The gardens and parks, such as the Egapark, are in full bloom, adding to the city's beauty. This period is ideal for couples looking for romantic strolls along the Krämerbrücke (Merchants' Bridge) or enjoying an outdoor meal at one of the many cafes around the Domplatz (Cathedral Square).Early autumn also provides mild weather, with temperatures usually between 12°C and 18°C, and the changing colours of the foliage make the city particularly picturesque. This season is excellent for solo travellers interested in cultural events, as there are often various festivals and markets taking place before the colder winter months.
