I don't like the idea of this list While there are a few Chinese bad behaving tourists, like you'd find from any country, the vast majority are well behaved and friendly.

A very interesting and historic place to visit. Visited twice. First time it was snowing so hard when my wife and I visited, that we had to use a rain umbrella to keep from becoming a snowman or snow woman. Photo from the second visit without the snow.
