    It is hard to say when is the Best Time to Visit China, as it is a vast country with broad territory. From the frozen months to the hottest months, different parts of China will show people different charms of this country.

    Generally, except some special destinations such as Harbin, the recommended months to travel in China are from April to October. During this period, the weather in most parts of China is comfortable. It provides a good condition to take beautiful photos. 

    Here we’d like to share some information on the best time to travel to China, aiming to help you planning your China tours:

    The north part of China:
    The cold winter may cause a comparative unsatisfied travel in this region, but people like to experience world of snow can consider about this area. Try to avoid the spring time to come here.
