Selfie sticks are one of the latest inventions that are extremely loved by young people. However, not everywhere you can use this convenient photography tool.
Disney World
Disney World – the entertainment center known as the happiest place on earth – has issued a ban on taking selfies at the bullet train area. The reason given by the Management Board is to ensure the safety of its customers.
It can be said that although this is quite a pity for fans of “selfie sticks”, I think it is quite reasonable. To demonstrate the serious implementation of this ban, a high-speed train had to stop when the management staff discovered a passenger using a selfie stick.
At many museums around the world

Stadium
Many people believe that banning selfie sticks at large stadiums is not unreasonable because sports lovers are really easily excited when standing in front of their favorite team.

O2 Stadium, London, England
Wembley Stadium, London, England

Syney Opera House
Recently, the Australian government issued a ban on selfie sticks at Syney Opera House. This is considered a symbol of Australia and was the most photographed location in the country in 2014. A theater spokesman confirmed that taking photos during the performance will be completely prohibited. However, visitors can take selfies outside or in the lobby in front of the building.
Some historical sites
Recently, the case of two tourists who were engrossed in taking selfies and accidentally broke a priceless statue in Italy has raised concerns about the downside of selfie sticks. Although it brings many benefits to people who love to travel, this item is quite “dangerous” because of its bulkiness.
The Ancient Colosseum in Rome and the Palace of Versailles, Paris are historical sites that take the lead in banning visitors from using selfie sticks to avoid affecting the structure. Besides, there are also many historical sites that have banned selfies to absolutely protect cultural heritage.
Korea
Perhaps Korea is the strictest country in the above incident, when last year, the Korean broadcasting authority issued instructions on the sale of selfie sticks that use bluetooth technology to activate the camera. photo, accordingly, those who use and sell unregistered selfie sticks will be fined or even imprisoned. The fine can be equivalent to 27,000 USD (nearly 600 million VND). The reason given is that the country’s government is concerned that the Bluetooth technology of the camera support device will cause disturbances to police security devices.
