Matters needing attention

1. Because Dunhuang is located in the northwest, close to the desert, the temperature is slightly lower than that in the mainland, and the temperature difference between day and night is large. The highest temperature in summer can reach 38℃, and it may only be 6℃-7℃ at night, so it is inevitable to keep warm, sunscreen and moisturize.

Because the scenic spots are located in the suburbs and scattered, passengers need to prepare food and be mentally prepared. It is suggested to prepare some entertainment equipment, such as game machines, poker and so on.

Many tourists will feel uncomfortable because of the climate and long distance, so it is suggested to prepare some medicines for standby.
