Ningxia weather

Ningxia is located in the interior of China and has a temperate continental arid and semi-arid climate. The Liupan Mountains in the south are humid and rainy, with low temperatures. Low, frost-free period is short. The north has abundant sunshine, strong evaporation and large temperature difference between day and night. Ningxia has four distinct seasons. Spring warms up quickly and autumn cools down early. Personally, I think Ningxia can be visited all year round, and the most suitable season is from April to November.

(1) In spring (April-May), everything in Ningxia revives and birds return. The temperature in Ningxia, which has four distinct seasons, gradually rises. At this time, Ningxia’s natural scenic spots are already full of green. , and there are not many people.

(2) Summer (June-August) is the peak tourist season in Ningxia. The climate in Ningxia in summer is dry and hot, but all the scenery can be seen. Camping at night in Shapotou, Shahu, and Tengger Desert is a great time. A highlight of the desert.

(3) Autumn (September-November) is also very suitable for traveling to Ningxia. Ningxia in autumn is more quiet and peaceful, and the sky is far away, echoing the earth.

(4) Winter (December-March) Ningxia is very peaceful and quiet in winter. The desert is desolate and desolate, and the snow falls on the loess, but it shows the desolate northwest.
