When to go, and when not to
The best months to visit are May, June, July, and October, which combine some of the year's most reliable sunshine with warm, comfortable temperatures. July and October in particular stand out for pairing strong sunshine hours with pleasant highs, making them attractive windows for outdoor time in the city.
The trade-off is that these same months make up the peak season, so travelers should expect more competition for lodging and possibly higher prices. May and June also bring some of the year's heaviest rainfall, while August, though sunny, brings the highest temperatures, so travelers sensitive to heat or rain may prefer to plan around those specific months even within the broader peak season.
