This is a lovely time for outdoor activities like cycling along the canals or exploring the many gardens and parks. The days are longer, allowing for more sightseeing, and the tourist crowds are generally smaller than in the peak summer season.Early autumn provides pleasant weather as well, with comfortable temperatures for exploring. The changing colours of the foliage add a different kind of beauty to the landscape, especially in the surrounding countryside. This period often sees fewer tourists than the summer, making it ideal for those who prefer a more relaxed experience while still enjoying good weather.
