When to go
It's not easy to find the best time to visit Hong Kong.
Winter can be a good period, although the sky is often cloudy in the second part; moreover, it can be windy, and sometimes, though rarely, it can be a little cold.
Spring is pleasantly warm, but it's also cloudy, and when the sun becomes a little more frequent, the rains begin as well, then, by May, it becomes muggy and there is some risk (though still low) of typhoons.
In theory, autumn is the best season, but in October, a typhoon can still arrive, while in November, there can be the first cool and windy days, and sometimes, at the end of the month, it can already be a little cold.
All in all, the best times are from
mid-March to mid-April and from mid-October to late November.

In
winter: bring spring/autumn clothes, a sweatshirt or sweater, a jacket, a raincoat or umbrella, and a hat for colder days.
