Nanjing Travel Guide
Nanjing has a humid subtropical climate with plenty of rainfall. The four seasons are distinct in Nanjing, with hot summers and cold winters. The spring is warm and humid, and the rainy season falls on June and July. In summer, Nanjing becomes one of the three “furnace cities” along the Yangtze River, together with Wuhan and Chongqing. Autumn is a short but the most pleasant season. The best time to visit Nanjing is during autumn, when the weather is cool and dry. Osmanthus flowers are in full blossom in autumn, leaving sweet scents flowing all over. Though considered a southern city in China, Nanjing is cold in winter with occasional snow. Please have a look at our Nanjing Tours and choose your time of travel.
