October is an excellent time for sightseeing tours in China, offering detailed and captivating experiences. It's an ideal period for exploring Tibet, especially the southeast regions with milder climates such as Shigajie and Lhasa. Shigajie maintains an average annual temperature of +6.5°C, while Lhasa registers +8°C. In contrast, the Tibetan plateau above 4,500 meters and northern Tibet have average temperatures below freezing, with permafrost areas.
Fall vacations in China also present opportunities for coastal getaways, whether you opt for the classic Chinese resort of Beidaihe or the southern island of Hainan. Additionally, if you wish to explore one of China's megacities without the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong or the congestion of Beijing, consider Shenzhen—a city renowned for its skyscrapers and natural parks.
