Tourists are always a little out of place. Of course, there are the stereotypes of hawaiian shirts and fanny packs, people taking pictures of everything, and sometimes the behavior really can go too far.

Apparently Chinese tourists have such a bad reputation that the government issued a 64-page guidebook on what it would like its citizens to do and not to do while serving as "informal ambassadors" abroad. Some of the highlights include: not asking for pork in Muslim countries, not touching or defacing antiques and ancient architecture, and using the shower curtain while staying in a hotel.

The Chinese aren't the only ones with a bad rep as guests though. The idea of the Ugly American originates from the 1958 satirical book by the same name. It highlights US tourists' propensity for obnoxiousness (eg don't ask for freedom fries in France) and insensitivity towards their host culture.
