Hangzhou Weather in March

With Hangzhou stepping into spring in March, being outdoors under a blue sky is comfortable. However, the weather is changeable as between winter and spring, and temperatures vary greatly from day to night even on sunny days. Although it rains occasionally during this month in Hangzhou, the scenery of grass, flowers and willows by the West Lake under drizzly misty rain is enchanting as well.

Beside the beautiful scenery, there will be fewer tourists in March than during the golden travel months of April and May, so why not take advantage to better experience the south China's Jiangnan landscape and the local culture.

Generally speaking, Hangzhou will enter its peak tourist season from the 20th of March, so it is advisable to book hotels and air tickets in advance if you plan to visit during that period of time. With a convenient public transportation system, all the scenic spots within the city can be reached by public buses. But try to avoid taking buses or taxis during rush hours. Moreover, people who are allergic to pollen should avoid going out too much, especially on windy days.
