What should I pay attention to when traveling to Southeast Asia?

At present, most of the popular tourist attractions are in Southeast Asia. Here are some tourist precautions for Southeast Asian countries. Pay attention when you go. In fact, the most important thing to pay attention to is the flow problem.

Southeast Asia's tourism climate is mostly in the south of the Tropic of Cancer, near the equator, with low latitude, summer-like seasons and hot all year round. The northern Indochina Peninsula and the northern Philippines have tropical monsoon climate, with annual rainfall exceeding 1500mm. Near the equator, most parts of the Malay Archipelago belong to the tropical rain forest climate, which is rainy all year round. When it is not dry, the annual rainfall is more than 2000 mm. The annual temperature is

Between 25 and 30℃. A year in most areas is divided into dry season and rainy season. Generally, the dry season is June-May and the rainy season is June-June.

Necessary items in daily necessities in Southeast Asia: light and casual summer clothes. T-shirts and undershirts are appropriate. Female guests must wear shorts or slacks to meet the needs of entertainment activities. Prepare a thin coat. As the air conditioning in the room or car is quite adequate, you should take a thin coat for emergencies. It is possible to go to the island by boat and participate in water sports. You need sandals or slippers that can swim in the water.

Sunscreen products: The sun in Southeast Asia is more sunny. In order to protect the skin, prepare sun hat, umbrella, sunglasses, sunscreen (oil) and so on.

Enough film and batteries. Buying enough in China is economical and does not delay the time of sightseeing. Most Southeast Asian countries use British standard sockets, but there are some exceptions. It is best to prepare a multifunctional conversion socket.

Certificate: Passport is the only valid identification abroad, and the loss of passport will directly affect travel.

Southeast Asian currency and hotel paper money

Renminbi can't circulate freely in Southeast Asian countries. According to the regulations of China Customs, each person can take $5,000, or equivalent foreign currency, or 20,000 RMB when going abroad for personal reasons. In countries where RMB credit card business has been opened, UnionPay can be used for credit card settlement.

For marked bank cards, the exchange rate directly converts RMB into local currency according to the foreign exchange rate announced by the state on that day.

Southeast Asian national hotel

It is customary not to provide dental appliances and slippers. There is no hot water supply in the room. Some hotels have PAYTV "Pay TV", please know the payment method before using it.

Southeast Asian cultural customs Singapore: Try not to smoke. When smoking in a place where smoking is allowed, ask other people present if it is allowed. Only 19 cigarettes are allowed to enter Singapore. In case of random inspection by the customs, the confiscation of excess cigarettes will bear the responsibility.

Malaysia: Malaysia is a Muslim country. To enter a Muslim church, you must take off your shoes, and ladies must wear black veil at the door to enter. Washing hands before and after meals is Malay table manners. Malays are forbidden to touch their heads and backs with their hands.

Thailand: Respect Buddhism. The temple is a sacred place recognized by the Thai people, so anyone who enters the temple must be dignified and tidy. You can wear shoes in the temple, but you must take off your shoes when you enter the Buddhist temple. Be careful not to step on the threshold. Every Buddha statue is sacred, and you must never make disrespect for it. When talking with Thais, don't say disrespectful words to the Buddha and the king. Avoid wearing shorts, short skirts, naked clothes and slippers when visiting churches and temples.

Indonesia: Indonesians are forbidden to pass things or food with their left hands. It is taboo for someone to touch a child's head, which is considered to be ill-bred. Talking with Indonesians should avoid political, religious and other topics.

Cambodia: Cambodians think that the left hand is unclean and it is impolite to take things or food with the left hand. They also think that the head is a sacred part of people, so others can't touch their heads.

Pay attention to traffic safety in Southeast Asia. Pedestrians and vehicles in Southeast Asian countries and regions (Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Macao) drive on the left, which is contrary to our country. Therefore, the car is the right rudder, while the passengers.

When people get off at the left door, domestic travelers need to remind themselves at all times to prevent habitual actions from hurting themselves.

Know the local emergency telephone number (alarm telephone number) and carry the hotel card (with the name, address and telephone number of the hotel on it) in case of language barrier or emergency.

I have told you some things to pay attention to when going to Southeast Asia. Southeast Asian countries are very hot. If you don't like the sun, you'd better avoid the hottest time. Southeast Asian countries also have some taboos and customs, so you must pay attention to them.

Southeast Asian islands recommend Koh Samui.

Best travel time: 165438+ 10-April of the following year.

The popularity of Koh Samui has risen rapidly recently, and the crowded situation in Phuket has discouraged many tourists who want to spend a quiet holiday. There are not many recreational facilities on Koh Samui, which is suitable for lying quietly on the beach and watching the waves.

Resorts and hotels in Koh Samui are very popular with tourists, and people can enjoy their holidays as soon as they enter the door. The most famous is the W Hotel, which is the first choice for many newlyweds.

In addition, around Koh Samui is the most suitable place for diving in Thailand, and divers can also enjoy the underwater scenery here. Party lovers must not miss the craziest "full moon party" here. In a word, Koh Samui will delight every nerve of tourists.

Landa i.

Best travel time: 165438+ 10-April of the following year.

Although the sea water in Phuket is not so clear, it must be said that the outlying islands around Phuket are still outstanding among many islands in Thailand, such as Randa Island.

To be exact, Landa Island belongs to Krabi, Thailand, not far from Phuket. After seeing the beautiful scenery of Phuket and Phi Phi Phi Island, visitors to Landau can't help sighing its beauty. In addition to few people and excellent scenery, it is also very suitable for snorkeling and diving, and you can see an underwater world that has not been disturbed too much.

If you are not afraid of trouble, Bailey Island in southern Thailand is a remote and beautiful island, which can completely rival the sea view of Maldives, and the price is relatively close to the people, but the traffic will be chaotic.
