Traveling is a pleasure to relax and unwind, but there are also some risks that should not be overlooked.
The incident happened on a tree in the Izhen Volcano Scenic Area in Indonesia. Due to its unique location on the edge of a volcanic sulfuric acid lake, this tree has become a popular photo spot for countless tourists.
On April 20, a Chinese female tourist accidentally slipped and fell into the sulfuric acid lake while taking pictures on a tree. This shocking accident not only makes people regret, but also triggers deep thinking about tourism safety.
There is no doubt that the beautiful scenery is a great pleasure during the journey, but there are often some hidden risks behind it. Inappropriate sightseeing and neglect of danger can cast a painful shadow over a good journey.
Those who witnessed it recalled that the tour guide had clearly warned against approaching the treacherous area.
Although many people have come here to "adventure" to take photos before, there is always a price to take. A netizen said that she had also been to this place back then, and although the scenery was beautiful, she still felt frightened.
If you look closely, you can also find that similar travel safety incidents are not uncommon.
Tourism is undoubtedly a form of relaxation, but it should still be based on the premise of safety. Rather than holding accountable and morally bound after the fact, it is better to remember the old saying: "Safety is no small matter, and hidden dangers are no small flaws".
There is a view that in today's era of tourism folklore, some tourism practitioners deliberately create some scenic spots with potential safety hazards in order to earn the dividends of "Internet celebrity economy". In this regard, the relevant departments should strengthen supervision, crack down on such violations of laws and regulations, and safeguard the rights and interests of tourists.
At the same time, tourists themselves should always be self-respecting.
After all, a trip is not only exchanged for the beauty of lingering, but also the gloom of the future. Guides and companions also play an important role in this matter.
A qualified and conscientious tour guide should be the first to detect and dissuade tourists from danger, rather than letting it go unchecked or resigned to the whims. However, even if they are dissuaded, the tour guide has the right to refuse to continue to provide services to avoid becoming complicit in the harm.
In addition to the guide, other tourists traveling with you cannot sit idly by. Since we are traveling in a team, we should establish a collective sense of safety, remind each other of constraints, and take responsibility for each other's safety together.
All accidents are caused by a combination of factors, and it is one-sided to blame individuals or companies alone.
Needless to say, tourism is an important part of spiritual life. However, as the so-called "think twice", we should carefully weigh our every move with the highest respect for life in order to ensure the completion and tranquility of the journey.
