About the issue of dressing when traveling to northern Sichuan and southern Gansu (Ruoergai, Langmusi, etc.) from the end of June to the beginning of July
Driving or taking the bus? The temperature in Gannan (Zorgai and other places) is relatively low from June to July, ranging from 20 to 22 degrees Celsius during the day and 2 to 5 degrees Celsius at night. The temperature difference between day and night is large. The rainy season begins in July, and the temperature will be even lower when it rains. It is recommended to wear a jacket to keep out the cold and rain. If you don’t have a jacket, a jacket + fleece or a thin sweater is still necessary. Hiking boots are not necessary, but rain will affect your activities, and it will be troublesome if your shoes get wet. The roads in Labrang Monastery and Langmusi Monastery are not very good. If you just want to see the theme buildings, sneakers are fine. If you want to see the Sky Burial Platform, traveling shoes are best. Overall, I feel that sneakers are a bit thin. The temperature in June and July is better than heavy travel shoes.
