I've traveled to over 40 countries in the past 8 years. The dirtiest country I've traveled to is India. I've traveled to India about 12 times in my life and every time I arrive it is dirtier than the time before. Pollution, smog, open feces from human and animal, vermin, and lots of dust and dirt. Even a relatively clean city like Jaipur has enormous amounts of pigeon defecation.

在过去的8年里，我去过40多个国家。我去过的最肮脏的国家是印度。我一生中去过大约12次印度，每次抵达时它都比上次更脏。污染、烟雾、人和动物的粪便、害虫，还有大量的尘土。即使像斋普尔这样相对干净的城市也有大量的鸽子粪便。

I've been to Nepal, Egypt, Uganda and Vietnam that have some of these problems but none of these countries can compare to India with respect to the amounts of filth.
My advice if you want to travel to India: travel to the smaller cities that tend to have less of these issues. Jaipur is nice, so is Agra. A city like Hyderabad perhaps lies on the dividing line.

我去过尼泊尔、埃及、乌干达和越南，这些国家都有一些类似的问题，但就肮脏程度而言，没有一个国家能和印度相比。
如果你想去印度旅行，我的建议是去一些问题较少的小城市。斋普尔很不错，阿格拉也是。像海得拉巴这样的城市也许处在分界线上。

The country with the 5th largest economy in the world, with more billionaires per square mile than any other country, with the highest illiteracy, and with the highest infant mortality of all 208 (?) countries on the planet - is also by far the dirtiest.
INDIA.
None of the above details are coincidental or unconnected. India is a country of extremes - extreme poverty and deprivation - and extreme wealth concetrated in the hands of the callous few. The priorities of the ruling elite do not extend to improving the environment and the provision of services for the average citizen - let alone for the desperately poor. As a result, 9 of the 10 most polluted cities on the planet are in India (also 15 of the worst 20).

作为世界第五大经济体，每平方英里的亿万富翁比任何其他国家都多，却也是全球208个国家中文盲率最高、婴儿死亡率最高的国家，同时也是迄今为止最肮脏的国家。
上述所有细节都不是巧合或毫无关联的。印度是一个极端的国家——极端的贫困和匮乏，以及少数冷酷人士手中聚集的极端财富。执政精英的优先事项并不包括改善环境和为普通公民提供服务，更别提急需帮助的穷人了。因此，全球十大最污染的城市中有9个在印度（其中20个最糟糕的城市中有15个也在印度）。

Also, India’s Tax system is less redistributive than almost any third world country - let alone any rich western one - despite the huge recent growth in national wealth. In the period when China has pulled 350 million out of poverty, “democratic” India has achieved very little permanent progress whatsoever.
So where does all the money go? …… to the corrupt politicians and callous decadent businessmen, making millions from exploitation of their own poor, while living playboy lifestyles in the US, UK, and Europe ….. and largely - and VISIBLY - voting Left, as a signal of their “virtuous caring”. Don’t believe one word of it !!

此外，尽管印度国家财富最近有了巨大增长，但印度的税收制度比几乎所有第三世界国家都要少有再分配效应，更不用说任何富裕的西方国家了。在中国让3.5亿人摆脱贫困的同时，“民主”的印度却几乎没有取得任何永久性的进步。
那么这些钱都去哪了？……流向那些腐败的政客和冷酷的颓废商人，他们通过剥削自己的穷人在美国、英国和欧洲过着花花公子般的生活……而且大多数情况下明目张胆地支持左翼，以示他们“善良关心”。不要相信其中任何一句话！！

I was quite shocked at first at the rubbish in Thailand. But that was my first time out of Australia.

我第一次离开澳大利亚来到泰国时，看到了让我相当震惊的垃圾场面。但那是我第一次离开澳大利亚。

I should add that when I was really young, in Australia we littered more, and it was probably pretty grotty in most cities and towns. However, when I was about 4 or 5, (1980s) the Keep Australia Beautiful and “Do the right thing put it in the bin” littering campaign came in, along with national “Clean Up Australia Day” once a year, and tidy town awards in most states. Through a process of constant government advertising reprimanding litter bugs, hectoring Australians not to litter and a greater appreciation for our beautiful fragile country and what littering does, and provision of good public bins has meant Australia is far cleaner now than 40 years ago. Public littering is really frowned upon. People still litter, but not nearly as much. One can swim now in any of Melbourne's inner city beaches. Back then it was a bit more dodgy to swim at St Kilda or Port Melbourne. On the outter Peninsula beaches the water is pristine. Same in Sydney. Back in the early 1980s both Bondi and Manly beaches - Sydney's iconic beaches were open sewers after a bad storm - surf ♂️ with a turd . Not now. Both are amazing now, but it took a while…

我应该补充说明，在我很小的时候，澳大利亚的垃圾问题更为严重，大部分城市和小镇都可能非常肮脏。然而，大约在我4或5岁的时候（1980年代），澳大利亚推出了“保持澳大利亚整洁”和“把垃圾扔进垃圾箱是正确的做法”等反垃圾宣传活动，以及全国性的“澳大利亚清洁日”活动，以及各个州市的“整洁城镇奖”。通过不断进行政府广告宣传，谴责乱丢垃圾的行为，敦促澳大利亚人不要乱扔垃圾，并更加珍惜我们美丽而脆弱的国家以及垃圾对环境的影响，再加上提供良好的公共垃圾箱，意味着如今的澳大利亚比40年前干净多了。公共乱丢垃圾现在被严厉谴责。人们仍然会乱扔垃圾，但数量远远不及以前。现在可以在墨尔本市内的任何海滩游泳。而在当时，在圣基尔达或墨尔本港游泳就有些危险。在外围半岛的海滩，水质非常清澈。悉尼也是一样。在20世纪80年代初，邦迪海滩和曼利海滩——悉尼的标志性海滩，经过一场暴风雨后就变成了污水泄漏的海滩——有时还能看到浮在海里的粪便。现在都不会再看到这些了。现在这两个海滩都非常美丽，但这花了一些时间……

I live in London. It's pretty filthy at times - I've gotten used to seeing bags and bags of rubbish beside public bins, and public bins overflowing. Other parts of the UK are cleaner and nicer.
I used to live in Kyiv, Ukraine. There would be bags and bags of rubbish dumped in the beautiful parks that ring the city. It was pretty grotty in parts - once the Soviet unx collapsed it seems they struggled to provide basic city hygiene like this.

我住在伦敦。有时候城市相当肮脏——我已经习惯了在公共垃圾箱旁边看到一大堆垃圾和公共垃圾箱溢满的情景。英国其他地方更加整洁和宜人。
我曾经住在乌克兰的基辅。美丽的环绕城市的公园里会有一大堆一大堆的垃圾被随意丢弃。有些地方相当肮脏——苏联解体后，似乎他们对提供城市基本卫生设施这样的事情感到困难。

I was struck by how clean neighbouring Poland was!
I was quite shocked by Naples and the rubbish every where, and Rome wasn't much better.
Seoul, South Korea - spotless.

我被邻近的波兰的整洁给震惊了！
那不勒斯和罗马的垃圾到处可见，让我相当震惊。
韩国首尔——一尘不染。

Netherlands - very clean. Neighbouring Belgium a bit grottier. I was just in Luxembourg city - spotless. Germany the cities I've been to are quite clean, as is neighbouring Austria, a country I know well.
I was impressed with Kuala Lumpur and Penang with how clean they both were.
All of Northern Europe I've seen - Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania were all quite clean and litter free mostly.

荷兰——非常整洁。邻近的比利时有点肮脏。我刚刚去了卢森堡城——一尘不染。我去过的德国城市也相当整洁，邻近的奥地利也是，我对这个国家很熟悉。
吉隆坡和槟城让我留下了深刻印象，它们都非常干净。
我去过的所有北欧国家——瑞典、丹麦、芬兰、爱沙尼亚、拉脱维亚和立陶宛——大部分都非常整洁，几乎没有垃圾。

Earlier this year I was in South Africa and I noticed Cape Town looked a bit grubbier, dirtier and run-down compared to 10 years ago on my last visit.
Canada - clean and efficient like Australia.
The USA - San Francisco was a tad grotty in parts, Phoenix Arizona was clean.

今年早些时候，我去了南非，我注意到开普敦看起来比我上次访问时的10年前显得有点肮脏、脏乱、破旧。
加拿大——像澳大利亚一样整洁和高效。
美国——旧金山在一些地方有点肮脏，亚利桑那的凤凰城很干净。

I was in Paris of recent and despite all the protests and civil unrest, it seemed quite clean compared to dirty London.
I do remember going to a Med beach near Bandol in Southern France and being shocked at how dirty the beach was. Similarly in Mallorca I remember seeing litter in the sea water. Likewise Malta itself was fairly clean but I noticed the sea water wasn't.

我最近去了巴黎，尽管有各种抗议和社会动荡，但与肮脏的伦敦相比，巴黎似乎相当干净。
我记得去法国南部的班多尔附近的一个地中海海滩，对海滩的肮脏程度感到震惊。同样，在马略卡岛，我记得在海水中看到垃圾。同样在马耳他本身相当整洁，但我注意到海水并不干净。

I was just in Greece, and noticed a bit of rubbish around, especially on the island. Also just in Morocco and not enough bins and too much single use plastic.

我刚到希腊，注意到周围的垃圾有点多，尤其是在岛上。我也刚到摩洛哥，发现垃圾桶不够用，一次性塑料制品太多。

India, by far, but the river in Bangkok, Thailand had the worse stench and massive garbage clogs floating on the water near the city.
In India the rivers near cities where thick with mostly human waste, and dozens of men at a time urinated against walls on busy streets. Children took over sections of city sidewalks and turned them into toilets and flies were everywhere.
In Mexico a few years ago, there masses of white plastic bags that had been dumped filled with trash and winds had blown there plastic bags over desert areas and the caught of plants — really awful looking. I’d never seen that in Mexico before on previous trips. Pasadena to see.

印度的河流情况远远不如曼谷，泰国的河流更糟糕，附近漂浮着刺鼻的恶臭和大量的垃圾堆积。
在印度，城市附近的河流几乎被人类排泄物所污染，许多人同时在繁忙街道上的墙壁上撒尿。孩子们霸占了城市人行道的一些区域，将其变成了厕所，到处都是苍蝇。
几年前在墨西哥，有大量的白色塑料袋被填满垃圾倾倒在那里，风吹过的塑料袋还覆盖了沙漠地带并缠绕在植物上，情况看起来非常可怕。在之前的旅行中我从未在墨西哥看到过这种情况。

The Middle East and sub-Continent. The culture there places a low premium on public spaces. People’s homes will be spotless, but the public areas are a rubbish dump. Israel is proof that it is a cultural thing. Arab cities, towns and villages are like that. Jewish cities and towns where most of the residents are second and third generation of Mizrahi (Middle Eastern background - Parents/grandparents came from Morocco, Egypt, Iraq, Yemen etc.) will have less well kept public areas than cities and towns with a predominantly Ashkenazi (people who either they or their parents/grandparents/great grandparents immigrated from Russia or other European countries, or the anglophonic (US, Commonwealth) world.

中东和次大陆地区的文化对公共空间并不十分重视。人们的家可能一尘不染，但公共区域却成了垃圾场。以色列证明这是一种文化现象。阿拉伯城市、小镇和村庄都是如此。而以色列的城市和小镇，大部分居民是第二代或第三代来自摩洛哥、埃及、伊拉克、也门等中东背景的犹太人，其公共区域比起主要由Ashkenazi（他们或他们的父母/祖父母/曾祖父母移民自俄罗斯或其他欧洲国家，或者英语国家（美国、英联邦）的人群构成的城市与小镇更加整洁。

Even among immigrants from the FSU, those from Russia, Belarus, Ukraine etc treat public areas very differently from those who immigrated from Bukhara and other Muslim areas. As for India, it’s in a class of its own. BTW, despite that, we love it, and will continue to go there until we’ve explored evey part of that amazing wonderfull chaotic unkempt and yes unfortunately dirty and unhygienic country, that is an amazing concert and cacophony thrown into one of noise and color. You other love it or hate it, we love it.

即使在来自独联体的移民中，来自俄罗斯、白俄罗斯、乌克兰等地的人对待公共区域的态度与那些来自布哈拉和其他穆斯林地区的移民有很大不同。至于印度，它是一个独特的存在。顺便说一句，尽管如此，我们热爱印度，将继续前往那里，直到我们探索完这个令人惊奇、美妙、混乱、不整洁，甚至不干净和不卫生的国家的每一个角落，这是一个奇妙的音色交响，充满了噪音和色彩。你要么热爱它，要么讨厌它，我们热爱它。

China was also traditionally a country nor known for its cleanliness. Singapore, a culturally Chinese country implemented draconian legislation and enforcement to get people to change their attitudes, and it worked. China today is less slovenly when it ocmes to public areas than it used to be, as the regime has invested a lot of sticks anbd carrots in chnaging attitudes and behaviour. However it’s no Japan, which is renowned for a culture that places a premium on cleanliness, including the public domain.

中国也传统上不是一个以清洁著称的国家。新加坡，一个在文化上具有中国特色的国家，采取了严格的立法和执法手段来改变人们的态度，而这种做法取得了成功。如今的中国在对待公共区域的整洁方面比过去要好，因为政府投入了大量资源来改变人们的态度和行为。然而，中国并不及日本，后者以其重视清洁的文化而著称，包括对公共领域的重视。

The dirtiest country I ever visited was India.
The streets were filled with garbage and the air was thick with smog.
Everywhere you looked there were piles of trash, and it seemed like no one cared about keeping their environment clean.
Even in some of the more touristy areas, there was a noticeable lack of sanitation standards that made me feel uncomfortable at times.
It's a shame because India is such an amazing place full of culture and history, but its environmental issues are hard to ignore when you're visiting.

我参观过的最脏的国家是印度。 街道上到处都是垃圾，空气中弥漫着浓厚的烟雾。 无论你看到哪里，都会看到一堆堆的垃圾，似乎没有人在乎保持他们的环境清洁。 甚至在一些更多旅游者的地区，都可以明显感觉到卫生标准的缺乏，有时让我感到不适。 这很遗憾，因为印度是一个充满文化和历史的惊人之地，但在参观时很难忽视它的环境问题。

Most of the dirtiest countries are mostly those countries which are densely populated and poor.
Asia - India, Philippines, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Kathmandu and few parts of southern region of Nepal and Pakistan.
Africa - Guinea Bissau, Guinea Conakry, Burkina Faso, Niger, Nigeria, Mali, Liberia, Sierra Leone, Mozambique, Malawi, Uganda, Chad, Central African Republic and others.
South America - Peru, Venezuela and Bolivia.
North America - Honduras, Belize and El Salvador.
But mostly in comparison, Asian countries are dirtier in the world. Especially, slum areas of any countries are more populated and dirtiest.

大部分最肮脏的国家大多是人口密集且贫穷的国家。 亚洲 - 印度、菲律宾、孟加拉国、印度尼西亚、尼泊尔的加德满都和南部地区以及巴基斯坦的一些地区。 非洲 - 几内亚比绍、几内亚、布基纳法索、尼日尔、尼日利亚、马里、利比里亚、塞拉利昂、莫桑比克、马拉维、乌干达、乍得、中非共和国等。 南美洲 - 秘鲁、委内瑞拉和玻利维亚。 北美洲 - 洪都拉斯、伯利兹和萨尔瓦多。 但总的比较而言，亚洲国家在世界上是最肮脏的。特别是任何国家的贫民窟地区更加人口密集和肮脏。

Picture taken from Google, one example of dirty city.
Conclusion - Countries which are highly populated, war ravaged, mostly corrupted, poor literacy, lack of awareness are dirtier than other countries. Thank you for reading.

结论 - 人口众多、饱受战争蹂躏、腐败严重、文化水平低下、缺乏意识的国家比其他国家更脏。感谢您的阅读。

And the oscar goes to …. India.
You have seen the pictures, so I won't be uploading any.
Apart from the few reason mentioned by others, here is my take.
There are many reason but for me the primary reason:- More than a billion people living in denial of the fact that India is dirty, if it wasn't, why come up with campaign like swach bharat?. To find a cure you need to first accept that you are sick.

奥斯卡奖要颁给……印度。
你已经看过照片了，所以我就不上传了。
除了其他人提到的一些原因，这是我的看法。
有很多原因，但对我来说，主要原因是：超过十亿人都在否认印度很脏这个事实，如果不脏的话，为什么要推出"清洁印度"运动呢？要找到治疗方法，首先需要承认自己有病。

It’s not a country, but I still want to mention it. In April, I visited Sicily ( Italy ), and I was so shocked. My first stop was Palermo, and I’ve never seen the dirtiest city. The city center is okay, pretty beautiful, but only a few meters from central streets, you can see lots of garbage. It’s everywhere: some papers, food leftovers, other nasty things.
I was very surprised because I wasn’t expecting something like this. And the smell is also not the best. It’s a pretty poor Italian part, but still, people seem not to even care about it, and for them, it is easier to throw litter in random places and not into garbage bins.

这不是一个国家，但我还是想提一下。今年四月，我去了西西里岛（意大利），我感到非常震惊。我的第一站是巴勒莫，我从未见过如此肮脏的城市。市中心还好，相当美丽，但只要离中心街道几米远，就会看到大量垃圾。随处可见：一些纸张、食物残渣，和其他令人讨厌的东西。 我感到非常惊讶，因为我对此没有任何预期。气味也不太好。这是意大利比较贫困的地区，但人们似乎并不在乎，对他们来说，随手把垃圾丢在任意地方似乎更容易，而不是扔进垃圾箱里

Turkey. The Syrians may have contributed to its filth, but the Turks are filthy in dealing with foreigners and tourists who pay thousands of dollars for a holiday in their country. Going there is a waste of money, nothing special there. You can find many wonderful things there but all of them you can find in other countries. I would prefer to go, perhaps, to Egypt and Spain. The people there are nice and welcoming, and you cannot find any bad dealings with tourists. The beaches are wonderful, and the history in Egypt you cannot find anywhere else in the world.

土耳其。叙利亚人可能会导致土耳其变得肮脏，但土耳其人对待花费数千美元在他们国家度假的外国人和游客的态度也非常肮脏。去那里就是在浪费钱，没有什么特别的地方。你可以在那里找到很多美好的东西，但所有这些你都可以在其他国家找到。我更愿意去埃及和西班牙。那里的人们友好而热情，你不会找到任何对游客不友好的行为。海滩很美丽，在埃及的历史在世界上其他地方都找不到。
