1. Green pear wine in Tibetan areas of Qinghai is quite intoxicating. It is advisable to drink two-thirds of your usual amount of ordinary liquor.

2. Foods such as butter tea in Tibetan areas are not suitable for the stomach of mainlanders and should not be eaten in large quantities. There is a local custom of refilling empty butter tea bowls when entertaining guests. Therefore, it is recommended to keep the bowl two-thirds full of butter tea. This will not hurt the feelings of Tibetans and protect themselves. It is recommended to bring antidiarrheal medicine such as berberine.

3. Many places in Qinghai are inhabited by Muslims of all ethnic groups. When dining in any halal restaurant, be careful not to bring in non-beef and mutton food, do not drink alcohol, and try not to waste food. The Muslim concept of halal is by no means just about abstaining from pork, but there are many taboos, so be careful before clarifying them to avoid hurting religious feelings.

4. Except for Xining and Hehuang areas, most areas in Qinghai are plateau desert areas. Self-drivers should drive carefully, rent a car or take a ride, and try to choose a car in good condition and with a stable and experienced driver. . If you are traveling during the rainy season, traffic along the route may be temporarily interrupted due to landslides. Please pay attention to weather and road conditions when setting off.

5. It is recommended that travelers entering plateau areas take some measures to prevent altitude sickness. Take "Rhodiola" appropriately or drink plenty of water. Do not walk or run quickly when you first arrive at the plateau. Avoid overeating and try not to smoke or drink.

6. Sun hat, sunglasses, lipstick, long-sleeved clothes and pants, and sunscreen are the necessities for entering the plateau

I personally think that the scenery in the northwest is very unique, especially the wind and sand. It is recommended that girls buy a silk scarf. The gourmet night markets in Northwest China are unique. Friends who like the scenery and environment there can go and check it out.
