Of course, tourists must abide by the bottom line of civilization and cultivate their cultural literacy. At the same time, scenic spots must also be responsible and set an example.
Recently, in Haixi Prefecture, Qinghai, a video of a woman walking barefoot into the Chaka Salt Lake caused controversy among netizens.
The staff of the scenic spot responded: The scenic spot is not allowed to go to the lake with bare feet. After the tourists took photos, the staff stopped them. Because Chaka Salt Lake is a production base for edible salt, walking barefoot will cause damage to the salt lake. For distance experience, you can rent environmentally friendly shoe covers in the scenic spot.
Chaka Salt Lake, also known as "the realm of the sky".
This salt field, which was first mined by the Qiang people in the Western Han Dynasty, has undergone changes over time, and has become a poem and a distant place in the hearts of millions of tourists. It has also been selected as a national must-see by National Geographic One of the 55 scenic spots.
However, Chaka Salt Lake, like many Internet celebrity attractions, cannot withstand the "unlimited" trampling and destruction.
"Develop while protecting, protect while developing" is the bottom line requirement.
The woman walks back and forth into the Chaka Salt Lake with bare feet - although it satisfies the tourists' desire to "shoot a blockbuster", it is bound to bring a bad demonstration to the scenic spot.
This kind of uncivilized behavior that is visible to the naked eye really needs to be inspected and criticized.
Civilization requires not only self-discipline and consciousness, but also legal constraints and cost regulation.
However, tourism civilization is not one-dimensional.
For example, according to the Chaka Salt Lake Scenic Spot, bare feet will cause damage to the salt lake, so it is necessary to rent shoe covers from the scenic spot to go down to the lake.
But netizens questioned, can all the problems be solved once the shoe cover is worn?
Since it is an edible salt production base, it is disgusting to step on bare feet, but wearing shoe covers will not damage it?
Where does it work?
What is the fee standard?
For these questions, the scenic spot may wish to give a clear explanation.
As long as the communication is in place and tourists accept it from the inside out, the phenomenon of barefoot entering the lake will become less and less.
On the other hand, the tourist information on the official WeChat account of the Chaka Salt Lake Scenic Spot states: "Because the salt layer is relatively rough, to prevent foot injury, it is absolutely not allowed to go to the lake with bare feet. You must wear the shoe covers rented by the scenic spot." However, on the official website of the scenic spot and the publicity map of the public account, there are many tourists who are barefoot in the lake. Such publicity will inevitably mislead tourists.
As a national 4A-level tourist attraction, it should lead by example and raise the awareness of protection from the details.
There are two kinds of landscapes in the world, one is natural and cultural landscape, the other is social fashion landscape.
We often say that "everyone is a tourist image, and there is a tourist environment everywhere".
Of course, tourists must abide by the bottom line of civilization and cultivate cultural qualities. At the same time, the scenic spot must also be responsible for the soil, set an example, grasp the details of civilization, and implement the protection of scenic spots, so that tourism civilization can become a moving symphony of two-way travel.
