Description

Do you know springtime in Tokyo is cherry blossom season Or that on the longest day of summer in Stockholm the sun stays up for 18 hours

Seasons divide the year and bring about changes in the world around us. Different seasons bring warm or cool weather; snow or extreme heat; wet, windy weeks or dry, dusty days; and even big weather events like super storms and twisting tornadoes.

Throughout history people have welcomed new seasons with important rituals. Plenty of these traditions continue today, as the change in weather brings different occasions to celebrate and activities to enjoy all year round in many of the world's cities.

Discover what different seasons look like in cities all around the world.
