Guilin Weather in October

October offers pleasant, dry weather with comfortable temperatures, making it one of the best months to visit. However, the first week is Golden Week, a major Chinese holiday, causing huge crowds and high prices.

Light layers, a light jacket for evenings, and comfortable shoes. Sunscreen and a hat for sunny days. An umbrella for occasional showers.

Avoid the first week if you dislike crowds; otherwise book everything far in advance. After Golden Week, crowds thin out, and the weather remains lovely.
