What travel traps have you encountered when traveling abroad?

Trap 1: fake specialties and snacks

Fake specialties and snacks are one of the most common tourist traps for consumers. There is a "no recommendation guide" circulating on the Internet: Beijingers don't recommend Nanluoguxiang, Shanghainese don't recommend Chenghuang Temple, and Xiamen people don't recommend Gulangyu Island ... There are always some "authentic", "specialty" and "time-honored" shops in snack streets in these cities, but they sell squid, roasted wings and other foods, which makes tourists mistakenly think that they are local specialties or snacks.

Experienced tourists will find that the most authentic snacks are often hidden in the neighborhood where local people live. Visitors can pay more attention to the city's local food strategy before traveling, find authentic local food, and avoid blindly following the trend. In addition, flower cakes, beef jerky, etc. The resident products in the business circle are all selling specialties around the scenic spots. Silver ornaments, jade articles, pearls, shells and other items are very common in all parts of the country, and it is not recommended to buy them in tourist areas.

Trap 2: Shanzhai Scenic Area

Shanzhai scenic spot is also a tourist trap that people often encounter-if you don't make a strategy before traveling, tourists are particularly gullible.

Shanzhai attractions often have no ornamental value. By exaggerating publicity, cooperate with black tour guides and black car drivers to attract tourists. For example, in Xi 'an, absurd sites such as the Qin Mausoleum, eight wonders of the world and Hongmen Banquet have appeared. The historical relics presented in these scenic spots, such as the wax coffin of Qin Shihuang, "double eyelids, red mouth", terracotta warriors and horses, the statue of Siyang Square, and the coffin of Pharaoh Khufu, make people laugh and cry.

Trap 3: buying and selling are full of tricks.

Buy hard and sell hard, and different versions are derived in various destinations. A few years ago, low-priced tour groups were rampant, and the phenomenon of "abandoning customers and not buying" often appeared. In the past two years, with the development of various governance, the phenomenon of unreasonable low-priced tour groups has improved, but it has not been completely eliminated.
