Matters needing attention in Yunnan tourism in summer vacation

The rainy season in Yunnan is mainly concentrated in July, August and September. There are many and frequent rains in this season, which often cause natural disasters such as floods, mudslides, landslides and rolling stones. This time is the summer vacation, and many families choose this time to go out to play. It is inconvenient to travel in rainy days, especially in mountainous areas. Yunnan is dominated by topography and mountains.

Pay attention to the following questions: 1. Driving conditions. During the rainy season, the road conditions of many highways in Yunnan are very poor, and the construction road conditions have improved a lot in recent years. However, the unpredictability of disasters is high, and the road surface is good, so the road may be washed away or collapsed the next day. If you want to go to some places along the way, please pay attention to the weather forecast before going out and decide your itinerary according to the weather conditions.

2. Prepare rain gear. If you are traveling alone, such as hiking, mountain climbing, cycling or exploring, it is recommended that you take your jacket, rain pants and shoes before you leave. If you are in a travel team of a travel agency, you can usually bring an umbrella. It is worth noting that it is recommended to bring comfortable shoes, preferably professional travel shoes or hiking shoes (waterproof), whether you are helping yourself or joining a group. And prepare more sets of clothes and socks for later use.

3. In rainy season in mountainous areas, pay special attention to avoid low-lying areas, such as valleys, rivers and streams, and avoid the threat of mountain torrents and landslides. In case of thunderstorm, you should immediately go to the nearby low-lying land or dense bushes, and don't hide under tall trees, which is vulnerable to lightning. Besides, don't put metal objects on me. I can find a low-lying place to lie down.

4. In case of bad weather such as fog and strong wind in mountainous areas, you should stop traveling and hide under cliffs or caves until the climate improves. Don't overestimate your physical strength when traveling in the mountains. When you are tired, you should rest in time. Don't rest until you are almost exhausted, because your physical strength is not easy to recover, and you won't get excited if you walk again. The correct way is to take a big step, then relax and walk slowly for a while, or stop to have a rest and adjust your breath. When standing and resting, don't take off your backpack. You can support a wooden stick under your backpack to reduce the load on your body. The temperature in the mountains is generally low, so don't sit on a stone to rest, the stone will quickly absorb the heat from your body.

5. If you take a self-driving car, you should check the performance of the good car in advance to ensure the driver's driving level and learn some methods of self-protection and self-help. If you encounter landslides, mudslides, etc. You should pass carefully and don't try to be brave. Normally, don't take risks. It is best to wait for the rescue of relevant departments to ensure smooth communication.

6, pay attention to prevent colds and diseases: Yunnan elderly have a saying, "eat dry food, tropical clothes", that is, to prepare for unforeseen emergencies. There are only two kinds of weather in Yunnan in summer, one is scorching sun, and the other is cold after rain. Because the rainy season in Yunnan is changeable, sometimes hot and sometimes cold, it is easy to cause colds and other diseases, so we should pay attention to keep warm and prepare the corresponding drugs.

7, sunscreen items. Don't think that there is no possibility of ultraviolet sunburn in rainy season. Because most of the summers here are showers, the weather is sunny and cloudy, and sometimes even Sun Long appears. Traveling in sunny days and light rain requires not only rain protection, but more importantly, it is necessary to prepare for sun protection in advance. Generally, you need to wear a sun hat and sunglasses and apply enough standard sunscreen in advance. Special note: it is best to wear a multi-purpose scarf to protect your neck.

8. Please pay attention to safety when going out for photography, and don't shoot or climb in dangerous areas.
