🌤 Weather summary and notes
🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect a beautiful "Early Summer" vibe with daytime highs of +23°C to +27°C. While the sun is warm, the 10-15 degree drop at night means you should pack light layers (a denim jacket or windbreaker is essential). Pro Tip: May is the tail end of "Yellow Dust" season; if the sky looks hazy, grab a KF94 mask at any 7-Eleven. Nature Alert: You are visiting during the peak of rose blooming season—keep your cameras ready for lush greenery and floral displays in the parks.
