If you want to make your travel to China a wonderful experience, you are then recommended to take some advice from travel doctors before you plan your travel. These pieces of advice will help you stay safe and healthy during your journey. Some of this advice, however, may be about what you need to do and to know before you travel and some other refers to the time you are in China.

For your travel to China, there is no obligation for any sort of vaccinations but travel doctors recommend your routine immunization be up-to-date for the following: Chickenpox (Varicella) Tetanus-diphtheria (DPT) and measles/Mumps/Rubella (MMR). However, arriving in China from a Yellow-Fever-affected area requires you to have proper vaccinations.

Some other immunizations like Hepatitis A & B, Typhoid, Japanese Encephalitis and Rabies are also recommended depending on your age and the area you are going to visit.

It is also a good idea to see your physician medicine about a month before your trip to China. In fact, you are very much recommended to see a medical expert especially one whose expertise is travel before you travel to China. You are also advised to visit a travel doctor if you are going to stay in China for a period of longer than 3 months.

Until recently, some diseases like Avian Flu and SARS were the main concerns of those who traveled to China, but they are not major health threats for you in China anymore. However, in order to make sure whether or not you need to take any actions regarding these diseases, you may want to consult with travel doctors.

But one of your main concerns when traveling to China can be the drinking water that you use, either to drink or for brushing your teeth. It is a relief to know that there is usually bottled water on the menu of the restaurants and in the hotels, but travel doctors strongly recommend that you boil the tap water before drinking/using it. Remember that even if there is no warning sign in your hotel room about the danger of using the tap water, you should still take the above-mentioned safety measures. However, the good news is that there are stores and super markets almost everywhere in China where you can find bottled water.

Avoiding eating raw vegetables especially if you have an upset stomach is another point that you should consider. It usually makes sense that if a restaurant is quite crowded, especially of local people, then the chances are that the food is fresh and safe to eat.

Travel doctors recommend you take certain medicine with you in case of minor illnesses, but most familiar drugs are available in China. Some of the medicine items that you may want to take with you when travelling to China are as follows:

Any sort of medicine for headache and upset stomach

Insect repellent

Medicine for diarrhea

Sunscreen

And: band aids

Although it is wise to take all the safety and health measures before and during your trip to China, the chances are that you will have a wonderful travel to China. China is a great country with a rich culture welcoming you from the very first moment.
