Yichang Weather
Yichang is in a sub-tropical monsoon climate zone with four distinct seasons. It enjoys abundant sunshine and rainfall, and the average annual temperature is around 15ºC (59ºF). June and July are the hottest months as well as the plum rain seasons-a period of unsettled weather with frequent, soaking rains and the temperature is about 25ºC (95ºF) on average.
It is not wise to visit in summer; because the plum rain at this season brings great trouble for transportation. The weather of winter is fairly cold, which is not suitable for travel either. The best seasons for visiting are spring and autumn, when the climate is favorable and pleasant.
Its warm, moist weather makes it an ideal area for growing oranges which are harvested in August. The Chinese traditional dragon-boat festival is the fifteenth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese lunar calendar. This festival is more ceremonious here as it is in memory of a great people of this city-Qu Yuan.
