Hefei, Anhui Province’s capital in eastern China, embodies a fusion of history, culture, and modernity. Its transformation from ancient origins to a bustling urban hub mirrors China’s evolution through the ages. Positioned along the picturesque Huai River, Hefei’s strategic location historically facilitated trade, echoing its role in ancient China’s commerce and cultural exchange. The city’s cultural tapestry is woven with threads of antiquity, evident in landmarks like Xiaoyaojin Park, tracing back to the storied Three Kingdoms era, and Baohe Park’s ancient temples nestled amidst lush greenery. These sites serve as tangible links to China’s rich historical legacy, inviting visitors to explore the nation’s ancient past within Hefei’s modern landscape. Hefei’s contemporary vibrancy stems from its status as an educational and technological nucleus, epitomized by institutions like the University of Science and Technology of China. This academic prowess echoes China’s historical emphasis on scholarship and innovation, driving the city’s emergence as a leader in the country’s high-tech industry. Amidst Hefei’s urban sprawl and modern infrastructure, echoes of ancient China resonate, preserving cultural heritage amidst progress. Swan Lake, a serene urban oasis, offers tranquil retreats reminiscent of traditional Chinese gardens, symbolizing harmony between nature and urban life.

In June, the average daily temperature in Hefei is around 27°C, with a minimum of 23°C and a maximum of 38°C. Usually, it’s the monsoon season at the end of June, which brings lots of rainfall in Hefei. It is recommended to wear lightweight and breathable clothing during the day, such as short-leeved shirts and shorts. However, it’s also essential to carry an umbrella or raincoat for sudden downpours.
