Linfen has basically a continental climate that is characterised by long, cold, dry winters and short, hot, rainy summers. Spring is fairly unpredictable, with sharp daily temperature swings and frequent sand storms, while autumn is fairly mild. The best time to visit is usually between April and early October, however in any season it is wise to be prepared for the sand storms that sometimes sweep through this area.

Hukou Waterfalls is the grandest yellow waterfall in the world.  It is located in the Qinjin (Shaanxi-Shanxi) Gorge on the middle reaches of the Yellow River and 45 kilometers away from the Jixian Country, Shanxi Province. To the west of the waterfall is the Yichuan County of Shaanxi Province. Waterfalls gush down into the roaring water of the river through the precipitous rocks in the abrupt canyon. The magnificent spectacle makes the waterfall the second largest, after the largest Huangguoshu Waterfall in Guizhou.
