⚠ ️Travel Tips
Xinjiang has vast territory with long distances between scenic spots and long driving times. Prepare some snacks, drinking water, and portable entertainment items to alleviate boredom on the road. Also, recommend comfortable and suitable shoes for walking to facilitate scenic spot visits.
Xinjiang has large temperature differences between day and night, and significant climate variations at different altitudes. Even in summer, bring a light jacket. When visiting high-altitude areas like Kanas, Heavenly Lake Tianshan, and the Pamir Plateau, bring thicker clothing to cope with sudden weather changes.
Xinjiang has a dry climate with long sunshine hours and high UV intensity. Prepare sunscreen, sun hats, sunglasses, lip balm, moisturizing skincare products, etc. Also, carry some common medicines like gastrointestinal medicine, motion sickness medicine, cold medicine, and insect repellent for emergencies.
Xinjiang cuisine mainly features beef, mutton, and noodles. Various cities also have different local specialty restaurants. If you have dietary restrictions or special needs, inform staff in advance, and they will try to coordinate with restaurants to meet different tourists’ needs.
Most local places support mobile payments, so no need to carry large amounts of cash. Keep valuables with you or in hotel safes. Follow staff guidance when visiting scenic spots, do not go to undeveloped areas, and ensure your safety.
All scenic spots involved in the itinerary implement a real-name reservation system. Carry valid identification documents and cooperate with staff to complete the entry verification process.
