The exact week, not the season.

“The best season” means nothing: a city changes face in a fortnight. We give the week, in dates, where weather, crowds, prices and events line up — 59 city dossiers surveyed month by month, and 181 national records for the rest of the world.

Provenance

Two levels of knowledge, and the page always says which: 59 city dossiers surveyed month by month — temperatures, rain, sunshine, crowds, prices, events — and 181 national records derived from climate and latitude. Week dates are computed for the next occurrence; local events can shift from year to year.
