1. Xining
Xining, the capital city of Qinghai Province, is a bit far away, but the summer here is indeed cool. It is located in a cold temperate climate zone, with the average summer temperature ranging from 17 to 17 Between 19 and the highest is 26 to 27. Even in the hottest dog days, you will still be greeted by a cool breeze when you go out. Even people who go for morning exercises in the morning must wear coats, so it is known as the "Summer Capital". True to its name.
Xining is a summer resort and a tourist transit station. July and August are the peak tourist seasons in Qinghai every year. People who travel so far here are not aiming to escape the summer heat. What they yearn for more is Qinghai’s blue sky and white clouds, grasslands, snow-capped mountains, and alpine lakes. In Qinghai Lake in this season, rapeseed flowers are blooming brilliantly, and the earth is golden. , the beauty is shocking, and the Chaka Salt Lake is a place you should visit in your lifetime.
Xining also has disadvantages for summer vacation. The altitude here is relatively high. The altitude of the urban area is about 2260 meters, which is higher than the altitude of Kunming. The elderly will have altitude sickness. The cold here is physical, but the air is dry and the air is dry. Average quality and comfort.
2. Liupanshui
Liupanshui is located on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. It is a natural place to escape the summer heat. The urban area is 1400-1800 meters above sea level, which is the most comfortable altitude for humans. Liupanshui’s advantages What’s more, it is located in the two major water systems of the Yangtze River and the Pearl River, surrounded by mountains and forests, and has a cool and humid climate. It is a rare summer resort in low latitudes and high altitudes, and is known as the Southwest. "Cool Garden" and "China's Cool Capital".

What remains unchanged is the coolness of 19 degrees Celsius. It has beautiful and majestic natural beauty and is also a famous outdoor paradise in Guizhou. The nearby Wumeng Prairie, Danxia Mountain, and Yushe are all scenic spots that you can have fun visiting after summer vacation.
3. Harbin
Harbin is famous for its ice and snow in winter, but the most beautiful and comfortable season in Harbin is summer.
Harbin is located in the Songnen Plain. It is the northernmost, highest latitude and lowest temperature metropolis in China. The average summer temperature here is between 19-23 degrees. You can also find this by looking at the weather forecast. Summers in Harbin have often seen temperatures above 30 degrees in recent years, but its climate is characterized by a relatively large temperature difference between day and night. Coupled with the natural regulation of the Songhua River, it is warm, cool and not hot and humid, especially after the sun sets, it is cool and pleasant.
Harbin has both cultural heritage and European style. It is the city with the strongest summer vacation atmosphere in northern China.
Central Street is known as the longest century-old pedestrian street in Asia. It has a full European style. In summer, there is the excitement of the beer garden and the soothing warmth of the balcony concert of the Madier Hotel.
There used to be more than 70 churches in this city, and the bells still seem to linger over the city. When you come to Harbin, don’t forget to take a look at the old churches and old buildings scattered throughout the city.
4. Qingdao
Qingdao is built on the mountains and the sea. The mountains are by the sea and the sea is by the city. The mountains, sea and city are connected. It is one of the most beautiful seaside cities in China.
Benefiting from the influence of the maritime climate, Qingdao is also a city with four distinct seasons and a uniquely good climate. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the metropolis, Qingdao is undoubtedly a place where you can relax and have a leisurely vacation. Great place.
Summer is the peak season for tourism in Qingdao, but it is not the best season in Qingdao. In addition to the large number of people and expensive hotels in summer, the summer climate here is not as pleasant as expected. After entering Qingdao, the temperature is basically over 30 degrees every day. It seems that the temperature is not too high, but the temperature difference is very small. In the middle of the night it was still around 289 degrees, and it was a bit hot and humid. If you look at the air conditioners installed in every house here, you will know that it is impossible to survive the summer without air conditioning.
5. Huangshan
Since Ctrip is a summer resort city, the Huangshan mentioned in the list must be Huangshan City.
If we talk about Huangshan City, this is not a good place to escape the heat in summer. Huangshan City is also known as one of the furnaces of Anhui. The temperature in Huangshan City in July and August every summer is between 25 degrees and 36 degrees. The temperature is even higher, which is not suitable for summer vacation. Looking at the weather forecast, you can find that in the past few days, the temperature in Huangshan City is basically between 25-35 degrees.
If it is the Huangshan Scenic Area, this is a place where you can escape the summer heat. The highest altitude of Huangshan is 1864 meters.
The average temperature in July, the hottest month, is 20.7 degrees Celsius, the hot spring area is 24.9 degrees Celsius, Yungu Temple is 22.9 degrees Celsius, Banshan Temple is 20.9 degrees Celsius, and Beihai is only 18.7 degrees Celsius. The highest temperature on the mountain in summer is around 28 degrees, so the mountain in summer will not be hot during the day, but it will be cold at night. It is rainy in Huangshan, so you need to bring thicker clothes and a raincoat when going up the mountain. Therefore, Huangshan in summer is more suitable for scenic tourism.
6. Xinyang
Xinyang, Henan Province is a city located on the geographical dividing line between north and south. It is known as "Jiangnan North Country, North Country Jiangnan".
The environment here is beautiful, with four distinct seasons, humid air, and a slow pace. It is suitable for living and elderly care. But to say whether it can escape the summer heat, first look at the location. Xinyang is the area closest to the Yangtze River Basin in Henan, and this area is also Xinyang is the place with the highest concentration of hot stove cities. I checked the summer climate data of Xinyang in the past ten years. The temperature here in July and August is basically between 25-36 degrees. This city is not suitable for summer vacation.
The reason why Ctrip lists Xinyang as a summer resort city is probably because of Jigong Mountain, which is 37 kilometers away from the city of Faith.
In the early 2000s, two American missionaries came to Jigong Mountain to investigate in search of a place to escape the summer heat. From then on, Jigong Mountain became known as a domestic summer resort. In just 30 years, Western missionaries, businessmen and Chinese bureaucrats built more than 500 villas in Jigong Mountain, making Jigong Mountain one of the four largest villas in China along with Lushan Mountain, Mogan Mountain and Beidaihe. Summer resort.
Jigong Mountain is 765 meters above sea level. The climate here is cool, with an average temperature of 24"C in summer and abundant rainfall. In addition, the local vegetation is relatively lush, the air quality is good, and the environment is relatively good, even in the dog days of summer. At that time, the temperature here will also reach 30 degrees. Because the altitude is less than 800 meters, the summer here will definitely not be that cool, but the mountains here are majestic, densely covered with pine forests, and there are strange peaks and rocks, plus different styles of The Wanguo Building Complex is also a good place for tourism and summer vacation.
7. Lianyungang
Although Jiangsu is a large coastal province, it does not have a famous coastal city because there are many tidal flats along the coast. , Lianyungang is an exception.
This is a low-key coastal city with beautiful natural scenery of mountains and seas, a long history and cultural heritage, a clean urban environment, good ecology, and a slow pace of life. A city suitable for retirement.
Lianyungang is also a well-known summer resort city in Jiangsu. The average temperature here in July and August is around 26. In the hot season in the surrounding cities, there is a rare opportunity here. It's cool.
Liandao, the largest island in Jiangsu, is full of green trees, fresh air, fine sand and clean sea water. It is a good place to play and escape the heat in summer.

The only places in Sichuan that can really be called summer resorts are Aba and Ganzi in western Sichuan.
Aba Prefecture has unparalleled natural beauty and ethnic minority customs. The temperature here in summer is around 20 degrees, making it the best destination for summer tourism and short-term summer vacation.
However, Aba Prefecture is a high-altitude area, which is more suitable for short-term tourism rather than a long-term summer escape, because many people have obvious altitude sickness here.

But strictly speaking, Jiujiang is not a summer resort city, because it is sunny, hot and dry in summer. In many years, the high temperature days above 35 degrees Celsius last for more than 20 days. However, Jiujiang is a tourist city. The reason why Ctrip listed it as a summer resort city is because there is a world-famous summer resort nearby, which is Lushan Mountain.
