    "스톡홀름"

    내가 생각할때 북유럽에서 가장 미관이 뛰어난 도시입니다

    도시가 호수에 감싸있는 형태로 호수위에 여러 작은 섬들이 떠있습니다. 그래서 "북구의 베니스"라고도 불리죠

    곳곳마다 숲이 많고 녹지비율은 유럽도시들중 가장 높을꺼라 생각됩니다

    시가지는 구시가지와 신시가지로 나뉘며가 각자의 특성과 매력을 가지고 있습니다

    구시가지(감라스탄)은 중세교회,왕궁을 비롯한 오래된 건물들과 함께 아주 좁은 골목으로 이뤄져있습니다

    신시가지(노르말름)은 높이는 낮지만 현대적이고 세련된 건물들로 가득하고 입체적입니다. 신시가지의 가장 중심인 세르겔광장은 지상부와 지하부가 따로 있으며 지상부는 중앙파사드와 분수를 중심으로 도로가 지나가고 지하는 최대 보행자전용 쇼핑거리인 드로트닝가탄과 연결되는 입체적인 아키텍쳐를 갖고있습니다

    하지만 아름다운 미관과 달리 사람들이 무뚝뚝하고 여행자들에게 불친절해서 북구 스웨덴 냉미녀처럼 전반적으로 도시전체가 차가운 느낌입니다



    "코펜하겐"

    북유럽에서 가장 여행하기 좋고 만족도가 높았던 도시입니다

    중앙역에서 도로를 건너면 유럽에서 가장 긴 쇼핑번화가인 스트뢰어트가 이어지고 30~40분정도 걸어가면 유럽에서 가장 아름다운 부두인 니하운이 나옵니다

    니하운에서 고풍스런 옛거리를 걸어가면 왕궁인 아멜리안보르궁이 나타나고 스트뢰어트~니하운~아멜리안보르궁~처칠공원까지 여행동선이 일직선으로 이어져 도보로 여행하기 굉장히 좋습니다

    무엇보다 스톡홀름이나 오슬로에 비해 사람들이 인간적이고 여행자들에게 따뜻합니다

    맥주마시러 혼자 바에 들어가면 바주인이나 옆에 사람들이 말을 걸어주는 경우가 흔합니다

    특히 전세계공통관심사인 죽구얘기와 덴마크의 축구영웅 라우드럽형제 언급해주니까 굉장히 좋아했습니다.



    "오슬로"

    북유럽에서 가장 현대적인 도시라 생각됩니다

    중앙역은 다른 북유럽도시들과 달리 유리공법으로 모던하게 지어졌고 라디슨 SAS호텔을 포함해 현대적인 건물들이 중앙역부근 센트럼일대에 들어서있습니다

    노르웨이가 석유부국으로 잘살고 돈이 많은 나라라 여러 도시프로젝트도 진행되고있고 특히 제가 갔을때는 없었던 바코드지구도 생겼습니다

    바코드지구는 해안쪽에 오페라하우스와 다양한 디자인의 글로벌기업건물들이 입점해있는 신흥 국제비즈니스구역입니다

    돈아끼는 팁은 없어 횽. 스위스에서는 인터라켄보다 루체른 도시구경하는게 훨씬 예쁘고 북유럽은 5-6월이 제일 예쁜데 역시나 탕진은 각오해야해.. 특히 오후 3시 이후에 해가져서 관광이 힘드니 비싸도 피크시즌에 가도록 하자.

    That sounds like a great plan! Switzerland is known for its stunning mountain views, but the heat can vary depending on where you are. Generally, Switzerland’s climate can be quite diverse due to its topography—hot in the lowlands and cooler in the mountainous regions.

    Switzerland’s Climate in Summer:

  • Lowlands/Urban Areas (e.g., Zurich, Geneva, Lucerne): During the summer months (June to August), temperatures in the lowlands can go up to around 25-35°C (77-95°F). Cities like Zurich and Geneva can definitely get quite warm, especially in July and August. Urban heat can make it feel even warmer, though it’s usually a dry heat.

  • Mountain Areas (e.g., Zermatt, Jungfrau, Interlaken): If you head to the mountains, it’s much cooler, even in the summer. Temperatures tend to stay more comfortable, around 15-20°C (59-68°F), which is perfect for hiking or simply enjoying the fresh air. In the high Alps, it can even get chilly, particularly at night.

So, if you avoid the lowlands and stick to the mountains, you’ll be much more comfortable temperature-wise.

Comparing Switzerland to Northern Europe:

Northern European cities like Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen typically have milder summers, with temperatures ranging from 15-25°C (59-77°F), rarely going beyond that. It’s generally cooler and less humid than in Switzerland’s lowlands. So in terms of heat, yes, Northern Europe will likely feel more comfortable for you if you're looking to escape the heat and sweat!

Summary:

  • Switzerland's lowlands (cities like Zurich) can get quite hot in summer, especially in July and August.

  • Swiss mountain areas will be cooler and more pleasant if you're looking to escape the heat.

  • Northern Europe (Norway, Sweden, Denmark) will definitely have more mild summer temperatures.

If you’re not a fan of heat and sweat, your best bet in Switzerland would be to prioritize mountain regions, and balance your trip with time in Northern Europe for a more consistently cooler experience.

Are you planning on hiking in the mountains or just exploring the cities? That could affect how you plan your itinerary!

If you're avoiding heat, I'd suggest Stockholm or Helsinki for the coolest, most pleasant summer climate. Copenhagen is also a great choice if you want similar conditions. Are you leaning towards a particular city for your summer travels?


  • Northern Europe vs Australia (summer temperatures):

  • Northern Europe (Stockholm, Helsinki, Copenhagen):

    • As mentioned, these cities experience milder summer temperatures around 15-25°C (59-77°F). They rarely get extremely hot, even in peak summer. The cooler, coastal climate makes it more comfortable for outdoor activities.

  • Australia:

    • In Sydney, Melbourne, and the southern parts of Australia, summer temperatures are much warmer, usually ranging from 20-30°C (68-86°F), with occasional heatwaves pushing temperatures above 35°C (95°F).

    • Tasmania is the coolest part of Australia, with summer temperatures around 15-25°C (59-77°F), but even here, it can sometimes reach mid-30s on very hot days.

    • The humid conditions in places like Sydney can make it feel even warmer than the actual temperature.

Conclusion: Northern Europe is cooler than Australia during the summer months, with Australian cities tending to experience much warmer temperatures, especially compared to Northern European coastal cities.
