When to go, and when not to

The strongest months for visiting Nanning are March, October, November, and December, which combine relatively high sunshine hours with more moderate temperatures than the middle of the year. November and December also see notably lower rainfall than the summer months, making outdoor sightseeing more practical.

Peak season overlaps with some of these good-weather months but also includes August, which brings much higher rainfall and heat than the autumn and winter months. Late spring and summer, especially May and June, bring the heaviest rain of the year, and July stands out for the highest sunshine hours alongside very high temperatures, so travelers who prefer drier, cooler conditions may want to avoid that stretch.
