If you reside in Southwest China, then Guizhou is the perfect option.It's famous for its ecological and geological richness and if you are into wild fun and adventure, this is your best bet. It is one of the ideal places for summer too. For example, Guizhou’s Bijie offers respite from the summer heat. The city's deputy mayor, Wang Yimin, says Bijie is a perfect place to escape summer heat and enjoy the ethnic group's culture. The authorities are also upgrading facilities in some scenic spots to improve the visitor experience.
In summer, the average temperature in the city is 21 C because it is surrounded by mountains and has a lot of greenery.
Since 2013, Feixiong Airport in the city has flights to 16 Chinese cities including Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chongqing. It takes two and a half hours to fly to Bijie from Beijing, with a flight every day except Saturday. It takes about eight hours from Beijing to the provincial capital, Guiyang, by high-speed train, which is about 230 kilometers from Bijie.
