Avoid Peak Holidays !
It is not a good idea to travel in China during Chinese holidays when huge numbers of Chinese people are travelling around. The busiest three national holidays in China are Chinese Spring Festival (usually in late Jan or early Feb.), International Labor Day (May 01 to 03) and National Day (Oct 01-07). Spring Festival is an especially crowded time to travel. The advantage of being in China at this time is that you will get the opportunity to experience "first hand" the significance of these celebrations in Chinese culture.
What Clothes for travelling ?
Spring is warm in Hunan; tourists can put on T-shirt and thin coat. However, a thicker coat is also needed as the weather changes a lot in spring. While enjoying your Hunan Tours in summer, you just need to take your T-shirt because it is extremely hot there. Hunan seems to be a little cold in winter, travelers had better bring your sweater and thick coats, or down jacket.
