As someone who has taken their elders on special trains to Xinjiang twice, it is necessary to share a few easily overlooked precautions! Firstly, it is important to have parents bring their ID cards and insurance. Many tourist attractions require real name registration for admission. Additionally, it is recommended to purchase separate travel accident insurance, as some special train fees do not include accident insurance, providing additional protection and peace of mind. If parents have a senior citizen's certificate or disability certificate, they can also bring it, and some self funded projects may have discounts.
I have accompanied my parents on the Chengdu train. The distance between scenic spots in Xinjiang may be a bit far, but the itinerary of the Chengdu train is very reasonable and not rushed. I remind my parents not to walk too fast when visiting, especially in places like Karez and Kashgar Ancient City that require walking. When they get tired, they should find a rest area to take a break. High altitude attractions such as the Pamir Plateau and Lake Karakul should advise parents not to engage in strenuous exercise, to walk slowly and breathe more. If they feel dizzy or chest tightness, they should promptly inform their tour guide or medical staff. You can also take a look at the itinerary on the foot travel special train, which has written down the altitude of each scenic spot to know in advance which days need special attention.
Last year, I took my parents on the Chengdu train to Xinjiang and summarized a few travel tips for taking the special train. Health preparation is of utmost importance! My parents are getting old, so it's important to have a comprehensive physical examination before departure, especially for blood pressure and heart function. On the fifth day of the Chengdu trip, we will be going to the Pamir Plateau. Elderly people over 65 years old or with underlying diseases can choose to rest. This must be clearly explained to my parents in advance and not forced. Remember to bring all the necessary medications for your parents, such as antihypertensive medication, hypoglycemic medication, motion sickness medication, as well as cold medicine and gastrointestinal medicine. Although there are two certified medical staff on the special train, bringing your own commonly used medication is more reassuring. There is a large temperature difference between morning and evening in Xinjiang. Even in summer, it is necessary to bring thin down jackets and assault jackets, and choose non slip sports shoes for shoes. It is more comfortable to walk when visiting scenic spots. You can also go to the foot sports tourism special train and do some strategy, which lists all the precautions in all aspects and helps us consider everything we didn't expect.
