Travelling doesn’t have to be hard, especially if you’re smart about when to travel and where you want to go. Springtime, of course, is the perfect time to visit many places around the world, as the weather is generally pleasant and many locales are coming out of their dark hibernations and into the light. Here’s our list of the top five places to visit in springtime.
New York City:
One of the best places to go is New York City. The spring weather there is not too hot and not too cold, which makes it perfect for exploring. There are many different things you can do around the city. You could visit a museum or an art gallery, take a stroll through Central Park, or just walk through Times Square. All these are very fun ways to spend time during springtime. Another great thing about this time of year is that all the flowers start blooming.
Los Angeles:
If you’re looking for a good time and want to explore the California coast, Los Angeles is the place for you. The city has an endless supply of museums, parks, and theatres that are all within reach with your rental car. Plus, LA is home to some of the best Mexican food in the country–definitely not a bad thing. If you’re looking for some more excitement or road trips up north, Sacramento has plenty of cool things worth exploring too.
San Francisco:
One of the most beautiful places to visit this spring is San Francisco, California. The city is home to many attractions and landmarks including Lombard Street, Pier 39, Alcatraz Island and Golden Gate Park. But if you are visiting for a weekend and want to experience all that San Francisco has to offer, be sure not to miss Fisherman’s Wharf. It is one of the best tourist spots in the area with delicious food like fresh seafood and crab as well as souvenir shops.
Miami:
Take a stroll on one of the most famous beaches in the world, marvel at the stunning architecture in Miami’s Art Deco District, or take part in one of many exciting festivals. The City of Miami has it all.
A quick jog around Bal Harbour Shops will keep your heart rate up and give you access to luxury brands like Cartier, Chanel and Prada. There are also plenty of great dining options for you to choose from including award-winning chef Michelle Bernstein’s namesake restaurant. Shopping will never be the same after visiting Bal Harbour Shops.
Chicago:
Chicago is a city that has something for everyone. From live theatre, world-class museums and the best restaurants, Chicago has something for every palate. During this time of year the windy city’s outdoor activities are in full swing. You can head over to Wrigleyville and take part in some ice skating or visit Lincoln Park Zoo where you’ll be able to see animals like seals, zebras, giraffes and many more. And if you’re looking for something with more culture than the Art Institute of Chicago might be your place. Here you’ll find everything from paintings by Monet, Van Gogh or Renoir to mediaeval European art or ancient artefacts from Egypt
