Vladivostok's best shopping center

Vladivostok, the first port in Northern Xinjiang, is located in the east of Wusuli River. It is an ice free port and has always been China's territory since ancient times. To be exact, Vladivostok should not be isolated from the areas east of the Wusuli River, including Sakhalin Island. Vladivostok is the administrative center of this area. In 1856, China and Russia signed the Huihui treaty, which stipulated that the area east of the Wusuli River was Sino Russian; Co management;, Vladivostok was also & quot; Co management & quot; It's over! But by 1860, when China and Russia signed the Treaty of Beijing, China and Russia had no choice; Co management & quot; Vladivostok became the territory of tsarist Russia, and was renamed Vladivostok, which is insulting to China

"Junk seafood" is hard to prohibit, "black boat" is very dangerous to see the sea, "self funded project" is a big water tour of Vladivostok, these inside stories can not be unknown

refreshing and pleasant climate, vast and endless sea, different Russian exotic customs, and the historical intersection of "conquering the East" and "outer East and North", Vladivostok has become one of the first choices for many Chinese tourists in summer. Recently, however, the Chinese Consulate General in Fukien city has issued a series of warnings about the local tourism chaos. It turns out that after arriving in this far eastern city, many Chinese tourists find that what is waiting for them is not the delicious food and beautiful scenery, but the deteriorated seafood, the underground "black hotel", the poor service of the tour guide and a nightmare like experience. What happened to this beautiful seaside city? Why such chaos? What do you need to pay attention to when traveling to this place The reporter of Global Times concted an investigation and interview

containers serve as hotels, small fishing boats serve as yachts,

there are thunder everywhere, and there are also chaos everywhere. According to Chen Gang told the global times, the accommodation arrangement for Chinese tourists by many tour groups is "only about the level of a small hotel in a small Chinese county with 20 yuan a night" and "there is nothing in it". He said that the price of these hotels is generally about 200 yuan per room, but a room is crowded with three to six tourists. In comparison, the accommodation standard for Japanese and Korean tourists is about 400 to 500 yuan per person

"the most common room type is" ab suite ", which has two small rooms, three people in each room, and everyone shares a bathroom," Chen Gang said. "Some rooms even don't have a bathroom, and the guests have to wash the sheets and towels themselves." The former informant also told the global times that many of these hotels are even transformed from containers or prefabricated houses, and most of them are very remote

why is such a simple and unimaginable Hotel popular in Fushi and receiving a large number of Chinese tourists? Chen Gang explained that this phenomenon began when the Russian Ruble devalued rapidly in 2014. A large number of Chinese tourists poured into Russia e to the sharp drop in prices, which not only helped Russia's depressed tourism market, but also made it difficult to guarantee the local tourism facilities, especially the obvious shortage of hotels

"some local Chinese noticed this business opportunity, and they soon rented some uncompleted buildings or old houses and decorated them as hotels for external operation," Chen Gang said. "But as for operation, these hotels, like those Chinese restaurants, are" underground hotels "without business license and qualification. Some of them don't even have signboards, let alone go through the formalities required by the Russian government for lodgers. Once the relevant departments organize surprise inspections, it will bring serious legal problems to tourists. "

What's more worrying is that almost all these "underground hotels" do not have the most basic fire-fighting facilities, nor do they have fire warning signs and fire evacuation passageways. In case of fire, the residents will have nowhere to escape. According to the "Global Times" reporter, although the relevant Russian departments sometimes have targeted crackdown actions, but under the influence of corruption within the government and some gray interest chains, similar actions often have little effect, "black hotels" are still developing savagely, and are still receiving a large number of unknown Chinese tourists every day

under such living and eating conditions, the conditions of "walking" and "playing" are not much better. Ms. Zou told the global times that many of the buses used by Chinese tour groups don't even have air conditioning. Sometimes they are old cars that have been eliminated, "air leaks everywhere.". Most of the tour guides do not have a guide card, and some of them can't even speak Russian. In case of an accident, it's difficult to communicate with the Russians“ What's more, some tour guides even ask tourists for kickbacks when they go to public toilets, or deliberately do not remind Russia of the legal provisions such as smoking prohibition, so as to collude with Russian police to fine Chinese tourists. "

for many Chinese tourists who want to take a boat to see the local sea scenery, most of the time, what they are waiting for is not a safe and comfortable yacht, but a "black boat" made of a small tonnage fishing boat. A number of people familiar with the matter confirmed to the global times that these vessels were not equipped with life jackets, lifeguards, qualified protective equipment, and were often overloaded. In front of the sea full of unknown, the risk of falling into the water or even sinking the ship is hard to underestimate

"zero negative tour fee" hidden rules make it more difficult for supervision to crack down on it? In short, it has a lot to do with the spread of "zero tour fee" and "negative tour fee" and other tourism hidden rules in the Chinese market to the surrounding areas, and the intensification of supervision blind areas in foreign countries. A person in the instry told the global times that almost all the local travel agencies in Fushi that undertake domestic "zero negative tour fee" tourists are operated by Chinese

the so-called "negative tour fee", as the name suggests, refers to the mode in which travel agencies only charge the cost price or even lower than the cost price when they accept tour groups, and then earn profits through self paid attractions and shopping rebates or "capitation fee" The Global Times reporter learned from people in the instry that the travel cost of "four days and three nights" from China's border to Fushi is at least 1000 yuan per person. However, in the "hype" advertisements on the Internet, there are a large number of tourism procts with the price of 600 yuan or even lower. There is no doubt that these differences will eventually have to be made up by tourists

in the so-called "Vladivostok entertainment guide" obtained by the reporter, a total of 16 kinds of compulsory self funded projects are outstanding: there are scenic spots with exotic features such as "grand Russian island", "Centennial pedestrian street", and attractive "human body art dance" and "human body feast". The price of each project is about 500 yuan to 600 yuan. However, Ms. Zou told the global times that almost all the self financed scenic spots do not need any tickets, and these so-called performances are of no artistic value. "Some are even underground pornographic performances."

"the 'moisture content' of these self funded projects is more than 80%," Chen Gang revealed, "the key is that tourists simply can't understand the local conditions and customs of Russia or Vladivostok. The so-called "beach" is a beach with nothing; The so-called "amorous Russian island" is the site of the former APEC meeting. "

if the chaos is in China, tourists can also solve it to a certain extent by complaining, calling the police and resorting to the media, but they are facing great difficulties abroad“ Most Chinese tourists can't speak Russian, they can't communicate with the local police at all, and they don't know where to find the supervision department, "Ms. Zou said." so many tour guides dare to lock tourists who don't want to participate in self financed projects in hotels. It's very common to intimidate, abuse and insult them. On the other hand, even if there is a complaint, because it involves cross-border tourism, it is easy for departments in all links to pass the buck to each other, which makes it difficult to pursue responsibility. "

in the face of increasingly serious problems, the Chinese Consulate General in Fu city invited more than 20 tourism practitioners to hold a forum on July 27 to expose the local tourism chaos and ensure the travel safety of Chinese tourists. Previously, the Consulate General had issued six "special reminders" to warn Chinese tourists to beware of "traps"

in sharp contrast to this, the number and changes of Chinese tourists in Fukien City: in 2017, Fukien city received 800000 foreign tourists, of which about half were Chinese“ Although the number of Chinese tourists in Russia's official statistics is still growing, it has actually begun to decline, because the Chinese who have been here usually do not come back. This is an indisputable fact. On the contrary, e to the good service quality, there are more and more Japanese and Korean tourists. " Chen Gang said

"the root of the problem lies in China". This person who is familiar with the situation believes that only through more stringent laws and regulations and law enforcement to regulate the domestic tourism market, can the problem far away in Fushi be alleviated. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen cooperation with Russia, crack down on the local gray interest chain, and let this tourist resort bid farewell to the dark curtain
