I am planning a trip to Beijing through to Shanghai spring of 2005. What kind of weather can we expect, which is the best month to visit?
We will have some "older" seniors in our group.

Thanks

The four seasons are very clear in Beijing with a temperate spring, rainy summer, clear autumn, and a cold, snowy winter. The time you will visit Beijing would be Jan, which is the coldest month of Beijing with an average temperature of -4.6 C.

Although winter is technically longer, that should not keep you from travelling to Beijing as indoor heating is widely available. Nevertheless, as the indoor / outdoor temperature difference is rather large, travelers should be prepared with warm clothing and a thick coat is recommended for the colder months of the year. In winter, off-season discounts are to be had as well.

The best times to visit Beijing are in spring and autumn, particularly in the months of April, May, September and October. In particular, autumn is considered to be the best time to visit Beijing as the skies are clear and the weather is very comfortable.
