The items to prepare for a September trip to Xinjiang include documents, clothing, sunscreen products, toiletries, medications, and some other practical small items.?
Documents: An ID card is a must. Security checks in Xinjiang are very strict, and it will be difficult to get around without an ID card. In addition, student IDs and driver’s licenses can be used to enjoy discounts, and the Xinjiang Health Travel Code is also required. If you need to go to border areas, you also need to prepare a border pass. A small amount of cash is also a must-have just in case.?
Clothing:?
Due to the large temperature difference between day and night in Xinjiang in September, you can wear short-sleeved shirts or thin sweaters during the day and switch to thicker clothing such as raincoats, wool jackets, or insulated jackets at night.?
Long pants, hoodies, pajamas, etc., are also essential.?
In terms of footwear, it is best to wear sneakers or outdoor shoes, preferably waterproof, because there will be dew on the grass during sunrise and sunset.?
Sunscreen products: Xinjiang’s sunshine is intense, so sunscreen (SPF50 and above), sunscreen spray, sun hats, sunglasses for sun protection, sun-protective shirts, etc., are all necessary. In addition, a sun umbrella is a good item for sun protection and also a good choice for taking photos.?
Toiletries: A toothbrush set, a full set of skincare samples, moisturizing facial cream, lip balm, facial cleansing towels, tissues, wet wipes, etc., are daily necessities. Due to Xinjiang’s dry climate, face masks, sprays, body lotions, and other hydrating and moisturizing products are also essential.?
Medications: Prepare some commonly used medications such as motion sickness pills, cold medicine, stomach medicine, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, allergy medication, insect repellent, altitude sickness medication, band-aids, etc., in case of unexpected situations.?
Other practical small items:?
A camera and charger for capturing beautiful moments during the trip.?
A portable battery pack for when your phone or other electronic devices run low on battery.?
A neck pillow can make resting more comfortable on long-distance buses.?
Foldable kettles, foldable tea cups, etc., should be carried according to personal habits.?
