Climate in Urumqi

Between June and October is the best time to visit Urumqi in terms of the scenery and sights. During this time, the flowers and trees on the mountains blossom and the peaks of the mountains in the distance covered in snow can be seen clearly. In winter too, the scenery is spectacular, although the cold makes things here a little hard to bear. Heaven's Lake, to the north east of the city, is almost deserted in the winter months with the cold making this spot accessible only to the very hardy traveler.

The average annual rainfall here is 194 mm, and the average temperature is 25.7 degrees in the hottest months of July and August, and a freezing minus 15.2 degrees in the coldest month of January. Spring and autumn last for longer than winter and summer with significant differences in temperature between day and night.
