Writer's Note — James Cooper on July

Shenzhen's coastal position on the Pearl River Delta creates a climate that's slightly moderated by the sea. I've studied the temperature data and found that the city enjoys a longer comfortable season than nearby Guangzhou. The best months for enjoying the city's parks and beaches are October through December, when the humidity subsides and the skies are clearest.
