1, don't stare at people or things.
When traveling in Xinjiang, don't stare at people or things, because Islamic culture believes that people's eyes have supernatural evil energy, which will bring people the unknown. When shopping in the market, don't watch it for too long, otherwise it will cause the other party's dissatisfaction. When traveling new, you should also control your eyes and don't stare at things all the time, otherwise it will bring bad influence to people.
Don't spit on salt and fire.
This is because in ancient times, people thought that salt and fire were sacred and could bring good luck and bad luck. So, if you spit salt and fire, you will bring bad luck, go blind and live in darkness forever. Therefore, tourists should pay attention to taboos, abide by regulations and avoid unnecessary pain in the process of traveling.
Step 3 don't eat pork
Xinjiang is a multi-ethnic area with strong religious color. People who believe in Islam or Catholicism don't eat pork. This is the biggest taboo in their lives, and you must never offend them, especially in ethnic minority areas. Be friendly and don't bargain casually. Some ethnic groups have some taboos, so we must learn more and respect them. Not eating pork is their cultural tradition, as well as their belief and lifestyle, which should be respected and observed.
4. Avoid stepping on or crossing the tablecloth.
It is very important to avoid stepping on or crossing the tablecloth when traveling in Xinjiang. This is because it is respect and courtesy to the guests. When dining, guests should wait for the host or elders, and don't take the food on the plate or cross the tablecloth at will. Doing so will not only make the host feel disrespectful, but also make the guests feel uncomfortable. In addition, we should also pay attention to etiquette when eating, such as not knocking on the plate, not looking around, not laughing, not getting up and walking. Respect the host and guests.
5. Don't drink alcohol
Xinjiang is a multi-ethnic region. Eat pigs, donkeys, dog meat, blood, etc. No drinking during meals. This is the biggest taboo in their lives and must not be offended. Tourists are not allowed to invite ethnic minority friends to eat Chinese food. This is because the religious culture in Xinjiang is diverse, and different ethnic groups have different eating habits and taboos. Failure to follow these rules may lead to unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts.
6. Pay attention to the time difference
Because Xinjiang is located in the East Eighth District, there is a two-hour time difference with mainland cities such as Beijing, and tourism activities are generally arranged from 9: 00 to 20: 00. Tourists should be prepared to adapt to the time difference and pay attention to it. Traveling in Xinjiang, the local time is based on Beijing time, the hotel starts late, and the rest and dining time are adjusted.
7. Don't fart in public.
Because in the Islamic classic hadith, talking fart or silent fart will make bathing invalid, so there may be Muslims around who have already bathed and are ready to worship. According to the classics, they will be forced to take a bath again. So, if you feel angry, try to be patient and don't fart in public, otherwise you may be complained and punished by people around you.
8. Don't take pictures without permission.
When traveling in Xinjiang, don't take photos of others without permission, especially the elderly, Buddhist disciples and children. This is because there are many military restricted zones in Xinjiang, and taking photos at will or entering without authorization will cause unnecessary trouble. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, you should get the consent of the other party in advance and pay attention to the regulations when taking pictures.
9. You don't need to bring too much cash.
Traveling in Xinjiang, in order to avoid potential safety hazards, there is no need to bring too much cash with you. In most places, there are banks and ATMs to withdraw cash locally, and valuables can also be carried with you or stored in the hotel safe. This is one of the top ten taboos in Xinjiang tourism, and it is also to ensure the safety of tourists. Therefore, it is best for tourists to know the local cash management regulations before going out to avoid unnecessary trouble.
10, livestock are not allowed to run around in the cemetery.
This is to avoid the collapse of the tomb. It is forbidden to build pigsty and toilet near the cemetery, and it is forbidden to urinate, spit, blow your nose, pass by or stay in the cemetery, mosque or small canal.

If they cross dirty water, they will be weak during childbirth. Strangers are not allowed to enter the maternity room at will. Generally speaking, they should visit the parturient 12 days after delivery.
