Edinburgh travel times

The best time to travel: May and June. Edinburgh has a hazy climate with lots of rain and snow, and is also known as the "Old Fog City". All year round, the weather is sunny only in summer, while the other three seasons are dominated by rain and snow. Affected by the marine climate, the annual temperature ranges from a minimum of 0℃ to a maximum of 30℃. Winter is very humid with mixed rain and snow, making it not suitable for travel. The most beautiful time of the year is May and June, when all kinds of colorful flowers and plants bloom together. Especially in June, many new people get married. Although it is sometimes rainy in Edinburgh at this time, the climate is the most pleasant, with the average temperature between 16-20°C, making it the most comfortable season of the year. Whether indoors or outdoors, it can bring tourists a relaxing and comfortable feeling. The next more ideal days are July and August, because Edinburgh has the best weather in these two months of the year, with long days, many sunny days, and average temperatures between 25-30°C. Although it is a hotspot, it rarely rains, making it perfect for travel. Because of the Edinburgh International Arts Festival in August, July-August is the real peak tourist season in Edinburgh. Air tickets and accommodation prices will rise. In addition to the above two periods, you can also travel to Edinburgh in September and April-May. Although the weather has begun to cool down in September, the autumn air is crisp and the rain is not too much. As long as you wear more clothes, it will not be a big problem. From April to May, there is a lot of rain, which may affect outdoor tourism, but the green grassland just after the rain is still more attractive, and the temperature is between 10-15℃.
