October-November (Autumn): Ideal weather with pleasant temperatures (20-25°C), low humidity, and clear skies. Comfortable for outdoor activities and sightseeing. Peak tourist season means higher prices and crowds.
December-February (Winter): Cool and dry (15-20°C), with occasional cool snaps. Excellent visibility for peak views and hiking. Chinese New Year (late January/February) brings festive celebrations and crowded attractions. Holiday rates apply.
March-May (Spring): Warming temperatures (20-28°C) but increasing humidity. Spring showers occur; pack an umbrella. Cherry blossoms and greenery create beautiful scenery. Fewer crowds than autumn.
June-September (Summer): Hot and humid (27-32°C) with frequent typhoons and heavy rainfall. Air quality sometimes compromised. Indoor attractions like museums and shopping malls become refuges from heat. Lowest prices and smallest crowds, but weather unpredictable. Avoid if possible.
