Chengdu Weather in October

Jiuzhai Valley

October is mild, with an average maximum temperature of 21 °C (70 °F ) and an average minimum temperature of 15 °C (59 °F ). With just occasional rains, the city is less humid than the previous month. Nighttime temperatures are several degrees lower than during the daytime, and you may feel a little cold at night. Wear long trousers, a light sweater/ jacket, and a light coat if you go outdoors at night.

In October, most of the attractions and places are at their best, making this an ideal time for a visit. The city gets a large number of tourist s daily.

October brings the peak travel season, and the first day of the month is Chinese National Day, meaning that many people have a week-long holiday. Visitors to Chengdu increase sharply during this period. Be sure to book your reservations in advance, as flights and train tickets are difficult to get. Hotel room prices are also several times higher than usual, and you may want to avoid this peak travel period if you are on a budget. See our Chengdu Tours.

Hello, I will be in Chengdu at the end of Sept/beginning of October. What should I expect of the weather? I live in Nanning where it's still very hot and humid. Thanks for your help.
Dear Alo, Based on the former data and the information from the weather forecast bureau, the temperature is about 17-22°C. It's cool. You can take the shirts and coat. In seven days it will be rainy. You should take an umbrella. But i am not sure if it rains in the beginning of October. Here is an useful website to check the new information. You can search it before leaving for Chengdu.
