导读：10月金秋是人们在北半球旅游的大好时节。

In Europe， October is the beginning of autumn.The sunny weather and warm temperatures make all the Mediterranean areas popular. Its the perfect time to visit southern Italy， Andalusia and those major towns in the south of Spain. Also the Greek islands， Cyprus， peaceful Sardinia and protected Corsica are lovely travel places.Now the majority of tourists have left and the autumn rains havent come yet.

In Asia， you could start thinking about travelling to India although certain areas are still a little cool， even cold in the mountains. Its the best time to go trekking in Nepal or drive around Kathmandu and its surrounding area. The south of China is very welcoming at this time.

In Africa， the hot temperatures have ended in the Maghreb countries and its a great time to go inland in Morocco or visit the Desert in Tunisia. Egypt too is attractive right now， especially if you are thinking of taking a quiet and nice Nile sail. A lovely season too in Madagascar and South Africa as well as the Reunion.

In America， it is now the end of the rainy season in many countries while Northern America， Canada and the north of the USA is experiencing an Indian summer. Visit Georgia and Atlanta or Dallas in Texas that are experiencing an ideal climate at this time. Also Phoenix in the heart of the desert， in the Salt River Valley， also has temperatures that are closer to that of summertime. Argentina has hot， dry weather right now and its a great time to see the wildlife in Atlantic Patagonia.

Dont Go：

Certain areas of Thailand which are experiencing the typhoon season which can be quite violent at present. It is also not a good time to travel to some of the South Pacific countries such as Fiji， New Guinea and the north of Australia. The Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean are also experiencing their hurricane season at this time.

My Choice：

Turkey is a pleasant place at this time of the year after the high temperatures of summer， especially if you wish to visit other areas than the coast. Cyprus with its Mediterranean climate has lovely warm weather at times in October.

If you are looking to travel in Asia，India is starting its tourist season and Bombay as well as Calcutta have very pleasant weather at present.
