Traveling China in Spring

As the saying goes, April and May are key times of the year, since both months fall in spring. Traveling to China in spring is an excellent option, since not only can you enjoy picturesque landscapes, but you can also revitalize your life. Now, let's introduce some suitable places to travel, such as Guilin, Huangshan, Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Kind advice

When traveling in spring, it is important to keep the following points in mind:

1. Keep the body warm. Because the weather in spring is changeable, it is best to know the weather conditions of the destination in advance and prepare appropriate clothing.
2. Prevent pollen allergies. Spring is the season when most plants bloom, and the air is full of pollen. Before going out, anti-allergy medications can be taken. Additionally, it is important to avoid getting close to plants or sleeping on the grass.
3. Avoid sun exposure. Sunlight in spring can be intense and burn the skin. After sun exposure, wash your face not with cold water, but with warm water. The most important thing is to apply sunscreen in time to protect yourself from ultraviolet rays.
4. In spring, everything comes to life and many insects begin to be active. When carrying out outdoor activities, it is important to be careful with spiders, bees, scorpions, and in case of bites, do not scratch the wound, but apply an anti-inflammatory ointment.

Travel China in Summer

Summer is the second season of the year, generally between the months of June, July and August in the northern hemisphere. During this period, life begins to activate. Although most regions of China experience a warm climate, we recommend some ideal places to vacation and appreciate landscapes different from those of other seasons. You can visit the ancient villages of Yunnan, enjoy a cruise along the Li River in Yangshuo to see its stunning landscapes, admire the majestic views of the Yangtze River, explore the paradise of Zhangjiajie in Hunan, marvel at the beauty of Qinghai Lake and feel the vastness of the Hulun Buir grasslands.

Kind advice

When traveling in summer, it is important to keep the following points in mind:

1. Check the weather forecast. Although summer is usually hot, there can also occasionally be heavy rain. Therefore, it is important to check the weather forecast before leaving on your trip and be prepared by bringing an umbrella or parasol.
2. Wear light clothing. Due to the heat of summer, wearing cool, light clothing helps sweat evaporate quickly, keeping the body dry and cool.
3. Wear sunglasses, sunscreen and a hat. Ultraviolet radiation in summer is intense and can burn the skin, so it is important to apply sunscreen. In addition, sunglasses not only protect against the sun, but are also useful for taking photographs. A hat is easy to wear and provides additional shade.
4. It is advisable to bring water, food and fruits to stay hydrated and energized during the trip.

Travel China in Autumn

Autumn is the third season of the year, generally between the months of September, October and November in the northern hemisphere. The most obvious feature of autumn is the change in plants, with most leaves turning yellow and beginning to fall. Of course, fall is also a harvest time, with many crops reaching maturity at this time. Therefore, autumn is a good time to travel to China, where you can not only appreciate beautiful landscapes, but also experience the joy of the harvest. You can visit the fairy tale world in Jiuzhaigou, admire the magnificent scenery of Longji Rice Terraces in Guilin, enjoy the moon at the Mid-Autumn Festival in Hangzhou West Lake, and experience the beauty of autumn in Shangri-La.

Kind advice

When traveling in autumn, it is important to keep the following points in mind:

1. Keep the body warm. With the gradual drop in temperatures towards the end of autumn, it is necessary to dress appropriately to avoid colds.
2. Pay special attention to gastrointestinal health, since in autumn it is common to suffer from diarrhea or gastrointestinal diseases. It is recommended to consume light and clean foods.
3. Prevent pollen allergy. In addition to spring, autumn is another time when it is possible to develop a pollen allergy, due to the maturation of plants and dry air. You can take anti-allergy medications before going out. In addition, you should avoid approaching plants or sleeping on the grass.

Travel China in Winter

Winter is the last season of the year, generally between the months of December, January and February in the northern hemisphere. In many places, winter presents a very quiet and lonely atmosphere, with some plants withering and some animals entering a state of hibernation, and even some migratory birds flying to warmer places to spend the winter. However, there are always some suitable tourist destinations to visit in winter. You can celebrate Chinese New Year in China's capital, Beijing; go shopping in the Hong Kong metropolis; watching black-headed gulls at Dian Lake in Kunming, Yunnan Province; enjoy the beautiful frost on the Yellow Mountain and the ice sculptures in Harbin; or spend a warm and pleasant winter in Sanya, Hainan province.

Kind advice

When taking a trip in winter, it is important to keep the following in mind:

1. Stay warm. If you want to enjoy snowy landscapes, it's crucial to stay warm. It is recommended to wear thick coats, sweaters and hats.
2. Bring medicine to prevent colds. Due to the low temperatures, it is easy to catch a cold.
3. Wear sunglasses. Sunlight in the snow can be intense, so it is important to protect your eyes with sunglasses. If you suffer from photokeratitis, it is necessary to rest in a dark place and put a cold, wet compress on your forehead to relieve the pain.
