Prague
#5 in Best Places to Visit in September
Vacationing in Prague is like stepping into a fairy tale, no matter what time of year you visit. While snow-capped Prague is magical and summer is perfectly pleasant temperature-wise, September is the sweet travel spot, especially for those looking to sightsee. Not only will you beat freezing winter weather, but you will also encounter fewer tourists at normally crowded attractions, such as Old Town Square (where you’ll find impressive historical sights like the Prague Astronomical Clock) and the Charles Bridge (which is lined with statues honoring 30 saints).
Vancouver
#6 in Best Places to Visit in September
Vancouver’s abundance of outdoor attractions makes September the best time to admire its Pacific Northwestern topography. A walk through leafy Stanley Park – which features 1,000 acres, more than 16 miles of forest trails and the longest uninterrupted waterfront path in the world – or across famous Capilano Suspension Bridge – an architectural marvel that sits 230 feet above the ground – will no doubt yield awe over Canada’s natural beauty. Not only that, but daytime temperatures in the 60s will be perfect for hiking through Vancouver’s surrounding mountains, including Grouse Mountain (a traveler favorite).
