Best time to visit Beijing

The best time to travel in Beijing is in spring and autumn, especially the late March to May, and September to mid-October. If your travel time is flexible, we would highly recomend you to visit Beijing and China from late March to May or September to mid-October. But please don't forget to avoid the Chinese public holidays, like the National Day Holiday (Oct 01- Oct 07). 
 

Travel to Beijing in Spring - Comfortable Season

Spring (March to May) in Beijing is always short. When you prepare to enjoy a beautiful and comfortable spring after enduring the long winter of Beijing, you always come to realize that spring is almost gone and summer is coming. The climate in early spring could be dry, warm and cloudy. But you still need to bring cotton-padded jacket, coat, or long-sleeved clothes, as the weather changes quite fast.
 
Hiking for fresh air is a good choice if you plan to travel to Beijing in spring, destination in the following can be arranged in your Beijing spring hiking tour:

Travel to Beijing in Summer - the Hottest Season

Summer (June to August) is considered as the peak season, when hotels typically raise their rates and the Great Wall groans under the weight of marching tourists. As you know, June and August is during summer holiday for students. You will see a lot of students group in Forbidden city and the Great Wall.
 
The sites in summer should consider about to get rid of the summer heat. So the place we recommend that includes the Summer Palace, Houhai area, Beihai Park. If you want to take excursion outside Beijing, you can visit the Mountain Resort in Chengde.

Travel to Beijing in Chinese Spring Festival

Everywhere is booked-out during the Chinese New Year (usually in January or February). But it is definitely a totally different experience for foreign tourists. If you choose to travel to Beijing during Spring Festival, make sure that:
 
  1. You can book a hotel room, earlier than 3 to 4 months reservation
  2. Book tours as early as you can, as many tour guides are not willing to work and will go back to their hometown to spend the holiday with their families
  3. Afford comparative expensive tour fees than the usual time
  4. Have a realization that streets will be very crowded
  5. Tips for tour guide should be higher
