Since not all of us can
travel the whole world,
Fact Point has brought
the entire world to you.
In this very interesting video,
we will tell you about different
cultures from different societies,
which you may find even shocking.
So let's get started.
Number one, Croatia(克罗地亚),
Croatia is popular for its national parks,
beaches,
and of all the things.
The coastal country is also famous
for its Game of Throne appeal.
But if you are traveling in
the Eastern European country,
depending on where you are from,
it might shock you.
When you learn that if
you plan to stay there,
it is expected from you to clean,
not only your own house,
but all also the street outside of your house.
There is a reason why the country is famous for its
clean streets and communal civil pride.
Croatia is not exception,
countries like Spain too have similar culture,
number two.
I don't want coffee.
Wait.
Now I want.
In Ireland,
it is considered rude to accept any
food item from the host the first time it is being offered by them,
even if you are being offered a mouth-watering treat,
pretend to decline the offer.
You will be asked once again.
And this time it's absolutely okay to accept it.
It might sound a weird practice,
especially if you are from country like US
where a "no" would mean a no and
agreeing the other time might make you
come off as a weird, fluctuating(反复无常的) person.
Number three,
the country with no traffic rules.
Food is not the only thing Lebanon(黎巴嫩) is famous for.
Talk to any traveler who have been to the Lebanese republic.
They would tell you that there is
virtually no traffic rules at all
in the Middle Eastern country,
even if there's seem to be traffic rules,
everyone is speeding around you
and the rules are not enforced at all.
Needless to say,
there are countless accidents every day on the roads of Lebanon.
Number four,
tolerance towards public drunkenness.
If you are a Brit or familiar with streets of Britain,
you probably know that public drinking is
taken casually and considered normal there.
But the attitude towards public drunkenness
when compared to Europe
is totally different in the States.
So much so that asking for beer in a restaurant might invite stares
and a lecture on.
"Sir, this is a family restaurant."
Number five, nap time in Spain
when you visit Spain as a tourist
roaming in the Spanish street in the afternoon
would make you realize that
you are probably alone and nobody is around with all the shops closed
This time after the midday meal till 4:00 pm is also
called siesta time(午休时刻) in Spain.
And in these early hours of afternoon,
you would probably find no one in streets or in the shops,
except for probably yourself.
