The climate of Hangzhou (China)
Hangzhou is situated in the delta of the Yangtze River. It is said to be one of the most beautiful cities in China. Famous for its historical buildings and the beautiful scenery in and around the city. The most important attraction is West Lake. Many beautiful temples and buildings can be found on the banks of this lake. The beautiful hills and forests surrounding the lake make for a nice setting for these buildings. Hangzhou has a warm maritime climate characterized by few differences in temperatures between summer and winter. The temperature of the water in the vicinity of the city doesn’t change rapidly which influences the temperature of the air. The monsoon is during the summer. There is a risk of tropical storms at the end of summer and during autumn. However, Hangzhou rarely gets hit by a tropical storm, it only suffers from indirect consequences.
