China is a year-round destination. However, the weather varies between Beijing, Zhangjiajie, Fenghuang, and Shanghai.
Spring brings mild weather and fresh green scenery. Therefore, this is a good time for sightseeing, walking, and photography.
Summer is warm and can be humid. However, Zhangjiajie’s mountains are usually green and beautiful during this period.
Because summer is popular, we recommend booking early.
Autumn is one of the best periods for this trip. The weather is generally comfortable, while the mountain scenery can look especially beautiful.
Winter brings colder weather, especially in Beijing. Zhangjiajie can also become cold and misty. However, fewer visitors can make this a good option if you prefer a quieter holiday.
