Huizhou Weather in October

October weather

October feels warm rather than cool in Huizhou. Daytime highs reach 29°C, with evenings near 20°C. It's less rainy than September, with about six rainy days, so you'll usually have room for outdoor plans.

The milder conditions suit a walk around Huizhou West Lake or a day exploring Luofu Mountain. Showers can still interrupt longer hikes, so keep a flexible plan. The humidity remains noticeable, and afternoons can feel sticky. Save indoor stops, such as Huizhou Museum, for the warmest part of the day.

Holidays and crowds

China's National Day holiday falls in early October. Huizhou West Lake and other popular sights can get crowded then, while hotel and transport prices often rise. Outside the holiday, October is generally calmer and better value than that busy week.

If you hate crowds, visit after the holiday rather than during it. Mid-Autumn Festival sometimes falls in October, but its date changes each year, so don't assume it will overlap with your trip.

October in Huizhou: local tips

October sits between the hotter, wetter summer and Huizhou's cooler, drier November-to-February period. It's a good month for sightseeing, though November is usually a more comfortable choice if you prefer cooler days.

For a local outing, take the lakeside paths around Huizhou West Lake, then try Huizhou-style salt-baked chicken, a local speciality. If you're visiting during National Day, allow extra time to reach the lake and expect busy paths. Outside the holiday, the same walk is more relaxed.
