Xiangyang Culture and Tourism Bureau issued safety tips for summer tourism in flood season.

Xiangyang has a vast territory and is rich in natural and human resources, but many tourist resources have not been formally developed, especially in mountainous areas such as Nanzhang County, Baokang County and Gucheng County, which are not qualified to receive tourists. The flood season and summer vacation in 2022 have arrived, and the travel of citizens and tourists has increased. In order to effectively protect people's lives and property and effectively protect the ecological environment and natural resources, Xiangyang Culture and Tourism Bureau issued safety tips to tourists:

When visiting the scenic spot, pay attention to the safety warning signs in the scenic spot and don't stay in the geological disaster-prone areas. When encountering risks such as thunderstorm, heavy rainfall, strong wind, mountain torrents and geological disasters, I will obey the arrangement of the staff and not participate in rafting, diving, swimming, cruise and other projects. When participating in wading activities, you should listen to the guidance of professionals, pay attention to safety tips and warnings, strictly abide by safety management regulations, and carefully participate in high-risk tourism projects.

Choose a regular travel agency to travel in groups.

To participate in a group tour of a travel agency, you should sign a written travel contract, read the terms of the contract carefully, and buy travel accident insurance according to your actual situation.

Pay attention to tourist traffic safety.

Be sure to choose a regular tourist bus or a chartered bus with formal qualifications. Don't carry inflammable and explosive articles on the bus, and don't take private passengers and buses without operating qualifications. Don't explore in no man's land or high-risk areas when you go to road trip. Visitors are not allowed to drive their own vehicles in fatigue and speeding. In case of sharp bends, steep slopes, water cliffs, village roads and sections at risk of geological disasters, please drive carefully, and don't overtake or pass by force. When driving, you consciously don't answer the phone. In case of traffic jam, please wait patiently and pass in turn.

Be vigilant to prevent drowning accidents.

Visitors should pay attention to safety tips and warnings when playing in the wading area of the scenic spot to prevent accidental drowning, and consciously do not swim in the rivers of lakes and reservoirs without permission. Participate in water sports such as rafting and cruise ships, strictly abide by safety management regulations, and be sure to wear life jackets. In case of sudden danger, use wisdom to rescue, and tourists who are not familiar with water are not allowed to go into the water to rescue.

Scientifically choose tourism projects suitable for their own conditions.

According to their own health conditions, tourists carefully participate in large-scale amusement facilities and high-risk amusement projects such as glass suspension bridges, plank roads, slides and observation decks. Don't laugh and play in amusement places, and don't do illegal acts. Do not go to undeveloped areas and open to the outside to play and explore without authorization to prevent accidents.

Consciously implement epidemic prevention and control measures

When traveling abroad, epidemic prevention and control should not be relaxed. Personal protection should be done carefully, body temperature should be measured consciously, "Health Code" should be presented, and "wear a mask, wash hands frequently, do not get together and use chopsticks" as required. Pay close attention to the released epidemic prevention and control information in time, and consciously do not go to areas with high epidemic incidence. Tourists visiting our city should know the situation of scenic spots and epidemic prevention requirements in advance through various channels such as instant messaging tools, mobile phone clients, official website in scenic spots and telephone reservations. During the tour, please take the initiative to show your valid "health code", travel itinerary and valid health certificate, and cooperate with the staff of the scenic spot to do necessary prevention and control measures such as temperature registration, and do a good job in personal safety protection throughout the tour. Various diseases are prone to occur in summer flood season, so pay attention to food hygiene and prepare commonly used drugs with you.

Make the whole journey civilized.

Tourists should abide by the civilized behavior norms such as the Convention on Civilized Behavior of Domestic Tourism of China Citizens, start from themselves, consciously abide by public order and social morality, and respect local customs and habits. In the process of tourism, we should cherish tourism resources and protect the ecological environment. It is forbidden to throw things casually when taking the means of transportation, and don't scribble when visiting scenic spots. We should always maintain a good image and be civilized tourists.
