Tips for Lijiang Tourism

1. Lijiang is located in the latitude plateau with strong solar radiation, so it is necessary to prepare sunscreen products.

2. The drinking water in Lijiang is mostly melted ice and snow, which is cold. Tourists should not follow the locals to drink roadside mountain springs directly. They should drink boiled water or bottled water.

Banna travel tips

1, in order to prevent mosquitoes and strong sunlight, umbrellas are needless to say, and mosquito repellent and sunscreen products need to be prepared, and heatstroke prevention drugs (such as Huoxiang Zhengqi Capsule) are essential.

2. Respect the living habits of Dai and other ethnic minorities when visiting. Dai people should take off their shoes at home and are not allowed to peek in the bedroom. -It's best to know the folk customs of the main ethnic groups in Banna first, so as to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding.

There are many jewels and jades in Xishuangbanna, so we should choose them carefully.

Taxi drivers will give you a lower charter price at first, but will force you to go to some commercial attractions and shopping places. They will pay tens of dollars to attract tourists to these places. If you insist on not going, they will shorten your trip, such as promising to come back and take you to the airport. If you don't go to the scenic spots or shopping places recommended by them, you will definitely find various reasons not to send you to the airport when you return to the city.
