Autumn in Hong Kong

This is the season of the year that everybody is waiting for, it is by far the nicest time of the year as the sky clears up -- blue skies are visible again (well, if you ignore the pollution spoiling the first 20 degrees from the horizon) and it is cooler yet still bright.

Despite the official Lunar calendar telling us that autumn is mid way in late September or early October (because we have "Mid Autumn Festival", aka Lantern Festival aka burning wax festival!) in reality it isn't until late September that Autumn really starts from a weather perspective.

This is peak season to visit Hong Kong, particularly if you are from Europe and may find the summer temperature and humidity unbearable.
