Common Questions About Silk Road Travel
1. When is the best time to visit the Silk Road?
The best time to travel is from May to October. Weather conditions are pleasant from late spring to early autumn, with an average temperature of 15 °C. Although summer weather can be scorching, the heat is dry and more comfortable than in the humid tropics. The scenery is ideal when the fruits ripen, the flowers are in full bloom, and green grass covers grassland areas.
2. What to Bring?
Bring warm clothing even in the hot summer, as the temperature can change greatly between day and night in some places along the route.
Bring shoes suitable for walking.
Use sunscreen, sunglasses, and lip creams to protect your eyes and skin from the sun. Also consider bringing a moisturizer because the air is very dry in the desert areas.
Bring some medicine for diarrhea and heat stroke.
3. Culture Considerations?
When visiting religious sites such as mosques, women should wear long–sleeve clothes. At certain times women are not allowed to enter mosques. Taking photos at some attractions is forbidden; please follow your tour guide's lead. When you shop at the market, bargaining is taboo if you do not intend to make the purchase.
