Dunhuang Weather in June

Generally, Dunhuang weather in June is hot during the day and cool at night. Temperature normally ranges from 16°C(61°F) to 32°C(90°F) which is good for travelling. However, it can be quite dry with an average 1 rainy day and 6mm of precipitation. The awfully dry air in Dunhuang calls for frequent rehydration for travelers.

June is not the peak travel season that visitors can enjoy their trip at a leisure pace. Due to the strong wind blowing sands, please remember to protect your camera with a sand or dust cover when visiting the Echoing Sand Mountain and Crescent Moon Lake.
