Travel Tips for Yiwu
With weather that is neither cold nor too hot, the months of Spring and Autumn are the best time to visit Yiwu. Another reason why it is the best time is that during April and October the Grand China Yiwu International Commodities Fair is on. The summer months are also a reasonably good time to visit but it can be much busier and also a chance of Thunderstorms in the afternoon, not to mention the possible typhoons!
Yiwu is not one of the cheapest cities in China when it comes to accommodation and dining out, there are definitely cheaper destinations. However, what you over spend to stay there, you save on amazing bargains in the shopping district. On average a meal in a mid range restaurant will cost US$25 for two people and a night b&b starts from US$50. Still cheaper than European hotspots though! Guided tours and activities are well priced.
Most foreigners needed a visa when travelling to China so be sure to organise this in advance. When travelling, it is best to travel by car with a guide as Yiwu can be confusing and crowded a lot of the time.
