set of tourist guideline in order to improve tourists' behavior when they travel abroad. Although the
64-page handbook contains suggestions for Chinese tourists when traveling at home, the main
purpose is to improve the poor reputation（声誉）of Chinese tourists abroad.

2012, according to the China Tourism Academy. But even as they travel farther, the Chinese
tourists continue to take bad habits with them. From damaging ancient Egyptian temples to letting
children defecate（排便）in the middle of airports, Chinese tourists have earned a bad fame. Chinese Vice-Premier Wang Yang even stressed the need for Chinese tourists to behave better
while traveling overseas so as to protect China's image abroad.
Now with the latest \

at tourist attractions. When flying, the guidelines advise travelers not to take life vests（救生衣）
away from airplanes.
