Dunhuang Weather - Information-on Dunhuang Climate
The climate of Dunhuang is not so bad as we imagined. Dunhuang is surrounded by high mountains, its great distance from the moist sea breezes helped form its arid continental climate. The annual average temperature is 9.3 C (48.74 F) in Dunhuang, but ranges from 24.7 C (76.46 F) in July to -9.3 C (15.26 F) in January. Dunhuang is really hot in summer and bitterly cold in winter. And tourists should bring a warm, winter clothing for use in the morning and evening because of the fluctuation in temperature between day and night. Winter is bitingly cold season here and is not suitable for traveling. March to October is suitable for tourism.
