Post Time:2020-01-16 Views:
Welcome to Xinjiang! We have many queries about the Xinjiang altitude when clients eager to travel Xinjiang. They worried about the Altitude of the scenic spots. Although altitude in Xinjiang ranges from -154 (Aiding Lake in Turpan) to 8611m (Chagargil, Chakar Aghil, Kingata Tagh) in Kashgar. But most of the clients have no sickness of altitude when travelling in Xinjiang.
What is High Altitude Sickness
It refers to the symptoms of headache, dizziness, blindness, tinnitus, general fatigue, difficulty in walking and falling asleep when people reach a certain altitude (generally more than 2700 meters), in order to adapt to the changes of air pressure difference, oxygen content and air dryness caused by altitude.
In addition to the western border of the Pamir Plateau and other Alpine areas, there is generally no plateau reaction,most of the sites we will visit are 1000 meters below the sea level.
