What do I need to prepare for going to the northwest? Prepare for a trip to the northwest

When traveling to the northwest, some things must be fully prepared. The following small series will introduce the necessary things for traveling to the northwest. You can go with Bian Xiao and see what you must remember to bring.

: essential items

1. ID card: If you don't have an ID card, you can go to temporary id card. If you don't have an ID card, you can go to the hukou book.

2. Other documents: tourist guide card, student card, military officer card, disability card, old-age card and other documents that may reduce or exempt tickets. Remember to bring real documents, not fake ones.

3. Sun protection: ultraviolet rays are strong in plateau areas. Sunscreen should be ready. You can bring some masks and a sun umbrella, which is more useful.

4. Sunglasses: Sunglasses are also necessary. Dark glasses must be used in places like desert Gobi Salt Lake, and it is best to take pictures in a concave shape.

5. Skirt: Bring colorful skirts, clothes and shoes, so that the photos taken will look good. I suggest you bring a solid color.

6. shawl or scarf: when it is cold, bring a colorful shawl to keep warm. It can be used as a scarf or headscarf, and it can also be used as a prop when taking pictures. When sitting in the front row, you can block your legs from the sun.

7. coat: if you go to the northwest in June, you can bring a coat or other coats. I suggest you wear a hat. Sometimes the wind is stronger, which is more useful.

8. Medicines: commonly used personal medicines, cold medicines, gastrointestinal medicines, carsickness medicines, painkillers, glucose (powder or oral liquid), band-AIDS, wind oil, Gao Yuan 'an and anti-hyperalgesia medicines.

altitude stress

1. The best altitude for traveling to Qinghai is about 3,800 meters, and others are 2,500-3,000 meters. The car crossing Pan-Asia is also more than 3000 meters above sea level. The overall altitude is not very high, and the altitude of Gansu is about 1000 meters. Therefore, a slightly higher response is also a natural response of the human body to adapt to the environment. Don't be too alarmed and nervous, which will make your body more uncomfortable.

2. Symptoms: headache, insomnia, dreaminess, deep breathing, increased frequency and tachycardia. The incidence of altitude sickness is higher in the elderly, young people, women and men, and obese men.

3. Prevention: Before entering the plateau, understand the climatic characteristics of the plateau. The response of the Australian dollar is to eliminate the fear of plateau scenic spots. Pay attention to rest before departure and adjust your body to the best condition. At first, you should rest more, drink more water, eat more fruits and supplement vitamins. You can also drink Rhodiola oral liquid in advance to eliminate hyperreflexia.

: What should I pay attention to?

1. You can't stay alone on the grass beach after dark. There is no habit of tying dogs in the local area, so we should pay attention to the herdsmen's homes;

2. Don't walk around the grassland, many places are swamps, and don't venture near the lake;

Qinghai Lake is a sacred lake for Tibetans. The temperature of this lake is very low. Don't swim in the lake, you'll catch a cold.

4. Qinghai Lake and Chaka Salt Lake are salty lakes with high salt content, which may cause skin swelling and molting after playing with water.

Whether riding or walking, it is recommended to get up early and leave early. Don't start too late, feel the destination before dark, and don't walk at night;

It's a long way around the lake, but we still have to take the national highway. Many mountain bikes on the national highway are very fast, so you should pay attention to safety, especially for large trucks, and pay attention to hand safety in rainy nights;

7. The grass between expressway and the lakeshore is often surrounded by barbed wire. Generally outsiders are not allowed to enter. If you want to enter, you need the consent of the local people;

8. There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening, so you should add or subtract clothes at any time. Check the weather forecast before you leave. From July to August, there are frequent rainstorms and hail, and the wind is fierce. It is necessary to put on a raincoat. You'd better put on your coat and waterproof shoes.

9. In plateau areas, it is necessary to pay attention to cold protection and high resistance. Once you catch a cold, it is difficult to cure.

: Accommodation along the way (need to know in off-peak season)

1. The economy in the northwest is not developed enough, so the accommodation hardware in many cities, including surrounding scenic spots, is very general. For example, most villages and towns

2. The northwest is vast, and the distance between scenic spots is tens or even hundreds of kilometers, which is normal, and the accommodation places are scattered. It is absolutely necessary to make a good strategy in advance, otherwise it will be more troublesome.

3. Affected by climatic conditions, the tourist season in Northwest China is very obvious. Every year10-April 165438+ tourists seldom come, so many hotels around the scenic spot are closed. It is very necessary to inquire about the hotel business in advance and understand the local climate conditions.

Tips:

From June to September every year, it is generally the peak season for northwest tourism, so accommodation must be prepared in advance.

Northwest diet

Qinghai belongs to the plateau climate, which is relatively dry, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is relatively large, so the diet tastes a bit heavy, mainly salty and spicy.

The local diet is mainly interviews, and cooking is mainly in bed. If you have special requirements on diet, you should tell the hotel in advance that Qinghai beef and mutton are delicious and properly arranged, but you should pay attention when eating. If you eat too much, you will get angry easily. The drinking water in the northwest is hard and rich in minerals. If you are not used to it, it is recommended to buy mineral water.

Eating in the northwest ring every day is still different, so I suggest you prepare some snacks, chocolate and other high-calorie foods, as well as some fruits to supplement vitamins. You must drink more water when the climate is dry.
