Beijing Weather in August<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

August is our hottest month. The sad thing is that the heat of August comes hand in hand with humidity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The average high temperature for August in Beijing is around highest 31\u2103 and lowest 19\u2103. Temperature varies a bit between day and night. So the feeling temperature in the morning and evening is a bit cooler, and remember to cover your quilt well at night, guarding against catching a cold in an air-conditioned room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to wear in Beijing in August<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wear summer clothes and bring an umbrella since there are occasional thunderstorms. Well book your hotels and tickets in advance. Also check whether your hotel is equipped with an air-conditioner and make sure it functions well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is very important since Beijing is very humid in August, making it very important to have a cool place for your day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the hot months of summer, T-shirts and light pants or shorts are the best choice. Don’t forget to bring sunglasses, sunscreen and umbrella. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you would like to climb the Great Wall of China on a hot, sunny day, you are advised to wear long sleeves, your UV protected long sleeves keep you safe from sunburn and keep you cooler. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
