    Asian tourists are almost invisible on how unobnoxious they are.

    Depends. Those big tourist groups are definitely an issue when the streets are already cramped without tourists and you have places to be.

      From Barcelona. they only shop up on line a handful of corners, seems like they get off the bus on the Sagrada Familia or other simpler spots, take their picture and go back to the bus. I didn’t specify which eat Asians, because never gotten too close and no one complains about them.

        I’ve been to Barcelona, didn’t seem like a particularly cramped city. When I lived in a cramped, touristy city, my university was one of the attractions and right in the middle of the city center.

          they do have a lot of policies to not overdo tourism and become a theme park. like banning airbnb or adding a tax on hotels for tourists…

          it does help
