Matters needing attention
Suggestion 1: self-driving or carpooling is the first choice in transportation, and public transportation in northwest China is very inconvenient. If you are unfamiliar with the road conditions for the first time, it is recommended to play with a group. Although it is not free, it is safe and worry-free.
Suggestion 2: Just arrived in Qinghai, pay attention to rest, don't take strenuous exercise, ban alcohol, eat moderately, drink more water and eat more fruits, which will help you adapt to the plateau environment as soon as possible.
Suggestion 3: The weather in northwest China changes rapidly, so it is best to take a coat in summer.
Recommendation 4: Download the offline map in advance, and don't worry about getting lost when driving through no man's land.
Recommendation 5: If you travel with the elderly or children, you should take drugs to prevent colds, carsickness and high fever.
