Dodge These Tourist Traps in Every City!

'Locals, stop trying to defend it!'
-
Right, right, that line is a classic.
-
Hangzhou, among the cities I've visited, is already doing a great job, yet there are still tons of people telling others to 'steer clear' of it.
-
Exactly. These 'princes' and 'princesses' are never satisfied no matter where they go.
-
Don't even get me started! When I'm in Shaanxi, I see posts about avoiding Xi'an all the time. When I go to Suzhou, it's warnings about Suzhou. Wherever I go, there are 'steer clear' advisories for it. I won't list all the places I've visited, but from my experience, I haven't encountered any major 'dealbreakers.' Even as someone who loves savory and spicy food, I didn't find the cuisine in Shanghai or Jiangsu unappetizing. How come there are so many of these 'human lightning rods' around?
-
Totally. Lately, I've also been seeing 'steer clear' posts for all sorts of places: Xi'an, Yangzhou, Nanjing, Suzhou... basically the entire Jiangsu province is being 'red-flagged.' These 'human lightning rods' should just stay home and not travel.
-
They can't even figure out the station themselves and then tell others not to come?! Seriously?
-
Xiaohongshu should just rename itself 'The Book of Don'ts' or 'Steer Clear Guide.'
-
These 'princes' and 'princesses' constantly flagging things to 'avoid' – they're too much. It's acceptable to complain if the scenery isn't as expected, but they whine about every tiny issue. I've traveled across more than half of China and faced plenty of setbacks. Am I supposed to issue a 'steer clear' warning for every single one? Now, I don't even bother reading guides or posts on Xiaohongshu anymore; there's no point.

Xi'an these days...
