When traveling to foreign places, it is important to take into consideration differences in culture and what may and may not be considered acceptable behavior. Recently, the Chinese National Tourism Administration issued a 64-page etiquette guidebook in response to behavior of tourists abroad. (Huffington Post)
Tourism Etiquette
According to News.com, many tourists are guilty of exhibiting uncivilized behavior while traveling to other countries. Accustomed to our own cultures, mannerisms we regularly exhibit might have an entirely different meaning to those of different backgrounds or regions.

In the IGI Global chapter, Tourism Revitalization of Historic District in Perspective of Tourist Experience: A Case Study of San-Fang Qi-Xiang in Fuzhou City, China, similar guidelines are examined to enhance tourist experiences.

In this chapter, research professional Jiaming Liu of the Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, China, discusses ways to revitalize tourism. Lui’s goal is to provide techniques for enhancing and creating new perspectives of tourists to create the ultimate travel experience.

“Since 1960s, tourism revitalization has been widely practiced in domestic historic districts and this way has been approved by some researchers. However, some problems, including similar development mode, analogical tourist experience and tourism product, have occurred in tourism development of historic districts and destroyed both their unique value and urban individuality”.

Featured in the IGI Global title, Global Hospitality and Tourism Management Technologies, edited by Patricia Ordóñez de Pablos of the Universidad de Oviedo, Spain, Robert D. Tennyson of the University of Minnesota, USA and Jingyuan Zhao of the University of Québec at Montréal, Canada, this book provides emerging research topics on tourism, hospitality management, and cultural development in the 21st century.
