Best Travel

The best months to travel are March to May and September to November. The Songshan area has four distinct seasons, with moderate cold and warm temperatures. The average annual temperature difference between the mountains and the mountains is 4 to 5 degrees, and the annual average temperature is 10.2 degrees. In spring, hundreds of flowers bloom, and in autumn, the mountains are covered with red leaves. Because there is relatively more rain in autumn, you can enjoy the spectacular Luya Waterfall. During these two seasons, Songshan is neither cold nor hot, making it easy to travel, and the temperature and humidity will make people extremely comfortable. You can also see waterfalls and flowing water in summer, but there is a lot of rain and high temperatures, making the travel process relatively difficult. Songshan Mountain is cold and dry in winter. Except for the Shaolin Temple, some natural scenery such as Sanhuangzhai will be greatly reduced. The Zen Music Ceremony will also be suspended at this time.
