What do I need to prepare for going west? Get ready before going west.

In fact, there is another problem about Tibet, that is, preparation before departure. Remember what to pay attention to, and then pay attention to what to bring. Xiaobian here is just a personal suggestion, which can be selectively carried. The following are the preparations for traveling on the road.

Prepare to drive by car in Tibet before departure, not the kind of trip that you just leave. People and cars need to be fully prepared.

1. Physical preparation.

Implement a feasible exercise plan, strengthen exercise and improve physical fitness. We start exercising one year in advance, and walk 3-4 kilometers each time, 3-4 days a week. Only when you have a healthy body can you have a smooth sailing.

2. Determine the itinerary.

Referring to the previous self-driving trip to Tibet, Mr. Wang consulted a lot of road information according to the situation of the car, and finally determined our self-driving route-Yunnan-Tibet line to Tibet, Mangkang, National Road 3 18 to Lhasa, and then returned to Kunming from Qinghai-Tibet line via Gansu and Sichuan.

3. Prepare vehicles for entering Tibet.

Because he travels by car, Mr. Wang is responsible for making a lot of preparations for the vehicle. Four tires were replaced two months in advance, and a brand-new full-size spare tire was prepared (the original spare tire size was relatively small), and the routine maintenance and inspection of the car were done two weeks in advance. According to Mr. Wang's list, I bought auto supplies, such as air pumps, brake pads, spare engine oil, filters, tire repair tools, battery wires, tow ropes and so on. Emergency use on an east road.

4. Work before entering Tibet.

Buy vehicle and personnel insurance, prepare ID card, driver's license, driving license, border pass, as well as maps, cameras, electronic equipment, food, medicines, clothes, car items, etc. You can't swipe your card in many places in Tibet. You should bring enough cash before you travel.

5. About the border pass.

Friends who are going to Tibet, especially those who want to go to Ali, Shigatse, Shannan and Linzhi (Medog), need to apply for border passes. Bring your ID card to the local police station or convenience center before you travel, and you can apply for a border pass for free. The procedure is simple, and it will be done in a few minutes. Although you can entrust a travel agency in Lhasa, the procedures are complicated and time-consuming, and you need to pay related fees.

6. Pharmaceutical preparations.

Carry rhodiola, inosine tablets, multivitamins, medicines for treating colds, fever, diarrhea and headaches, and nifedipine for emergency use. Glucose powder, American ginseng, etc. It is used to enhance energy. You can take rhodiola half a month in advance to enhance your resistance and reduce altitude sickness.

7. Food preparation.

Prepare food for 3-4 days before departure, including instant noodles, cakes, drinking water, fruits, etc. , to prevent traffic jams.

8. Autopilot equipment.

Sunglasses, jackets, scarves, hats. Tibet has long sunshine hours and strong ultraviolet rays, so sunglasses are a must-have item; In addition to using sunscreen, it is recommended to choose a hat that can cover your face, or cover your face with a headscarf to prevent your face from being sunburned. The climate in Tibetan areas is changeable, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, so the coat is the best choice for entering Tibet in Spring and Autumn.

Life 1. Coat: The southern line of Sichuan-Tibet line in 10 is not particularly cold. I am wearing an outdoor sports brand, and the style of down jacket must be bright, so as not to blend in with mountains and lakes, and the photos taken are also beautiful.

2. Hiking shoes: I'm wearing a yellow classic that I can't kick, and muddy hillside stones can hold me tight. The most important photo is handsome ~

3. Rhodiola: I bought the same medicinal materials as sawdust to make tea before I left. As a result, after drinking for a few days, red rashes began to appear on my hands and body, and I stopped using them. I ate rhodiola capsules bought by my classmates when I was traveling. I ate one in the morning at high altitude, and there was no serious reaction.

Photography 1. Brought a machine, a mirror, a tripod and some airplane accessories.

2. I took the DJI spirit to fly. I heard that my former flying friends mentioned that I would be inspected when I entered Tibet, and I was afraid all the way. Pro-test, to clarify here, after the Sichuan-Tibet line leaves Sichuan and enters Tibet, there will be an ID check, but it will not open the box to check the drone. My plane followed me from Shanghai to Lhasa and Chengdu, and finally returned to Shanghai without being checked.

Tibet is far safer and more harmonious than I thought, and policemen can be seen everywhere. When shooting passers-by, you can choose telephoto If you think telephoto is too timid to shoot in the street, you can smile before shooting to know the photographer's wishes.
