When to Go: Kunshan is subject to subtropical monsoon climate, enjoying abundant sunlight and plentiful rainfall all year round. Thanks to the moist and humid weather, the annual average temperature is just 15.5°C. Therefore, all of the four clear seasons here are pleasant for visitors. Worth a special mention is the season when the Eight Immortals Flower (April-May) and Twin Lotus Flowers (July-August) bloom. Both are specialties of the city. Additionally, for those visitors who would like to whet their appetite, the best time is from September to November when one can savor the plump Yangcheng Lake crab.
