Matters needing attention in traveling to Britain

The full name of Britain is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which consists of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and is unified by a central government and a head of state. So, what should we pay attention to when traveling to such a country?

Precautions for traveling to Britain: dress guide for British tourists;

The temperature in England in spring and autumn is lower than that in most cities in China. A long trench coat with a cardigan is enough, and the trench coat will look very British. It is cool and comfortable in summer, so you can get proper sun protection and prepare a long-sleeved dress to cope with the weather change. In winter, the temperature is the same as that in the south of China, but it is colder. But in Britain, indoor heating and air conditioning are generally available, so you can wear less clothes inside and thick clothes like down jackets outside.

It is more convenient to wear a jacket if you go outdoors in the Highlands and Lake District of Scotland. Passengers who are interested in watching cultural performances or dining in high-end restaurants are advised to prepare a formal suit.
