Guizhou Travel Tips

1. Guizhou is located on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, with an average altitude of around 1,000 meters. It is widely known that "it never clears up for three straight days" in Guizhou, as rainy and overcast weather is common, so remember to bring umbrellas or rain gear. Also bring appropriate seasonal clothing to stay warm.

2. Roads in scenic areas may be slippery during the trip; it is recommended to wear non-slip, comfortable shoes.

3. Huangguoshu Scenic Area has steep slopes; elderly visitors are advised to hold the handrails and take extra care for their safety.

4. When hiking or sightseeing in mountainous areas, stay close to the protective railings on narrow paths. Do not enter dangerous spots to take photos. Be cautious of crowds and collisions.

5. Guizhou is a multi-ethnic province where the local cuisine is mostly sour and spicy with strong flavors. The dietary habits differ significantly from those in Guangdong, so please be prepared for this difference.

6. In scenic areas requiring transfer to electric sightseeing vehicles or cruise boats, especially during busy periods, please follow the instructions of scenic area staff and your tour guide.

7. Due to relatively backward economic development in Guizhou, hotels of the same star rating may have fewer facilities and simpler conditions compared to those in Guangdong.
