The climate of Suzhou (China)
The ancient character of Suzhou has been well preserved. The old city
gate can still be admired as well as many temples and pagodas. Many
old shops can be found along the canals that flow through the city.
Many beautiful gardens can be visited, all of them in authentic
Chinese style. A good example is the Youyicun garden. A garden with
many beautiful vistas and flowering trees and plants. The climate of
Suzhou is ideal for these gardens. Suzhou has a warm China climate
with very long, wet and warm summers; ideal for the abundant
vegetation. Winters are colder than in places that enjoy a tropical
climate because of the Siberian winds.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
