When is it Best to go Sightseeing?
It is no secret that different sights are different at different times of the year and open to new, unusual tourists. Does this mean that you can travel at any time of the year? Or is there still a tourist season when trips are especially good?
Yes, natural attractions at any time of the year, please with their feedback. Take mountains, for example (the Carpathians, for example). In winter – cold and luxurious, with snowy, inaccessible passes. In the spring-like an awakened monster: green, with noisy rivers and currents. In summer – admirable (but dangerous because of their flooding), a sea of living creatures, with colorful valleys, relatively “passable” path. In the autumn, somewhere else – captivating with the riot of colors and falling asleep, cold and silent a little later.
You can see almost the same picture in other natural attractions. So, arboretums (especially those made with the mind and equipped with caring and knowledgeable hands) are good in any season – most of the plants bloom in it. The picture changes not only month by month, but day by day! So whenever there is time and opportunity, it is appropriate to visit such places of interest. But what about cities, museums, castles, and other “man-made” attractions?
Winter
Snow-covered Lviv, Carpathian ski resorts, and forgotten villages with their souvenir markets, traditional folk cuisine, and snowy passes – you’ll never see it unless you risk winter in western Ukraine.
I love Lviv at any time of the year. However, in the winter (and especially at Christmas), you have the opportunity to see something unusual. The city comes back to life, and the clothes are on, the mamma appears in the streets, carols can be heard everywhere, a special mood reigns in the streets, birth scenes are everywhere.
Lviv tsukerni will not only present the aroma of coffee and its sweet taste – but it will also present a special Christmas mood. Market Square is also nice and crowded but has a special mood. It is on the faces of incoming passengers, in front of the furnished houses, and on the spectacular trams and crowds of mummies sent for the holidays.
So, is winter the ideal time to travel?
Spring
Blooming Krakow, the red roofs of Prague washed away in the spring rain, matching the local festival or city day with flower arrows under the Kamentez-Podolsky, Southern Bug, curved willow. You can only see these images of nature and the awakening of cities in the spring.
And suppose you can deny yourself the joy of planting potatoes in your own country, go to May Kebabs with friends or light your first tele cell in Tunisia-Morocco-Egypt. In that case, the freshness of nature in spring and the unique architectural patterns will enrich your soul with an unforgettable impression.
And also, the dendroparks are especially beautiful at this time of year – it seems that everything blooms, even according to the plan of the Almighty; it should not bloom! (I recommend visiting the Nikitsky Botanical Gardens in Crimea, near Ilter, and the Sofiyevka Arboretum in Oman.)
Summer
Dusty Paris, Sleepless Lviv… Agree – Joy for the Connectors. At this point, if you want to see the red-hot sidewalk, only if there is surf in the ocean, the sound of the resort, lots of fruit, beer, and champagne… you can also find lots of attractions near the sea (both ours and overseas). (And, by the way, those in which resort, you can often only see the guide in the high holiday season).
So, Crimean canyons, dolphins in Balaclava, caves, Sevastopol bases, and much more to see in the Crimean summer vacation. There’s a subtraction here as well (excluding crowds) – a lot of such trips are memorized a few pages from a public guidebook, guided by yesterday’s schoolgirls, in their content, a little bit of a little bit, and basically include transportation. But for a large number of tourists, it is enough, and those who are not enough will find the “right” guide and more detailed information, including the Internet, and find everything you want.
For example, did you visit Maximilian Voloshin’s house in Cocktail in the summer? Then you remember that in the early twentieth century, Cocktable was talking about such an inspiring guide as if he were reading a Silver Age poem – with pain, with passion, spellbound. And several times a week, he led a group of “initiates” to watch the sunset at Voloshin’s tomb in the mountains. Agree – you can only survive this summer.
Autumn
The heat is already asleep, and the leaves are satisfied with its many colors. Most of the summer activities are still available. However, the crowds of “summer” holidaymakers have already spread to their town and sat at their desks and work offices. When will you be able to see such pictures? Of course, in September.
You can simply bathe in the open thermal springs of Miskolk, Hungary, or in the Sejeneni bath in Budapest at a temperature of 15 to 20 °C! This is an indescribable joy! And all around – above the “eternal” game of chess, silence, and peace, the “golden leaves,” the “eternal” grandparents, and as if eternity embraces you with its ignorant hand.
And the sidewalks of ancient Sejantre and Sexferver are no longer red-hot – you can wander the long winding streets, sit on Ezer benches and admire the local festivities or taste the local wines in the Beauty Valley.
Have you ever seen how the eternal Danube matches the colorful coast from the roof of the Viceroy’s castle? I’m sure only autumn can give you such an unusual gift in everyday things! Even Lake Balton, which involves tourists in the summer, and even in September, Tihani Abbey, Marinas on the cozy coast, Peace, and Eternity on the shores of autumn are two associations that I remember when I think of Hungary in September. So when is it best to go on a sightseeing tour? No answer. The main thing to understand is that it is worth going on tours! Because no internet and no, not even the most colorful, the guide gives you a palette of impressions that you will experience during this tour. Picking beer and wine at a coastal caf is not the same as sunburn and headaches, which you will have forever.
