’t jump the queues at public venues
    4. Do not make pictures when a sign says “no pictures”
    5. Do not talk in loud voices
    6. Do not polish your shoes with bed linen or the hotel towel
    7. Do not smoke in Non-smoking areas
    8. Wear proper clothes
    9. Do not strip down to to the waist (for men) when it’s hot
    10. Do not wear pajamas in supermarkets or on the street
    11. Do not remove shoes and socks in airport terminals
    12. Men, observe the “ladies first” rule
    13. Flush after using the toilet
    14. Do not block other pedestrians by walking side by side on sidewalks
    15. And last but not least

    16. Do not force foreigners to pose for pictures
    17. If only these guidelines would also be issued inside China, besides wearing pajamas of course, it’s kind of nice.

  1. Wearing pajamas downtown in broad daylight seems to be a Shanghai thing – I haven’t seen it anywhere else in China.

    It’s interesting to note the difference between the way the Chinese act in public and the way they act in private. It’s like night and day.

  4. well, I have to say there are some interesting or strange guideline. e.g. The 12th one. I believe that the Chinese men are not belong to the impolite or the uncivilized ones. But different culture and different customs, to some extent, have influence them a lot. I believe Chinese will pay more attention to the guideline.
