Climate chart - Hue
The climate of Huế is tropical, with a relatively cool winter from December to February and a hot, muggy summer from May to September. There is a rainy season from September to December. We are in the rainiest part of the coast of Vietnam, which fully receives the rains brought by the northeast monsoon. Instead, as in the rest of the central coast, the summer monsoon brings little rain.
The city is located 10 km (6 mi) away from the north-central coast of Vietnam, at 16 degrees north latitude, and is crossed by the Perfume River. Huế was the imperial capital of Vietnam under the Nguyễn dynasty (1802–1945).

In winter, from December to February, and sometimes in March, there can be cool periods, in which the maximum temperature remains around 15/17 °C (59/63 °F). In January 2016 there was a day with a maximum of 13 °C (55.5 °F), while in December 1999 the minimum dropped to 9 °C (49 °F).
From March to October, on the other hand, there can be heat waves, and in particular, from April to August, i.e. before the rainy season, the temperature can reach 40/42 °C (104/108 °F).

Huế

The city can be hit by typhoons, the tropical cyclones of Southeast Asia, and it should be remembered that the coast is the area most at risk. Typically, typhoons pass in this area from late April to late June (more rarely and generally not strong) and from the beginning of September to 10 December.

Best Time



The best time to visit Huế is from late January to mid-March. The last rains associated with the monsoon occur in the first three weeks of January, which are not abundant in this period, but in some years they can be.
Starting from mid-March it can get very hot. From May to August, the rains are not abundant and the sun shines quite often, but it is often very hot. However, one can find refuge on the beaches of the area.
