导读：地理位置决定了各地的气候。五月时节，想旅游的人该去哪些地方呢？

In Europe， the pleasant weather is coming back and the sun is starting to warm up various countries. Its the ideal time to visit southern and western Europe： Austria is throwing off its winter coldness to enjoy a dry and sunny climate with temperatures generally above 20°C. Scotland benefits from its maximum level of sunshine this month and its flowers add to the beauty of its countryside. Croatia and Hungary enter into the warmth of springtime and Portugal is enjoying summer-like temperatures that invite visitors to relax， go for walks and explore.

In Asia， few places are advised to go to at this time of year. Bali and Indonesia （except Sumatra where its still raining a lot even during dry season） are worth going to as is Japan which experiences warm， pleasant weather at this time. China， depending on the area that you are considering for a visit， can be a good choice at this time.

In Africa， its a good time to visit the deserts of northern Africa before the suffocating heat of summer arrives. A trip to Reunion Island will provide sunny weather with pleasant temperatures and nice humidity levels. Cap Vert is definitely a possibility as its not raining a lot and the sea temperature is approximately 25°C.

In North America， the Caribbean is a great place to visit. Guadeloupe， Martinique and also the Bahamas are still welcome places to visit before the rainy season starts. In South America you could consider visiting Bolivia， where the rainy season has ended. Its also a good time to visit Central America， particularly the west coast of Mexico.

To be avoided：

Egypt is starting to suffer from heat waves and India is entering its very hot and humid monsoon season. Zanzibar is still in the middle of its rainy season and Sri Lanka is experiencing its monsoon season.
