Tips for High-Altitude Travel
Document Preparation:To travel to Taxkorgan, you need to apply for a Border Management Area Pass. The travel agency can assist by providing guidance on the application process, and you will need to bring valid identification documents when applying.
Clothing Preparation:The average annual temperature in Taxkorgan is 7 to 10 degrees Celsius lower than that in Kashgar. Even when traveling in summer, it is recommended to bring a windbreaker or a thin down jacket, as temperatures are lower in the morning and evening, and you should keep warm. The ultraviolet radiation in high-altitude areas is strong, so you can prepare items such as sun hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen in advance.
Altitude Sickness:Mild altitude sickness may occur in high-altitude areas. It is recommended to purchase portable oxygen cylinders in advance at a pharmacy in Kashgar, priced at about 15 to 20 yuan per cylinder, which is more cost-effective than buying them in Taxkorgan. Tourists with underlying conditions such as high blood pressure or heart disease are advised to consult a doctor before traveling and avoid strenuous running or jumping during the trip, trying to slow down their pace of action.
Driving:Some sections of National Highway G314 (especially between the Gez area and Bulunkou Township) have no mobile phone signal. It is recommended to download offline maps in advance to avoid navigation failure. Taxkorgan County Town has 4G and 5G signals, but the network speed is slightly slower than that in downtown Kashgar.
Dietary Precautions:Taxkorgan County Town offers ethnic特色 (specialty) dining options from various ethnic groups, such as yak hot pot, but please pay attention to food hygiene and avoid eating unclean food.
The one-way custom vehicle trip from Kashgar to Taxkorgan is not only an exploration of natural beauty but also an in-depth experience of various ethnic cultures.
