What should I prepare for a trip to Pingyao?

Preparation before departure: The earlier the preparation before departure, the more complete the better. There are many unexpected and unpredictable variables in self-help travel, but this does not mean completely denying its feasibility, or even rejecting, fearing and avoiding it. As long as you have a correct concept of travel and pay attention to the preparation before departure, you can completely cope with the accidents during the trip. Travel is inherently adventurous. No matter how you travel, you can't guarantee absolute perfection and smoothness. Only when you regard all kinds of unexpected events in your travel as a challenge and a kind of tempering, will you understand self-help travel and its other feelings about the meaning of life after a hard process. First, adjust physical strength In the process of self-help tour, the personal physical condition is often related to the success or failure of the whole trip. Carrying luggage, catching a bus, hitchhiking, driving, shopping, visiting places of interest and arranging accommodation during a trip are all extremely trivial and exhausting things, especially long-distance travel, which is a great test of personal physical strength and endurance. Therefore, in addition to daily maintenance and exercise, travelers should also do physical exercise before going out. While adjusting physical fitness, we should pay more attention to changing eating habits. Paying attention to local diet is the most basic condition for self-help tourists. Before going out, you should draw up a general itinerary and choose a good sightseeing target, so that you can have a direction to follow when you get there. Before choosing the travel target, you should prepare a map of the area in advance, understand the corresponding positions of various scenic spots, decide the order of passing, and then list the accommodation places and surrounding tourist attractions according to the number of travel days. Second, collecting information Before collecting information, you must first determine your travel purpose and personal interests and collect it purposefully. What you need first is a local map. It is best to mark the place names in the original text, and you should have the least railway and highway routes. Then, according to your own travel route order, list the accommodation points first. If you don't have a detailed address, you should also know which area you want to live in and which direction this area is in. Then record the original texts of all the scenic spots to be visited in a small book. If possible, briefly list the historical background, shape and characteristics of each scenic spot below the original text. Then pick up the information of the second stop, and so on until all the trips are sorted in the notebook. Third, the use of transportation: the most important thing to choose transportation is to consider safety issues, followed by the conditions suitable for you and the convenience of matching the itinerary. So the available means of transportation are planes, ships, trains, buses, self-driving, motorcycles, bicycles, hiking and so on. In fact, no matter which way you use, as long as you agree with the way you choose to travel, know the advantages and disadvantages of the means of transportation you use, be mentally prepared and face the difficulties you may face during the journey. Making use of the existing local means of transportation is the most basic method of self-help travel. In areas with developed railways, trains should be the mainstay, and in areas where railways cannot reach, local buses should be supplemented. In areas dominated by road transportation, road traffic should be given priority to. Fourth, prepare luggage equipment luggage equipment is the most important part of self-help tour, and the luggage carried by self-help tour should be simple, practical, strong and convenient. In order to avoid dragging your feet, it is best to bring only one backpack. If you bring an extra piece of luggage when you travel, you will naturally put it down when you stop, such as buying tickets, shopping, waiting for the bus, changing money and staying in a hotel. At this time, if someone has ulterior motives, these bags will become the first choice. In addition, during rush hours such as catching a bus, getting on and off the bus, the probability of luggage loss is particularly high. Luggage determines the items to be carried, which are prepared according to the region, season and climate to be visited, and everything is based on the principle of simplicity. When packing luggage, you should remember to classify the things you carry, separate the commonly used things from those you don't use, and form the good habit of putting them back after use, so as to avoid fishing in your luggage every time and getting nothing every day. 5.

The following dress taboos: 1, the coat can not be windproof, waterproof and wear-resistant; 2, take a lot of sweaters to cold places (sweaters in the wild are useless at all, no wind takes up space, wet as iron, and dust absorption is its specialty); 3. Wear cotton or other underwear with poor perspiration; 4. Don't wear hats or warm hats in cold places; 5. Wear shoes with soft soles and low tops; 6.
