— — What should I pay attention to when traveling?
When traveling abroad, tourists should abide by local laws and regulations, social public order and social morality, respect local customs, cultural traditions and religious beliefs, and try not to affect the normal life of local people. Take good care of local cultural relics, do not scribble on buildings, and resolutely resist all kinds of uncivilized tourism behaviors.
In addition, tourists need to consult on related matters during their journey, complain about tourism rights protection, and call the "12301" tourist hotline for help in case of travel emergency.
When infringement is suspected, we should rely on all kinds of appeal channels to defend our rights reasonably and legally, and should not assert our rights and interests without restrictions, and take excessive rights protection actions. If it is inconvenient to defend our rights during the trip, we can keep relevant evidence and seek solutions after returning.
For international tourists, they should pay close attention to the travel tips issued by tourism, diplomacy and other relevant departments to understand the weather, hygiene, traffic and social security of the destination. In case of emergency and unexpected situation, they can ask the local embassy or consulate for help.
