Learn about travel information
If you are traveling with a group, you need to know the travel information in advance, coordinate and get help. For example: dietary restrictions, special accommodation, wheelchairs, and medical staff and medical services.

Reserve time off
The journey is tiring, don’t schedule the itinerary too slowly, leave enough time for yourself to rest, which will not only relieve fatigue but also make the next trip more enjoyable.
The following are some suggestions, I hope they can help You
1. Stay where it’s cool
In fact, this sentence should be said, spring flowers and autumn moon, summer to escape the heat, winter to seek warm. It’s rare to go out, you have to make yourself happy and comfortable, don’t let yourself be exposed to the sun when it’s hot in summer, and don’t let yourself be frozen when it’s cold in winter. Even things that are out of season are cheaper.
Second, you don’t need to be in a hurry, slow down a bit
Since no one is chasing you, then why don’t you get off the car and then sleep in the hotel for a while before playing;
Why don’t you take a nap after playing all morning and then get up to play; if you are tired from playing in the afternoon, why not take a bubble bath in the hotel after dinner and go to bed early. The scenery is always there, use a better mood and a better state to see more beautiful scenery.
Third. >
We often say that we can’t give up halfway, and the scenery on the mountainside is comparable to the beauty of the top of the mountain. But I prefer to walk in the courtyard, wherever I go, to discover the beauty that the rushing pedestrians can’t find.
Actually, we are not shocked by the humiliation, watching the flowers bloom in front of the court; There is always a way to be comfortable and beautiful.
Fourth, you can go shopping and eat, but you must pay attention
< span>It is a wonderful dream to travel all over the world and eat all over the world, especially for food lovers.
For example, spicy, such as seafood, such as fruit that has never been eaten before. Needless to say, spicy, although it is inevitable to try hot pot in Sichuan and Chongqing, it must be within the acceptable range.
If you are allergic to seafood, you should avoid allergies. As for fruits, some fruits are cold, and some fruits are easy to get angry. So, try to maintain a diet that is similar to what you are used to.
Fifth, fire prevention, theft prevention and cold prevention
The temperature changes rapidly in spring and summer, and some patients may experience acclimatization and physical weakness during the journey. In addition, climate change can easily lead to colds. The weakness of the body is the opportunity for cancer cells to germinate. Therefore, patients can learn about the local weather forecast in advance during the travel process, and appropriately add or remove clothing to adapt to changes in temperature, so as not to allow cancer cells to take advantage.
If you and your family and friends have travel plans, we all travel Looking at the scenery, I hope you can master this double-edged sword, devote yourself to sightseeing, and enjoy the time you spend with your family and friends. Let the body and spirit be in a happy and relaxed state, better understand the meaning of travel, and give full play to the value of travel.
Finally, I wish my sisters a happy trip!
