Quick answer
Spring and autumn are usually the easiest seasons for Beijing sightseeing, with comfortable walking conditions and clearer route planning.
April–May and September–October
Usually easier for long walking days, outdoor sights and a balanced route.
Peak summer heat or the coldest winter days if long outdoor walks are central to the trip.
Not impossible—just worth changing the order, pace or indoor balance.
Keep it flexible
Layers, comfortable walking shoes and sun protection; add a light jacket for spring and autumn evenings.
What the weather changes
Weather should shape the order and pace of your days, not decide the whole trip by itself.
