For those who spent the whole summer in Moscow and worked non-stop, we recommend going to Dubai. Now there is the summer that any resident of the metropolis dreams of, who spent all the summer months wearing a coat and watching the rain outside the window. Throughout September, the temperature in Dubai varies from +34 to + 36, and there are no cloudy or partly cloudy days on the calendar!

Dubai is also attractive from a visa point of view. Firstly,

From February 1, visas to the UAE became free, which means the trip became cheaper by another $75.

Secondly, you no longer need to apply for a visa in advance, so you can go to Dubai even this evening, you just need to buy a ticket.

In addition to skyscrapers, shopping, luxurious beaches of the Persian Gulf and water in which you splash like warm milk (or soup - but then it’s already unpleasant), in Dubai you can immerse yourself in the world of contemporary art or pay attention to Muslim fashion - over the past few years a lot of interesting things appeared here.

Montenegro


Varvara Gertier/RIA Novosti

You can and should go to Montenegro in the fall - when the temperature does not go beyond +35, touching wilting begins to appear in nature, the danger of encountering a forest fire disappears, the beaches become freer, and figs and grapes appear in the markets (in July there are also figs , but you didn’t make it there in July?). The absence of oppressive heat means that you won’t lie helplessly in a hammock all day long and will be able to travel around the country, which, in addition to the beaches of Budva and the sunsets of Kotor, has a lot to offer.

For example, Cetinje is the cultural capital of Montenegro, to which no one goes of their own free will in the summer, because they really don’t want to move away from the sea. Here you can go to the National Museum of Montenegro and the Cetinje Monastery, see the oldest libraries in the country, find out what students of the Faculty of Fine Arts and the Faculty of Drama, as well as the Music Academy of the University of Montenegro look like, and walk through parks in English and French style.

In general, in Cetinje in the fall you can stop feeling like a sweaty vegetable and learn something about the culture and history of Montenegro,

because this is not just a resort, but a city where Prince Ivan I Cernoevich founded his residence in 1482, and in 1838 the first secular residence of Montenegrin rulers was built by the beloved fighter for the independence of the country, Peter II Njegos.

Agadir, Morocco

You do not need a visa to travel to Morocco. You can swim and sunbathe in Agadir throughout September; the air temperature throughout the month will not drop below + 27. However, in Agadir you can not only sunbathe.

For example, you can visit the Domaine Villate Limoune wild animal ranch, where porcupines, kangaroos, camels, and peacocks live. Or head to the city's main market, Souk el Had, where you can buy everything from babushka slippers, pottery and stoles to oils, olives, dates and oranges.

Nice, France

If the heat makes you dizzy, and the word “tanning” means “premature aging,” go to the Cote d'Azur in September-October. The sun is no longer burning here, but the weather is still good - the temperature ranges from + 22 to + 25. You can still swim in this weather, although there is already something to do in Nice. For example, you can go to the Museum of Fine Arts or take a walk in the Botanical Garden, where more than 3.5 thousand plants are presented. For lovers of walking, we recommend exploring the old town (here, by the way, you can also visit the opera), and for fans of archeology, stop by the Semje quarter and see

an arena for gladiator fights, an antique bath complex and the remains of ancient buildings.

A holiday in Nice is also suitable for shopaholics - the range of boutiques on Rue de France is in no way inferior to the world's fashion capitals.

The biggest advantage of a holiday in Nice is the opportunity to make your holiday even more eventful by going to nearby Cannes and Monaco. The cities are only 30 minutes away from each other. There will be enough impressions from what you see for your entire vacation: casinos, premium car showrooms, yachts at arm's length, the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival and many Michelin-starred restaurants.

We recommend that nature lovers visit the Arboretum; here you can experience summer to the fullest. Or go see the waterfalls. There are Agur waterfalls to choose from - the most popular among tourists, Azhek waterfall - these are the two most beautiful waterfalls, and the highest waterfall - Orekhovsky (28 m). A one-day trip to Abkhazia (travel time will take about 3 hours) or to the mountains can diversify your trip - in summer Krasnaya Polyana looks even better than during the ski season.

A snowball fight, the opportunity to roll around in a snowdrift or build a snowman, hot chocolate, warm and cozy clothes, the holiday season... There are many reasons to love cold weather. Winter is a wonderful time of year. You can take a break from the heat and scorching sun, wear comfortable clothes and spend time with your family. However, not everyone likes winter. In some countries, this season is a real problem; residents there will have to wait a long time for the sun. These are the coldest countries in the world, where you can get frostbite or get a bad cold. What corners of the planet are these? Where is winter especially harsh? Here is a list of the ten coolest states.

Estonia

Estonia is a small country that many people know nothing about. However, it could become famous just for how cold it gets there. The country is located next to Finland and the Baltic Sea. It is not as cold here as in other countries on the list, however, the temperature does not allow you to comfortably spend time outside during the winter season. Even at other times of the year it is rarely too high, so Estonia can truly be called a cold region. However, this is a very beautiful country, so it’s definitely worth a visit. If you are afraid of frost, just choose the summer months.

Finland

This beautiful and interesting country has the coldest and harshest winters on the planet. In winter, the temperature here can easily drop to twenty degrees below zero. This winter lasts more than four months a year. Living in Finland is not easy because snowfall is almost always accompanied by strong winds, which makes life very difficult. The temperatures here in summer are quite pleasant and you can have a good time. However, if you want to experience vivid impressions, you can go to this country in winter and get to know the true cold from your own experience.

Mongolia

This Asian country has fairly cool weather. The average temperature in Mongolia is zero degrees Celsius. The temperature rises only from April to October, and in other months the frost can reach twenty degrees. The weather is worst in January and February, when temperatures drop to their lowest point, making life very difficult for Mongolia's residents. However, the untouched nature of this region has its own charm, making it worth visiting.

Iceland

Many people associate the name of this country with cold, and for good reason. This is a Scandinavian country where the average temperature is below zero. Only a few summer months are warm, but even then it never gets too hot or too sunny. The country is frozen almost all year round. The record temperature for Iceland is about forty degrees below zero. Despite this, tourists flock to Iceland all year round - this is a state with a unique culture and incredible nature. Here you can see geysers, northern lights, whales - all this is worth not being afraid of the cold.

Greenland

This state belongs to Denmark, however, it is an autonomous country located on the largest island in the world. In addition, it is also a very cold country. Greenland is covered in ice and receives very little sun, making it incredibly cold. Even in summer it never gets above seven degrees Celsius, so we can say that winter never ends here. If you like the cold season, you would like Greenland, but for most people living in such conditions is quite difficult.

USA

Surprisingly, even the United States was included in the list of the coldest countries. There are also very hot places here - the hottest on the planet, for example, Death Valley. However, due to its enormous size, America is also home to the coldest temperatures. The state of Alaska is especially cold, where winter temperatures drop to thirty degrees below zero. Due to this cold, you may encounter various skin problems and colds.

Kazakhstan

This country is one of the coldest in the world. Kazakhstan is located in Asia, next to Russia. In winter there are very low temperatures. In summer the weather is quite pleasant and the temperature does not rise too high, but in winter it is incredibly cold. In addition, this is a mountainous country - and living in the mountains in winter is even more difficult. The difficult economic situation makes life even more difficult. In addition, snowfall here is often replaced by rain, making such conditions especially difficult to cope with.

Canada

The country neighboring the United States is one of the coldest places on our planet. Canada has a similar climate to the United States, but its geographic location further north makes winters colder. The northern and eastern regions of Canada are characterized by winters lasting five months, temperatures can drop below forty degrees. Thanks to modern technology, cities have the infrastructure to help people not suffer too much from the cold. Outside the city, you can feel all the harsh nature of Canadian nature. If you want to have an unusual experience, you should definitely visit here in winter.

Russia

Russia is one of the coldest countries in the world - in some regions there are sub-zero temperatures even in summer. There are areas where there is sun only two months a year. In winter it is colder than forty degrees below zero. In addition, there are heavy snowfalls here. In such regions, surviving in winter is a real challenge. Nevertheless, many people even like this weather and do not consider it a serious problem at all.

Antarctic

There is no doubt: Antarctica is a very cold region. It is located at the pole, there is practically no sun here. No one lives here because the temperature is too harsh. The cold record is almost ninety degrees below zero! It is impossible to even imagine life in such conditions. Antarctica is considered a real snow desert. There are only scientists there, who need to act with extreme caution so as not to suffer from the cold.

Whether we like it or not, winter comes every year, and for many of us that means cold, snow and a lack of sun and daylight. But don’t worry, no matter what month is on the calendar, somewhere on Earth it’s still warm and summer!

Here are the places you need to spend all 12 months of the year to catch the perfect summer!

January in the Virgin Islands

Here you can try scuba diving, learn how to sail a yacht, or just sunbathe in the sun. Whatever your preference, the Virgin Islands are ideal to visit in January. Immediately after hurricane season, temperatures tend to level off and the islands are bathed in gentle waves, warming sunshine and fresh breezes. The perfect way to get rid of winter blues!

February in Thailand

From the vibrant rainforests and rich culture of the north to the sandy beaches and warm waters of the south, Thailand has everything you need for the perfect holiday.

Visit the temples in Chiang Mai, stop at the picturesque Phi Phi Islands or go on an unforgettable shopping spree in Bangkok.

You can stop at small villages along the way to chat with the locals, or visit a huge elephant sanctuary. And if during February you get tired of the constant adventures lurking around every corner, you can relax and unwind on the beach or in a cozy bungalow.

March in Dubai

March is a great time to visit Dubai before the sands heat up and tourists flood the beaches and streets. From unique culture and architecture, fashion and shopping to beautiful white sandy beaches and azure waters, Dubai has something to offer every visitor.

Besides the ideal weather, March is filled with events, exhibitions and festivals.

April in Peru

April is a great month to visit Peru. Just after the rainy season ending in March and just before the very busy tourist season starting in June, you will find Peru calm, quiet and sunny.

The temperature is almost perfect, despite the occasional rain. In such weather, it is equally comfortable to go sunbathing on the beach in Lima or embark on a difficult journey to Machu Picchu.

May in Bali

May is not the hottest and not the most popular month among tourists and vacationers in Bali. Bali attracts a huge number of guests with its luxurious beaches, luxurious hotels and bungalows and extremely affordable prices. In addition, not only lovers of a relaxing holiday on the beach will enjoy their stay in Bali, it is a paradise for scuba divers, both beginners and professionals, for surfers and snorkelers.

June on the Cote d'Azur

The sun-drenched coastline of the Côte d'Azur in the south of France is a real paradise, especially in June. Activities and activities such as sailing, golfing, sea fishing, cycling or relaxing on the beach fill the days from dawn to dusk, while gourmet restaurants and an incredible, vibrant nightlife make the evenings and nights unforgettable.

July in Hawaii

The weather in the Hawaiian Islands is most easily described as “summer all year round,” but July is especially beautiful. In addition, spending the summer in Hawaii is much cheaper than the popular winter season.

Enjoy long days of sunshine, ideal temperatures and the unique culture of the islands, each with something unique to offer.

August in the Canary Islands

The Canary Islands, located off the west coast of Africa, have long been known as the “Islands of Eternal Spring,” and with good reason. Not only is the weather perfect all year round, but the Canary Islands are also one of the sunniest places on the planet.

September in Croatia

September ends the velvet tourism season in Croatia and is an excellent month for an exciting vacation in this amazing European country. The sun is not so hot, the beaches have calmed down a little, and the crowds of tourists have gone home.

September is ideal not only for a beach holiday, but also for walking around cities, traveling to the mountains or swimming among the islands.

For gourmets and lovers of luxury holidays, Croatian Istria is perfect, rich in wine, truffles and magnificent seaside towns and villas.

October in California

Whether you prefer the hip streets of San Francisco, the glitz and glitz of Hollywood, or the surf-perfect waves of the sunny San Diego coast, October is one of the best months for a California vacation. In California, you can enjoy Indian summer until Halloween, and on October 31, dress up in a strange costume and take part in one of the most spectacular traditions.

November in Jordan

From the Wonders of the World to the shores of the Dead Sea and even the oldest bar in the world, Jordan has a long list of attractions in store for visitors to visit, and November is the perfect time to head there. The weather in Jordan actually depends on the altitude, so if you plan to go to the mountains, prepare for a drop in temperature.

December in Australia

When it’s winter everywhere, it’s real summer in Australia, why isn’t it paradise? The Australian summer is full of sun, beaches and surfing. You can relax on Bondi Beach in Sydney, explore the shops and restaurants of Melbourne or visit the Great Barrier Reef. There's plenty to do in Australia in December, but the best time to be there is on New Year's Eve: the idea of ​​ringing in the New Year with a beach barbecue can be a welcome change of scenery.

Domestic winters are harsh, frosty and very long. It is at this time of year that we are so drawn to where it is warm and the sun shines brightly. Do you know which country in the world is the hottest? In which cities on the planet does the air temperature rise to unimaginable levels? You will find answers to these questions in our article.

Climate records of the planet

When in the summer the air warms up to +30 degrees, we languish from the heat and pray to the Almighty for cool rain. But there are hotter places on our planet, where temperature values ​​can reach +40...50 o Celsius. What are these places? And where is the hottest country in the world located? Let's find out.

In meteorology, there is such a thing as “absolute temperature maximum.” This is the highest air temperature recorded at a certain point on Earth in the entire history of observations. This is one of the main indicators that allows us to identify the 10 hottest countries (or cities) in the world. So, for example, for Moscow this value is +38.2 o C, but for Athens (the hottest capital of Europe) - +48.0 o C.

For quite a long time, the record temperature for the globe was considered to be +58.2 o C. It was recorded back in 1922 in the desert of Libya, not far from the city of Tripoli. However, in 2012, the World Meteorological Organization refuted these figures. According to satellite monitoring of the earth's surface, the absolute maximum air temperature was recorded in 2005 in the Dasht-Lut area in southwestern Iran (+70.7 o C).

So where is the hottest country in the world located? And how many degrees does the thermometer show on its territory? Read about this later in the article.

The hottest countries in the world: TOP 10

There are many truly “hot” states in the world. Most often, they are located in equatorial and tropical latitudes. After all, it is these parts of the globe that receive the greatest amount of solar heat per year. But which country is the hottest in the world? To be called such, it must have high temperatures throughout the entire calendar year.

So, the ten hottest countries in the world look like this:

  • Ethiopia (10th place).
  • Indonesia (9th place).
  • Jamaica (8th place).
  • India (7th place).
  • Malaysia (6th place).
  • Vietnam (5th place).
  • Bahrain (4th place).
  • UAE (3rd place).
  • Botswana (2nd place).
  • Qatar (1st place).
  • Dubai, UAE).
  • Baghdad (Iraq).
  • Kuwait City (Kuwait).
  • Riyadh (Saudi Arabia).
  • Ahvaz (Iran).

Ethiopia

Ethiopia is located in eastern Africa. Since the country is located in near-equatorial latitudes, it is not much cooler here in winter than in summer. The climate of the eastern regions of Ethiopia is extremely dry and hot.

Indonesia

Average temperature of the warm season: +31 o C.

There is no division into seasons as such in Indonesia. Annual fluctuations in temperature values ​​here do not exceed 3-5 degrees. The Indonesian heat is significantly complicated by high air humidity due to the proximity of the open ocean. However, in the mountainous regions of this island country it is quite possible to freeze even in the hottest months of the year.

Jamaica

Average temperature of the warm season: +31 o C.

Jamaica's climate is tropical maritime, very humid. It is just as hot here in winter as in summer. But the distribution of precipitation is strictly seasonal. Most of the rain falls in autumn. According to historical reports, the first European colonizers in Jamaica had a hard time. It took a long time for Europeans to adapt to the unusual Jamaican climate.

India

India is an original and colorful country, one of the most popular among tourists. It is reliably protected from the harsh northern winds by the chain of the Himalayan mountains. But hot air from the Thar Desert spreads freely throughout almost its entire territory. Unlike all of the above countries, India experiences some seasonality in the climate: in winter, average air temperatures here drop to +15 degrees.

Malaysia

Average temperature of the warm season: +32 o C.

The Asian state of Malaysia is in the middle of our ranking. The climate here is humid (due to the proximity of the sea) and hot (due to the proximity to the equator). However, the Malaysian heat is slightly “diluted” by the monsoons, which bring heavy and prolonged rains in spring and autumn.

Vietnam

A similar situation is observed in Vietnam: during the transition seasons of the year, the monsoons bring with them precipitation and, often, typhoons. But the winter in this country is quite dry, even compared to the hot summer. Overall, Vietnam is the hottest country in Southeast Asia.

Bahrain

Average temperature of the warm season: +33 o C.

The tiny kingdom of Bahrain is located on an island archipelago in the Persian Gulf. The abundance of tropical deserts minimizes the amount of precipitation and, as a result, air humidity levels. In summer, air temperatures here are often kept at around +40 degrees, but in winter they drop to +17 o C.

United Arab Emirates

Average temperature of the warm season: +37 o C.

In the UAE, the climate is extremely dry and hot. The hottest months of the year are July and August. At the same time, the heat does not subside even at night, remaining at a level of +34...35 o C. Almost the entire territory of the UAE is covered with sand. But this did not stop the Arab sheikhs from turning their country into one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the Middle East.

Botswana

Average temperature of the warm season: +40 o C.

Another African country in our ranking is Botswana. There are clearly two seasons here: hot winter (since this is the Southern Hemisphere) and relatively cool summer, when the air temperature averages +25 degrees. Within the Kalahari Desert, even slight frosts sometimes occur.

Qatar

Average temperature of the warm season: +41 o C.

Finally, the hottest country in the world is Qatar. Local residents are not particularly surprised when they see values ​​of +50 degrees on their thermometer. And it's in the shade! Most of the country is occupied by deserts, so sandstorms blow here throughout the year.

One of Qatar's main problems is the shortage of drinking water. It is solved by desalination. This is why water in this country costs more than gasoline.

Let's look at what temperature records in the world and the places where they were recorded. In other words, this selection is 10 hottest and coldest places on earth.

To begin with, I propose to consider the coldest ones. These places are generally considered to be the coldest on Earth. Brrr – I wouldn’t want to live there (:

  • Antarctica. Vostok station.

This station belongs, as you probably already guessed, to the Russians. This is where it was recorded coldest temperature. A significant date is July 21, 1983, then there was severe frost, and the thermometer showed our planet's record -89.2 °C. And now a little more specifically about this place: the altitude is 3.5 kilometers above sea level, the station is located in the area of ​​one of the largest lakes in the world: Lake Vostok of the same name. Naturally, the lake is not on the surface, it is located under the ice at a depth of 4 kilometers.

  • Canada. Eureka station.

This research station is often called the coldest populated area in the world. -20 ° C is the average annual air temperature, and in winter it usually drops to -40 ° C. This station is intended as a meteorological station and was created in the middle of the last century.

  • Russia. Yakutia. Oymyakon.

Well, this place is already in the North: 350 km from the Arctic Circle to the south. Was recorded here lowest temperature record for the Northern Hemisphere-71.2 °C (1926). This is confirmed by the memorial plaque installed after this event.

  • USA. Denali (Mount McKingley).

This is the highest point in North America. Mount McKingley is the coldest on Earth, its height is 6,194 meters.

  • Mongolia. Ulaanbaatar.

And this is already the coldest capital. The height above sea level is 1.3 kilometers. The thermometer very rarely shows temperatures above -16 ° C in January.

Well, we visited the most “icy” places. Personally, I wanted to immediately drink a cup of hot coffee or tea, but this is not at all necessary, because next we will go with you to the hottest countries. Well, let's continue!

So, hottest places in the world.

  • Libya. El Azizia.

El Azizia is only an hour's drive from the Mediterranean Sea. And despite this it is very hot there. For example, on September 13, 1922, the days were so hot that the thermometer tirelessly showed 57.8 ° C.

  • Africa. Ethiopia. Dallol.

The place is 116 meters below sea level. And it is in Dallol that it is observed record high average temperature+34.4 ° C. The area is covered with salt and is volcanic in nature, so nothing grows here and there is nothing living at all.

  • Libya. Dashti-Lut Desert.

It was in this desert that it was recorded highest temperature on the Earth's surface +70 ° C. This is a record!! This is the maximum temperature!! By the way, about the date: they were able to record such a temperature here twice: in 2004 and in 2005. This desert is one of the driest places on the planet. There is also nothing living here, including even bacteria. Just imagine: not even bacteria can survive there! But the dunes there are like in a fairy tale: they reach 500 meters in height and are the most beautiful!

  • USA. California. Death Valley.

This desert belongs to the second record for highest temperature: +56.7 ° C. The average summer temperature here is approximately +47 ° C. Death Valley is the driest place in the USA, it is surrounded by mountains and is located 86 meters below sea level.

  • Thailand. Bangkok.

The average annual temperature in this city is +28 ° C. The hottest time here is from March to May - the average temperature in these months is +34 ° C, and if you also take into account that the humidity is 90%, then this is in general (in vain I drank a cup of hot coffee all still (=).

Let's summarize. We visited amazing places: these were the places where we recorded temperature records, the lowest and the highest. Personally, I realized for myself: there is no need for extremes; and it turns out that I am quite happy with the climate of the place where I live, it can be both cold and hot here, but in moderation compared to the places listed above.
