7 Things You Should Never Do In China
| September 17, 2015
Show the Bottom of Your Feet
It’s been a long day wandering the beautiful markets full of carvings, spices, miniature Chinese charms and framed traditional proverbs. You’re exhausted and pop your feet up on a table at a local bar. Immediately, you sense eyes on you as the bartender stares sullenly with a look of disapproval. Showing the bottom of your feet and placing your feet on objects other than the ground is disrespectful and can quickly get you kicked out of an establishment. People tend to walk more in China and thus shoes get dirtier. Always take off your shoes when entering a home and if you’re going to cross your legs, be sure that your shoes are off first. No one wants to look at your filthy soles.
