The climate here in Gansu is a typical continental climate. Winter is cold and everything is bleak, making it not suitable for traveling. There is a lot of sand and dust in spring, so it is not suitable. Therefore, the suitable season for traveling is summer and autumn. Qinghai has a high altitude and alpine climate, so only seven or eight months a year are suitable for tourism. Moreover, during this period, most parts of the country are hot, while Qinghai is cool, just in time for summer vacation.
