Local context
What to expect in November
Autumn in Hangzhou is often underrated: 18°C, golden light and declining crowds. An interesting window. Expect rain on 34% of days — a light raincoat in the bag is recommended. Not the best window, but acceptable if dates are constrained. May (7.5/10) is significantly better if possible.
