The climate of Tangshan (China)
Tangshan is a large industrial town in the province of Hebei. The city
is very old; several remains from these ancient times can still be
found in the city. Several graves dating back to the Qing dynasty can
be found. The city is also an important sanctuary for followers of
Confucius, Taoism and Buddhism. Mount Jingzhong is an important place
for the followers of these religions. Because the city is situated in
the vicinity of a fault line it was destroyed several times in the
past. Because of this modern constructions and old remains form a
harmonious whole. Although the city is situated on the water Tangshan
has a warm continental climate. This causes extreme differences in
temperatures between summer and winter. This is mainly caused by the
cold Siberian winds. Summers are wet because of the monsoon.

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:
