September

September offers the perfect conditions for visiting both Japan and China. Beautiful autumnal leaves begin to spread across Japan, whilst China’s hot and humid summer is coming to an end, meaning conditions for travel are at their most comfortable.

Throughout Japan, September to November provides the mildest, most comfortable climate for travelling; rainfall is usually low during this time and the skies are normally clear. September is also a good time to visit the Islands of Okinawa, as during this time there is less risk of running into a typhoon. Make the most of the beautiful sunshine and enjoy the white sandy beaches whilst much of the rest of Asia’s sands are enduring the wetter weather.

China is a vast country, and although conditions vary throughout the different regions, travellers to the west of the country during September will time it perfectly to see the flowers blossoming, and the sunny days attract visitors all around to the local bazaars, filling them with colour and life. The autumn throughout China provides only a narrow window during which visitors can enjoy the best weather, as humidity is reduced but the sun is still strong. Peak season is just coming to a close in September, and so many of the main cities and attractions can be enjoyed without them being completely overrun with tourists.
