What are the practical strategies for traveling to the northwest in September?
Today, I have compiled a travel guide for pit prevention and mine clearance, hoping to help everyone ~
Travel preparation
Required documents: ID card, student ID card, etc.
Moisturizing: lip balm, hand cream and hydrating spray.
Remember to prepare sunscreen, sunscreen clothes, hats, sunglasses, shawls and strong ultraviolet rays.
Cash: zfb and wx are basically promoted in the northwest, and small towns may use them.
Tip: There are many settlements of Hui, Tibetan, Mongolian and other ethnic minorities along the way. Please respect other national cultures.
Tips: The scenic spots in Gansu and Qinghai are far away, and the traffic is not very convenient. It is prone to high rebellion and is also a gathering place for ethnic minorities. Friends who go for the first time had better join a local group to save money.
