Climate & Weather - Vietnam Travel Guide - Vietnam Weather Information

Climate

Summer

Autumn

Winter

In general, in Vietnam there are two seasons, the cold season occurs from November to April and the hot season from May to October. The difference in temperature between the two seasons in southern is almost unnoticeable, averaging 3ºC.
