The climate of Hakha (Myanmar)
Hakha is located in the western part of Myanmar at an altitude of
6,000 meters above sea level at the foot of Mount Rung Tlang. The city
is the capital of the Chin district which is situated on a plateau in
the mountains. Hakha has a warm China climate. This unique climate
type can only be found in tropical areas at a high altitude. Because
of the altitude temperatures are low by tropical standards. However
both humidity and precipitation figures are the same. This causes a
unique climate which is ideal for the cultivation of crops. Although
summers are warm and wet just like in places with a tropical climate,
winters are much colder. This is of course caused by the high
altitude; the higher you travel, the colder it gets.

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:
