While China can be visited year-round, the best time to visit China is in Spring, between April - May and Autumn, September - October.
Springtime sees the fruit trees blossom and plants starting to bud, providing a spectacular sight. Temperatures are pleasantly warm, and evenings are cool without the humidity that the summer months can bring.
Autumn weather tends to be warm and dry, making this a much more comfortable time to explore. Experience stunning hues of red and yellow foliage appear throughout the countryside. As you travel through China, you will have the chance to see the sights in their autumn splendour such as Jiuzhaigou National Park where the vast forests are a blanket of colour reflected in the park’s many lakes.
As you’d expect from the fourth largest country in the world covering 5 times zones, there is also a great deal of variety to consider when planning your China Holiday.
Strictly speaking China has six climate zones but for our purposes we categorise these into five:
The North, home to iconic destinations such as Beijing, Xi'an, the Silk Road, and Harbin. This region is marked by dry conditions, with hot summers and extremely cold winters including some snow.
The East, including Shanghai and the water towns is humid and subtropical with cold damp winters and hot humid summers.
The South, a realm of beautiful landscapes including Guilin, Yangshuo, Yunnan, Sichuan, Hong Kong, and Macau, enjoys a gentler winter, but also higher levels of humidity and rainfall.
The West, including the mystical lands of Tibet, endures much colder winters paired with dry, mild summers.
The Central region, where you can find the majestic Yangtze River, experiences extremes of temperature of heat and humidity.
Another important consideration when planning your holiday is China’s national holidays. Chinese New Year and Golden Week are extremely busy times of the year when it feels like the whole country is on the move and the summer school holiday months can also see major attractions very full.
