Wuhu Weather in November

November: crisp autumn days

Wuhu in November feels cool rather than wintry. Afternoons reach 18°C, but mornings and evenings can drop to 7°C, so pack a layer you can take off. Rain falls on about eight days, and the sky is often cloudy, so save your walk around Jinghu Park or along the Yangtze riverside for a dry day.

You'll get about five hours of sun a day, and the days are shorter than in October. The weather suits city walks and indoor stops, but long outings in the open become less appealing once the rain rolls in. On a wet afternoon, Wuhu Museum or a bowl of the city's well-known shrimp noodles makes a good fallback.

Events and crowds

November doesn't have a major public holiday in China, so the city is usually calmer than it is during the October National Day break. No famous annual Wuhu festival reliably falls this month either. Singles' Day, on November 11, is a huge online shopping event rather than a travel holiday, so it won't change your plans much.

If crowds put you off, November is a good choice. Hotels and attractions feel less pressed than they do at the autumn peak, even though October remains the city's best month. Prices aren't guaranteed to drop, though, and local events and weekends can still make a difference, so check before you book.

Tips for Wuhu in November

Compared with October's warmer afternoons, November suits shorter walks and relaxed sightseeing better than a full day outdoors. The cooler air also makes a hot bowl of shrimp noodles especially welcome.

Travelling with kids? Keep a rainy-day stop in Jinghu District, where you can pair time by Jinghu Lake with nearby indoor sights. For a practical local tip, use Wuhu's rail transit to reach the area rather than counting on a long lakeside walk in the rain. Check the route to your chosen stop before you set out.
