    Used to be "Do you know anyone from Neighbours?" Which was made equally weird because I did.

    "Do you have a pet Kangaroo?"

    "I didn't think there were cities in Australia."

    I hear in Austria the Chinese tourists ask where the kangaroos are. Lol.
    Spoiler!

    Tourists from Japan in Cologne 10m in front of the Cologne Cathedral: "Take please foto with my camera from me and whole Dome Cathedral."
    Wich means a foto of the whole cathedral (157m) and themselves. (= impossible)

    Where is the Oktoberfest? (We are in Cologne, Oktoberfest is in Munich)

    Do you like Louis Vuitton? How old are you? (Tourist from Japan vs. me standing in front of the LV-shop near Cologne Cathedral some years ago.)

    I think east asian tourists/people are the most uneducated.
    When i was on my China trip, many people called me "Arab" or "Pakistani" and even sometimes "Uighur" because of i keep beard and long hair and i'm just a typical south european and balkan male.

    Our interpruter told us "Chinese people are usually very uneducated, they think every european are very tall, blond, blue eyed and evey people with dark hair and with long facial hair are arab, pakistani, uighur, muslim, terrorist, dirty and bad people".It's strange, i heard the same thing when i was in Japan.I heard that blond, blue eyed people are good, christian, angel, beautiful and the other hand dark haired with facial hair are bad, thief, poor, terrorist, dirty.

    My favorite:
    When you left Cyrillic for the Latin script?

    American tourists usually name the Charles Bridge at Prague a "St. Charles Bridge",

    and mistake baroque-style (Roman Catholic) churches

    for Byzantine-style Orthodox churches, here.

    I was on the plane to my hometown and nowadays, we have many Arab turists. We were sitting next to each other and talked a bit in English. She was sweet for sure. After a bit silence she asked:

    Are you muslim?

    I was just a little shocked when she asked that, I don't know what she thought, but she looked so confused and I couldn't handle her face at that moment and just laughed.
