Is it really bad? My vacations are always the 2 last weeks of July and I can't change that.

I'm mostly interested in Beijing and the North of the country. The average daytime temperature where I live in July is 26-30 celcius and always very humid, can I expect the same around Beijing?

Is July really the peak of touristic season?

July could be hot but not humid in most of Northern Areas. Meanwhile it's not the peak for tourism , but the coming Aug and Semp could be due to the summer vacation of most schools.

Fabulous to hear you're interested in the North of China!

Yeah, most students start their holidays at the end of July and so you may have a day or two where it's difficult to get on a train.... but otherwise July isn't so bad.

Of course summer (July/August)is the peak tourist time and there are a lot of people in general in China, but you shouldn't encounter any serious problems with lack of transport or accommodation at this time.

Tomorrowneverdies is right about the weather. Having lived and travelled all over the NE of China I can tell you it is hot in the summer, highs around 30 degrees, sometimes hotter, lows in the 20s. The further north you go the (slightly) cooler it gets, of course.

Enjoy.
