✨ Practical Travel Tips
The Kanas region experiences significant temperature variations between day and night. Even during summer travel, it is advisable to carry a fleece jacket or thin down jacket. For autumn travel, a thick down jacket is recommended. When ascending to Guanyu Platform, where wind speeds are higher at the summit, items such as hats and windproof jackets can be prepared
The UV intensity inside the scenic area is high, so it is advisable to carry sun protection items such as sunglasses, sun hats, and sunscreen with SPF50+ or higher
Signal stability is inconsistent in some areas inside the scenic area, so carrying a small amount of cash as a backup is advisable for convenience when shopping at some small stores
Xinjiang covers a vast area, and single-day driving times during custom vehicle itineraries are relatively long. Items such as neck pillows, portable snacks, and drinking water can be prepared to enhance travel comfort
During the tour, please abide by the relevant regulations of the scenic area, respect the customs and habits of various ethnic groups, obtain consent from others before taking photos, and do not deviate from the boardwalk during hiking to avoid risks such as getting lost
Catering prices inside the scenic area are relatively higher than those in urban areas. A reference price for a plate of pilaf is around 45 yuan. Alternatively, you can prepare naan, fruits, drinking water, and other items to carry with you. Outside the scenic area, in the Jiadengyu region, there are many snack stores. Freshly baked baked buns paired with salty milk tea can replenish the energy needed for a morning of touring.
