What to wear and bring

Early October
At this time when the hot season is on, breathable cotton and linen clothing is suggested such as shirts and long skirts; while T-shirts are also good, they are very allowing for heat dissipation to be the best. Intense sunlight glaring down on Wuhan during summer makes a pair of sunglasses, a sun hat, and sunscreen essential for protecting the skin and eyes from UV damage.

Mid-October
It is wise to add one light jacket or long-sleeved shirt to deal with the difference between day and night temperatures. When traveling, carry a portable umbrella or raincoat to cope with the changeable weather, and don't forget to pack sunglasses and a wide-brimmed sun hat to protect your eyes when the sun is out.

Late October
Since Wuhan is a city that has much humidity and great morning to evening temperature differences, wearing a thin jacket or long-sleeved sweater in choosing your attire when you're about to anticipate morning and evening chillness is best. You may also bring an umbrella or raincoat as part of being ready against expected rains.

To sum up, bring layers of clothing and be prepared to change according to the weather in Wuhan to fully enjoy that National Day holiday.
