we have this town just north called Solvang, its basically a recreation of a dutch/scandinavian village and its popular tourist trap for americans.

what's strange is that you see a lot of japanese and chinese tourists there while they are touring America.

so they are tourists to america acting like american tourists in america

its touristception

i'm not complaining, i just think its a funny observation.

I always find it weird when I see tourists in my city, because even though we're a state capitol we are decidedly NOT a tourist destination. Once you've seen the capitol building that's basically it. But when I do see tourists, they stick out

I dunno it makes sense. A tourist is a tourist. Regardless of where they're from, they probably search "things to do in (City)" and that's what pops up.

The oddest one I ever had was meeting a Swiss family that had come to the United States to travel down Route 66.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

That's actually very common. There's the Route 66 song, the 60's TV show and all kinds movie stuff. Route 66 is still famous for some in Europe and in Japan.
