San Diego, United States
San Diego's near-perfect climate makes it an exceptional walking city any time of year. The Gaslamp Quarter downtown is a 16-block historic district of Victorian-era buildings now housing restaurants, bars, and shops. Balboa Park, the city's cultural centerpiece, spans 1,200 acres and contains the San Diego Zoo, over a dozen museums, and gorgeous Spanish Colonial Revival architecture from the 1915 Panama-California Exposition. The waterfront Embarcadero leads past the USS Midway Museum and the Maritime Museum. Old Town San Diego State Historic Park recreates the city's Mexican and early American heritage with adobes and a lively plaza. Little Italy has evolved into one of the best dining neighborhoods on the West Coast, and the beach communities of La Jolla and Coronado offer spectacular coastal walks.

San Diego is more spread out than it appears — use the trolley or ride-share to travel between neighborhoods, then explore each area on foot, especially the Gaslamp, Balboa Park, and La Jolla.
San Diego enjoys excellent walking weather year-round, with September and October bringing the warmest temperatures and clearest skies during the so-called 'second summer' season.
