Spring (March to May, shoulder season) is mild and bright, with average temperatures around 10–20°C (50–68°F). Trees and gardens come into bloom, parks feel lively, and outdoor events begin, making it a pleasant time for walking tours and spending long days exploring different districts.
Summer (June to August, peak season) is warm and humid, with temperatures typically between 22–30°C (72–86°F). Longer daylight hours, city festivals, and evening events on rooftops and along the waterfront create a lively atmosphere, while air-conditioned shopping centres and museums offer comfortable indoor breaks.
Autumn (September to November, shoulder season) brings comfortable weather, with temperatures around 12–22°C (54–72°F). Clear days and changing foliage in parks and nearby hillsides provide scenic backdrops for city walks, photography, and day trips to surrounding areas.
Winter (December to February, low season) is cool but generally dry, with average temperatures of 2–10°C (36–50°F). Illuminations, seasonal menus, and clear skies give the city a crisp, calm feel, and it is a good time to enjoy hot dishes, indoor attractions, and views of snow-tipped mountains on the horizon.
