What safety matters should I pay attention to when traveling to Xinjiang alone?

1. Pay attention to the cold weather and bring more clothes. In Xinjiang in January, the weather is relatively cold, with the average temperature ranging from -8 degrees to 10 degrees, and there may have been thick snow, so the editor recommends that you take out your thickest winter clothes and prepare a pair of leather jackets. Boots, preferably ones with fleece, are more resistant to the cold. When you get there, you can wear a few thick sweaters and a cotton coat outside. In short, you must do your best to protect yourself from the cold and be sure not to get frostbite. 2. Pay attention to the safety of your belongings. When traveling to Xinjiang, the editor recommends not to travel alone. It is best to invite three or five friends to go together. This is safer and you can think of solutions together when encountering problems. You must also pay attention to the safety of your belongings and don't lose anything.

3. Pay attention to accommodation issues. If you are traveling to larger cities in Tibet, such as Urumqi, Ili and other places, it is easier to find a place to stay, and the types of hotels are also complete. However, if you are traveling to scenic spots , the general accommodation conditions there are relatively difficult, and some even only provide beds for rest and nothing else. Some sparsely populated places don’t even have such a simple place to rest. You can only bring your own tent or don’t spend the night there. Therefore, the editor reminds you that you must be mentally prepared, that is, be prepared to endure hardship.

4. Pay attention to your physical condition. Tibet has a relatively high altitude. It is recommended that you prepare some altitude sickness medicine according to your own situation. For example, it is best to start drinking rhodiola a few days before going. In addition, do not do strenuous exercise there and be careful of hypoxia.
