If you&#8217;re looking for warmer climes, this might not be the choice for you. But, there&#8217;s an array of unique seasonal things to see in China if you travel at this time of year. As the coldest month of the year, visiting China in January is an incredible chance to see the Forbidden City and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/ca\/blog\/what-are-the-7-wonders-of-the-world\/\"> Great Wall<\/a> covered with a dusting of snow. Furthermore, there will be visibly fewer visitors in the winter, so you can enjoy fewer queues and fewer crowds at the country&#8217;s most important attractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As long as you wrap up warm, you&#8217;ll relish the chance to visit the Terracotta Warriors or Shanghai&#8217;s brilliant museums without the usual tour groups and busy crowds. On the other hand, the famous International Ice &amp; Snow Sculpture Festival takes place in Harbin every January and February. The largest festival of its kind, its record-breaking sculptures are a must-see! For wintery scenes, fewer crowds and brilliant cultural events, China is one of the best places to travel in January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Panama\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/ca\/america\/central-america\/panama\">Panama<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.exoticca.com\/uk\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Panama-BLOG-January.png\" alt=\"Panama - Boquete\" class=\"wp-image-5487\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes overlooked in favour of neighbours such as Costa Rica, Panama is a delight to explore. It&#8217;s also one of the best warm places to visit in January. Home to tropical rainforests and dynamic cities, Panama in January is dry and pleasantly warm. Furthermore, the lush foliage of the Highlands is particularly spectacular at this time of year. Whilst Panama City gets ready to host the Panama Jazz Festival in January, the popular rainforest town of Boquete holds the annual Coffee and Flower Fair, one of the greatest attractions in the country&#8217;s calendar.
