Wuhan Travel Tips

DRESS
Dress is generally informal in China except on social diplomatic occasions. A suit and tie for formal occasions is widely accepted. Dressing modestly is advisable. Winter in the north demands heavy clothing, fleece-lined jackets and earmuffs advisable as the temperature can drop to biting temperature with strong winds. Very light clothing in the summer will be adequate especially in the South.
