🌤 Weather summary and notes
🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & LOGISTICS: The Vibe: Expect "Grey Sky Romance." Chengdu is famously misty and humid. Temperatures will range from +17°C to +28°C . Clothing: Wear light, breathable layers. May brings high humidity, so moisture-wicking fabrics are your best friend. Essential Gear: A compact umbrella or light raincoat is mandatory—showers are sudden but short. Footwear: Comfortable sneakers with good grip; the historic stone tiles in Jinli and Kuanzhai can become slippery when damp. Photo Tip: Since the sky is often overcast, wear bright colors (red, yellow, or teal) to make your couple photos pop against the grey-toned architecture.
