While Fujian is mostly coastal, its diverse topography also includes mountainous regions with significantly cooler and more variable weather patterns compared to the coastal areas. The inland cities and mountainous areas offer an interesting contrast in climate, which adds variety to the overall weather experience in the province.
Summer (June to August): Even in the inland and mountainous regions, summer temperatures in Fujian remain relatively warm. However, the higher altitudes of areas like Wuyi Mountain and the Taihang Mountains provide a cooler respite from the intense heat of the coastal areas. Temperatures in these areas can range from 20°C to 30°C (68°F to 86°F). The summer months also bring significant rainfall, especially in the mountains, which is great for the lush green scenery, but travelers should prepare for possible hiking disruptions due to wet conditions.
Autumn (September to November): As with the coastal regions, autumn in Fujian’s inland and mountainous areas is one of the most pleasant seasons. The temperatures in the mountains range from 15°C to 25°C (59°F to 77°F), providing a comfortable environment for trekking and exploring. Fall also brings clear skies, making it ideal for outdoor activities. The foliage in Fujian’s mountainous regions starts to change color in October, adding a beautiful golden hue to the landscape. This is a great time for nature lovers and photographers to explore places like Wuyishan and the forests surrounding the mountains.
Winter (December to February): Winter in the inland and mountainous regions of Fujian can be chilly, with temperatures dropping to 5°C to 15°C (41°F to 59°F). Some of the higher-altitude areas can even dip below freezing during cold spells, making these regions feel colder than the coastal cities. However, winter brings a serene beauty to the mountainous areas, with mist and fog often rolling over the hills, creating a mysterious and ethereal atmosphere. While snowfall is rare, the higher regions may occasionally experience light snow, particularly in January and February.
Spring (March to May): Spring in Fujian’s inland areas sees temperatures between 10°C and 20°C (50°F to 68°F), with a gradual warming trend as the season progresses. The weather is mild, and it’s an excellent time to visit Fujian’s mountainous regions, where wildflowers bloom and the landscape becomes vibrant with new growth. Rainfall begins to increase in May, which can make hiking a bit more challenging, but it also brings out the full splendor of the lush green environment.
