Summer is the time of hot sun, a varied amount of fresh fruits and, of course, holidays. The latter can be done at home or in the country. Or you can go on a journey that will delight you with new meetings, interesting moments and discoveries.
Where to spend your summer vacation in Russia
There are many places in our country that amaze with beautiful nature or ancient sights. If you can't imagine a vacation without the sea, you should go to the Black Sea coast, where the swimming season starts from late May - early June, depending on weather conditions. Sochi, Anapa, Gelendzhik and many villages are open to tourists. There you can get a job in small hotels, luxury boarding houses or rent a room from private individuals.
When you get tired of swimming at the sea, you can go to Karelia and enjoy the unique and unusually beautiful nature of this region. There you can visit the national museum, see a gorgeous waterfall or conquer mountain peaks. Lake Baikal is no less beautiful in summer, rich not only in the amount of fresh water, but also in a variety of fauna.
You can also spend a pleasant vacation in Kaliningrad, where there is no exhausting summer heat typical for South and Central Russia. There you can enjoy the beautiful natural landscape, visit the sandy Curonian Spit and see old European architecture.
Where to go abroad in summer
It is no less interesting to spend your summer vacation in other countries. Beach lovers are waiting for Turkey, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Spain, the Italian or French coast. But in Egypt at this time it is very hot. For those who like a milder climate, it is best to go to the Baltic countries with the cool Baltic Sea, coniferous forests and white sand.
In Latvia and Lithuania, the sea is pleasant for swimming in just 8-10 weeks, and the best time for a beach holiday there in July.
Well, in order to enjoy a varied excursion program, it is best to go to Europe. Each country there has a rich history, its own traditions and unique architecture. However, in July and August it can also get very hot there, especially in Italy and Spain. You can take a tour of several countries or get to know one country better - it all depends on your desires and capabilities.
Summer in Europe can easily combine a beach holiday and excursions.
In summer, it is also good to visit Japan, where high technology and ancient traditions are harmoniously intertwined. Japanese cities are good because there you can find entertainment for every taste - from visiting modern clubs to relaxing in a quiet beautiful park, which allows you to escape from the hustle and bustle. Well, if funds allow, you can walk around America. To get to know this country at least a little, it is worth taking a ride through several states, and even better - across the entire continent. However, the southern United States is quite hot in summer.
