in other scenic spots in china, can you bring instant noodles in? are there instant noodles for sale? do scenic spots provide boiled water? jimu news reporters noticed that some scenic spots previously advocated not bringing instant noodles in on the grounds of environmental pollution, sparking social discussion.

on september 22, a reporter from jimu news called the jiuzhaigou scenic area, and the relevant staff responded that there is no restriction on tourists bringing their own instant noodles, but only the nuorilang service center in the scenic area provides boiled water, and shops also provide boiled water when selling instant noodles, but if there are too many tourists, they may not be able to meet the demand. the staff also said that the scenic area had previously recommended that tourists not bring self-heating rice, but this has now been cancelled.

huangshan scenic area issued a statement to respond to why it does not encourage eating instant noodles on the mountain (source: internet)

in 2006, the huangshan scenic area in anhui province issued a notice prohibiting the sale of instant noodles, requiring all business units and contracted operators in the area to immediately stop selling instant noodles, and clarified the handling methods for violators. in july 2023, some tourists reported online that they could not find boiling water for instant noodles in the huangshan scenic area. the scenic area responded with the question "why does huangshan not encourage eating instant noodles on the mountain?", saying that many tourists pour the leftovers beside the tourist trails, in the bushes, and under the cliffs after eating instant noodles. in the long run, this will change the ph value of the soil, which is not conducive to the growth of plants, especially huangshan pine; the instant noodle residues poured out by tourists will also be eaten by squirrels and birds on the mountain, which will threaten the protection of huangshan's biodiversity and is not conducive to the sustainable development of huangshan. "in order to avoid a large amount of instant noodle residual soup from harming the ecology of huangshan, the huangshan scenic area management committee has taken measures to ban the sale of instant noodles and discourage the practice of eating instant noodles on the mountain."

on september 22, jimu news also contacted huangshan scenic area. the operator said that there is no regulation prohibiting tourists from bringing instant noodles into the scenic area. however, even if instant noodles are brought into the scenic area, there is no boiling water to make them. "the drinking water temperature on the mountain is between 40 degrees celsius and 60 degrees celsius, which is not suitable for making instant noodles. instant noodles are not sold on the mountain. it would be more convenient to bring a self-heating pot."

staff at shandong taishan scenic area told jimu news that tourists are allowed to bring their own instant noodles into the scenic area, but hot water is generally provided by self-operated shops and may need to be paid for. regarding the popular self-heating pot, staff at taishan scenic area said that self-heating pots are flammable and explosive items and are not recommended for tourists to bring.

staff at the laoshan scenic area in qingdao, shandong said that tourists can bring their own instant noodles and self-heating food into the scenic area, but they cannot throw away garbage at will. a tourist who just visited the laoshan scenic area told jimu news that there are many businesses selling instant noodles in the laoshan scenic area.

staff at shaanxi huashan scenic area said that the scenic area does not prohibit tourists from bringing their own instant noodles and self-heating foods, but boiled water is sold to the public by merchants.
