Sweden is a well-known Scandinavian nation which has numerous inland lakes and coastal islands. This is a great place to plan your next vacation as it has a lot to offer to its visitors. Plus, many Indian tourists haven’t visited this country, which gives you some bragging rights.
In Sweden, the first part of the spring season is generally quite chilly, and summer starts approaching towards the end of May. Finally, the sun begins to appear in the sky in mid-April. If you travel to Sweden from India during this time, be prepared to experience temperatures below zero degrees Celsius.

Autumn is the best season if you want to plan a trip to Sweden at affordable prices. However, ensure to carry warm winter clothes if you plan to visit the country during this time of the year. Autumn is quite cold in Sweden, though not as harsh as the winters.
Late August and early September are the best time if you want to explore the most beautiful places in Sweden with a minimal crowd. The temperatures can drop as low as 1 degree to 15 degrees Celsius during this time, which lets you enjoy outdoor attractions.
