Wearing Hanfu while traveling is such a fun experience, but comfort is key! You don’t want to be dragging around heavy layers or dealing with impractical sleeves while sightseeing.
Here are some good travel-friendly Hanfu options:
· Song-style Beizi – Super light, breezy, and easy to layer. It’s perfect for warm weather, and you can wear it over a simple dress or modern clothes for a subtle Hanfu look.
· Ming-style Aoqun – A good balance between elegance and comfort. The straight skirt is easy to walk in, and you can pair it with a short top for a stylish yet practical outfit.
· Hanfu-inspired outfits – If you don’t want to go full Hanfu, you can mix traditional elements with modern clothing—like a Hanfu-style top with jeans or a Mamianqun with a simple sweater. This keeps the cultural feel while making it easier to move around.
· Comfy shoes are a must – Traditional Hanfu shoes are pretty, but they’re not always the best for long walks. If you’re traveling, opt for comfortable flats or sneakers that match your outfit.
Another thing to keep in mind—Hanfu tends to attract attention, especially in touristy areas. Be prepared for people to ask for photos or strike up conversations!
