There are plenty of other reasons to visit China in spring too, and here we share just some of them.

Comfortable walking and hiking

China offers loads of opportunities to walk and hike through stunning scenery, and this can be more of a struggle during the cold winters or scorching summers, so visiting during the spring is the perfect choice.

Take a trek along the Great Wall, or marvel as the beauty of the Li River as you walk alongside it, either as part of a walking tour or by yourself. Explore rice terraces, go and see the pandas, or have a peaceful wander through one of the country’s many parks – the choice is yours!

Eat outside

Eating al fresco isn’t very common in China due to the intense heat in the summer, but during the spring there is no reason why you can dine out on a terrace, rooftop, or in a garden as it will feel warm but not uncomfortable.

Remember that the temperature will drop in the evenings though, so pack some warmer clothes and make sure that you are prepared for this.

Explore the area

No matter where you are staying in China you will find that there is plenty to discover, and one of the best ways to do this is by renting a bike and exploring the area on two wheels.
