How The Month Feels

How to do it

A few things worth planning ahead

01

Plan cue

Prioritize the three highest-popularity landmark stops early in the day to beat the busiest periods.

02

Plan cue

Use indoor museums as “reset” blocks on rainy days or later afternoons.

03

Plan cue

Plan your itinerary around both outdoor (3) and indoor (2) options so you’re not dependent on clear weather.

Practical trip tips

Dress in layers you can take on and off easily, because the city will usually feel different in the morning and after sunset.
Comfortable shoes will matter more than extra gear, because most visitors will spend the best parts of the day on foot.
Leave some breathing room in the itinerary, because this is a good month to follow the mood of the city rather than rushing it.
