Watched a TV program few days back.
It was introducing a book and its author. It was talking about how dirty and dark in the tourism world in China. For someone who like to travel, this was so shocking that my goosebumps was everywhere.
However come to think about it, tourism is dirty everywhere, not only China. Local are always thinking of ways to con tourist moneys, no matter traveling with tour or F&E (free and easy). So the only thing that we can do is it learn how to not get con too much.
People that are able to read chinese, better go get this book !
