Chengdu enjoys a subtropical monsoon
climate characterized by an early spring, hot summer, cool autumn and
warm winter. The average annual temperature for the year is 16 degrees
C.
The best time to visit is between March
and June or between September and November. The hottest season here is
during July and August when temperatures can be almost unbearable
although Chengdu does have a few nice spots (such as Qingchengshan
Mountain) outside the city center where it is possible to get some
shade and respite from the heat.
This is also however the rainy season and
it is awkward juggling the two types of weather at once! In summer the
heat is wet with a high temperature of 35 degrees C and in winter, the
average temperature is approximately 5 degrees C.
