Before traveling, residents should pay attention to the epidemic situation in their destinations and do not travel to medium- and/or high-risk areas for COVID-19.

Residents are also advised to reduce long-distance travel and not to leave the province unless necessary. Although excursions in the outskirts are encouraged, if you leave the city where you live, you must comply with the epidemic prevention and control measures such as taking a nucleic acid test.

Residents should also pay attention to natural disasters during the journey, and do not enter undeveloped protected areas, reservoirs, uninhabited islands and other areas that are not open to the public to travel in order to avoid accidents.
