Good to know

  1. The climate in most parts of Xinjiang is dry. To enhance your resistance, you should increase your intake of vegetables and fruits. Avoid eating mutton excessively. It is recommended to drink more water and eat fruits in small, frequent meals. In addition, please bring your own common medicines to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort.
  2. Many places in Xinjiang are Muslim communities of various ethnic groups. When dining in any halal restaurant, be careful not to bring in non-beef or mutton food, do not drink alcohol, and try not to waste food.
  3. The distance between cities is long, and the scenic spots are scattered. Therefore, the driving time is long. Please be prepared to endure hardship, prepare motion sickness medicine, and most of the tourist vehicles are fully enclosed.
  4. Xinjiang is relatively dry, so please pay attention to replenishing water at any time and drink more water. The ultraviolet rays are strong, please prepare masks, sunscreen, sunglasses and other items. In summer, you should also be equipped with medicines or granules for clearing heat and preventing heatstroke, such as Xia Sang Ju granules, Ten Drops Water, etc.
  5. When traveling in Xinjiang, you need to get off the bus to experience walking in some scenic spots. Therefore, it is recommended that you prepare a pair of comfortable, fit, and easy-to-walk shoes, preferably flat shoes, before departure.
  6. If you visit a Muslim family, do not enter the kitchen without permission. The Muslim kitchen generally does not welcome non-Muslims to visit, and do not enter the host's, especially the hostess's, room. Do not touch religious objects.
  7. There is a large temperature difference between day and night in Xinjiang. You need to add clothes in the morning and evening to avoid physical discomfort.
