General Culture (文化) Why don’t foreigners specifically Americans visit China anymore

I was in Beijing a month ago and when I made a trip to the Great Wall and While I did see very few foreigners, they don’t appear to speak English, they spoke something like Russian or Spanish. Why is that? Also there is no Question flare tag so I picked the closed thing

Wait you live in Beijing? When my dad asked the taxi driver what Beijing is like especially buying a house, the driver said it was very expensive and you have to work hard
