[b]Modern day tourism is awful.  You just have mass hordes flocking to a place for selfie photos because they saw nice pictures online.  They often partake very little in the local culture, learn absolutely zero at museums because all they're doing the whole time is taking selfies, and world sites are treated like playgrounds for millions.

So when others go, they are philistines, but when YOU go, with your camera-less learned academic endeavors and erudite strolling encyclopedia you are a vast improvement to the cityscape?

NP. You refuse to believe those who experienced past tourism and can compare it to the current overcrowded situation.

Go now if you want with little Timmy, but we just feel sorry that you are experiencing these places in such an unpleasant environment, and feel extremely lucky we got to go when it was more pleasant.

I feel the same way about music of the 1980s - we were a lucky generation.[/quote]
