假期出遊注意,這八個景點對遊客說“不”大綱
Koh Khai islands, Thailand
泰國蛋島The backbone of backpacker gap year travels, Thailand, is for the most part extremely tourist-friendly; but some places are now off limits because of environmental concerns. The islands of Koh Khai Nok, Koh Khai Nui and Koh Khai Nai, renowned for their colorful coral displays and previously popular with day-trippers from nearby Phuket, have been strictly prohibited since May 2016. The Department of Marine and Coastal Resources (DMCR) said that up to 80 percent of reefs have been degraded, and the decision was made to ban tourists as a result.
泰國是揹包客間隔年旅遊的好去處，多數情況下對遊客非常友好。但出於對環境的擔憂，一些地方開始對旅遊設限。蛋島由三個島嶼組成，分別是外雞蛋島、小雞蛋島和內雞蛋島，以色彩斑斕的珊瑚著稱，之前有很多遊客從附近的普吉島來一日遊。但從2016年5月起，泰國就嚴格限制了蛋島的旅遊業。泰國海洋和海岸資源部表示，多達80%的礁石已經退化，因此決定限制遊客。
Bhutan
不丹
Tourism in Bhutan only kicked off in 1974, but since then the decision has been made to highly regulate it to preserve the country's unspoiled landscape and unique culture. The kingdom on the edge of the Himalayas has a policy of "high value, low impact tourism". The upshot is that the number of tourists is restricted and that most visitors have to pay a whopping ￡190 a day for visas and fees for the privilege of seeing Bhutan.
不丹的旅遊業始於1974年，但從那以後，爲了保護自然風光和獨特文化，不丹就對旅遊業進行了嚴格的監管。地處喜馬拉雅山脈邊緣的不丹奉行“高價值、低影響”的旅遊政策。這一政策導致遊客人數受限，爲了去不丹旅遊，絕大多數遊客必須支付高達每日190英鎊（約合1700元人民幣）的簽證費和其他費用。Barcelona, Spain
西班牙巴塞羅那When Ada Colau, Barcelona's first female mayor, took office in 2015, she wasn't one to mince her words about the scourge that is tourism on her beloved city. “We don’t want the city to become a cheap souvenir shop,” said Colau, siting Venice as a cautionary tale. Since then she has frozen licences for all new hotels and holiday rental apartments and gone after short-term rental sites, slapping AirBnb with a Euro 30,000 fine. She has also proposed introducing a new tourist tax and limiting visitor numbers.
巴塞羅那第一位女市長艾達?克勞於2015年走馬上任時，她就直截了當地批評旅遊業危害到了她心愛的城市。克勞把威尼斯看作是一個警示故事，並說：“我們不想看到巴塞羅那成爲一個廉價的紀念品商店。”從那以後，她便凍結所有新酒店和度假出租公寓的牌照，監督租賃網站，並對愛彼迎開出3萬歐元（約合24萬元人民幣）的罰單。她還提出徵收新的遊客稅，限制遊客數量。Amsterdam, The Netherlands
荷蘭阿姆斯特丹Amsterdam’s head of marketing made it abundantly clear the city is a bit over tourists. Frans van der Avert, Amsterdam Marketing chief executive, said: “Cities are dying from tourism. No one will be living in the historic centres any more. A lot of smaller historic cities in Europe are getting destroyed by visitors.” While speaking at the World Tourism Forum in Lucerne, he added: “We don’t spend even Euro1 in marketing Amsterdam any more. We don’t want to have more people. We want to increase the quality of visitors – we want people who are interested in the city, not who want it as a backdrop for a party. We see lots of visitors with no respect for the character of the city. Low cost carriers create a problem. Ryanair [passengers] – they are the loudest.”
阿姆斯特丹市場營銷負責人多次強調遊客太多。該市市場營銷負責人弗蘭斯?範德?艾瓦特說：“旅遊業正在危害城市。再也不會有人住在歷史中心了。許多歐洲歷史小城正被遊客毀掉。”他在盧塞恩舉行的世界旅遊論壇上發言時還談到：“我們不會再花1歐元到旅遊市場上。我們也不想再接待更多的遊客。我們要的是遊客素質的提高，我們想要的是那些對阿姆斯特丹感興趣的人，而不是把它當做派對的背景牆。我們發現很多遊客不尊重當地特色。低成本交通也帶來了問題，瑞安航空公司的乘客最喧鬧。”Various onsen, Japan
日本的花樣溫泉Many tourists who travel to Japan do so to experience the glorious onsen – natural hot springs – and sento – community bathhouses. Most of these visitors are let in, no questions asked. However, if you happen to have a tattoo, it’s a different story. A survey released in 2015 by the Japan Tourism Agency (JTA) found that well over half of all onsen banned tattooed guests, or required them to cover up their ink. Tattoos are still something of a taboo in Japan, inextricably linked in people’s minds with Yakuza mobsters. But with the influx of tourists in the last 10 years, many of whom are from cultures where skin art is embraced, this antiquated rule has become increasingly problematic.
許多遊客去日本就是爲了體驗一把天然溫泉和錢湯（社區澡堂）。這些遊客不用接受詢問就能直接進入。然而，如果你有紋身的話，那就另當別論了，日本旅遊局2015年公佈的一項調查發現，遠超半數的溫泉禁止帶有紋身的顧客入內，或者要求他們把紋身遮住。紋身在日本依然是一種禁忌，人們總能把它和日本黑幫聯繫起來。但是隨着過去10年裏遊客的大批涌入，很多遊客來自允許紋身的國家，日本的這個老規矩也越來越成問題。Santorini, Greece
希臘聖托裏尼島In 2016, the busiest port in Greece announced that enough was enough – the number of cruise ship visitors would have to be capped. The popular island of Santorini was getting overwhelmed by upwards of 10,000 tourists arriving simultaneously each day on cruises – that number is now capped at 8,000.
2016年，希臘最忙碌的港灣稱遊客人數已經太多，乘坐遊輪的遊客數量必須得到限制。聖托裏尼島是熱門景點，每天有超過1萬人同時乘船抵達，把這裏堵得水泄不通，現在每天的遊客人數上限爲8000。Cinque Terre, Italy
意大利五漁村This beautiful coastal area and UNESCO World Heritage Site was something of a trendsetter when it comes to holding back the tide of tourists. Under increasing pressure from ever-growing visitor numbers, in February 2016 Cinque Terre announced plans to introduce a ticketing system. Once the number of people hit 1.5 million, the area was off limits. This figure might sound high, but the previous summer saw 2.5 million flood into the region to visit its clutch of five quaint fishing villages connected by narrow cliff-top paths.
美麗的五漁村位於濱海地區，是聯合國教科文組織世界遺產地。這裏開創了阻擋遊客潮的新風。面對遊客人數不斷增長的壓力，2016年2月，五漁村宣佈計劃引進新的售票系統。一旦遊客數達到150萬人，就會禁止遊客入內。這個數量聽上去可能很多，但是在2015年夏天，有250萬名遊客涌入這五個由懸崖小徑連接的古雅漁村。Arlington, Texas
德克薩斯阿林頓國家公墓In 2015, private air charter company Stratos Jets analysed over 37,000 geotagged tourist-related tweets from across the States to determine which places were most friendly – and most hostile – towards visitors. Of course, it’s far from scientific, but the results indicated that Arlington, Texas, was the least tourist-friendly destination in the US. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given its stigma for rudeness, New York was the second least welcoming, with Las Vegas swinging into third position.
2015年，私人航空包機公司斯特拉託斯分析了超過3.7萬名來自美國各州標記了地理位置的遊客推文，從而判斷哪些地方對遊客最友好，哪些地方最不友好。當然，這並不科學，但結果表明，德克薩斯的阿林頓國家公墓是美國最不友善的景點。不出意外的是，僅次於阿林頓國家公墓的是紐約，在人們的印象中，這裏對待遊客粗魯無禮。拉斯維加斯下滑至第三。
