Copenhagen in September is all about embracing the hygge<\/em> as the days begin to shorten.

While swimming in the sea might be for the brave, the city is still alive with fun in September \u2013 and you can\u2019t miss the Tivoli Gardens. It\u2019s an amusement park that throws concerts and events throughout the summer, closing later this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Croatia is one of the best places to go in September. Step into the fairytale in Dubrovnik, where the intense summer rush should have eased, yet the weather will be beautiful enough for beach days and Old Town exploring.

September is a lovely month to explore Norway. Down south in the capital, Oslo, you can explore the Vigeland Sculpture Park and take icy dips in the fjord (then step into a floating sauna!).

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Japan is surprisingly humid in the summer, which is why it’s one of the best places to go in September \u2013 you\u2019ll be more comfortable experiencing temples, gardens, and traditional culture without the intense summer heat. Kyoto is absolutely beautiful at this time of year, and you\u2019ll catch the tail-end of summer festivals.  The Kiyomizu Temple Seiryu-e Dragon Festival often occurs in mid-September, a captivating display of dragon dances and traditional performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are chasing autumn leaves in Japan<\/a>, you\u2019re best going in mid October \u2013 or add on a solo side trip to the northern island of Hokkaido, where fall foliage starts to pop (particularly in Daisetsuzan National Park) from as early as mid-September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

September temperatures:<\/strong> 21-28\u00b0C (70-82\u00b0F)

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

September still sizzles in the south of Spain, so if you like it hot head to Andalucia and the city of Seville. Here you can wander through the Alc\u00e1zar palace gardens, then reward your efforts with a refreshing tinto de verano<\/em>. By night, experience the fiery rhythms of flamenco performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

September temperatures:<\/strong> 18-31\u00b0C (64-88\u00b0F)
Crowd factor:<\/strong> Moderate
Beach days or autumn colours:<\/strong> Beach days are still very much on the cards. Seville is an inland city, but the Andalusian coast is a short trip away.

September might be the best month to visit Portugal’s southern coast. Here the golden sands of its many, many beaches are framed by dramatic cliffs and the usually cold Atlantic Ocean \u2013 but after the summer heat, the sea is at its warmest and the summer crowds are gone. It\u2019s a great time to enjoy fresh seafood lunches with your toes in the sand, and to explore charming towns like Lagos and Tavira. Nearby there are a dozen or so wineries, so you could even participate in harvest events. It all makes the Algarve one of the best places to go in September.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
