Local context
What to expect in November
🎯 Harvest season — fresh local produce at markets and restaurants Autumn in Chengdu is often underrated: 16°C, golden light and declining crowds. An interesting window. Rain risk remains low (17% of days), leaving good room for outdoor activities. Not the best window, but acceptable if dates are constrained. May (7.6/10) is significantly better if possible.
