Yangshuo weather from June to August

Summer in Yangshuo can be very humid and hot with an average temperature of 30 degrees during the day and dropping to about 25 degrees at night. The best thing to do in the heat is to take a swim in the Yulong River in front of our sister hotel or go to one of the many caves near Yangshuo Village Inn and have a swim in an underground pool. Try one of our fruit smoothies or a cold beer to refresh.

FALL

September to early December

A very good time to visit Yangshuo is in autumn. The days are mild with an average of about 20 degrees and it is the dry season generally with very little rain. In the evenings and mornings it can be a little chilly so don't forget to bring a warm jumper as well. Autumn is perfect to go on bike rides, hikes and to rock climb around Yangshuo because of the pleasant temperature. Starting in November, fewer tourists come but the Yangshuo weather is really perfect. We recommend this period as an alternative to Summer or Spring when there are many more visitors due to holidays.

WINTER

December through February

Winter temperatures can average 8 degrees but with generally very little rain the sky can be clear and temperature in the sun can reach as high as 18 degrees. For the winter months we have an open log fire and selection of winter specials in the restaurant including homemade spiced wine. In the winter Yangshuo becomes mystical as the mist slowly swirls around the peaks and the sun shimmers off the crystal clear water of the rivers. This time of year is often preferred by insiders as there are many fewer tourists and guests at Village Inn can take advantage of our great winter package deals and experience a traditional Christmas & New Year celebration. Every Winter we welcome you to celebrate Chinese New Year with us.
