Carry a portable thermos with you to drink hot water and replenish energy at any time. For example, the Stanley thermos keeps 95° hot water above 57° for 12 hours, and the cup mouth is longer and higher, making it more hygienic to drink. I like to make a cup of tea and take it outdoors, which makes me feel happy, and it looks great in photos. 2. Keep warm, wear a down jacket and snow boots, and match with beautiful accessories to take great photos. 3. Longnan is close to Shaanxi, Gansu, and Sichuan, and has a variety of delicious food, such as noodles, hot pot, barbecue, and spicy hot pot, which are authentic and delicious, and the prices are not high. Remember to bring a 5G stomach and enjoy all kinds of food. 4. As for accommodation, the city is not big, so it is convenient to stay anywhere. You can choose a suitable hotel according to your budget.
