January is also the time to head to the snowy mountains and peaks to indulge in some winter adventure and sports with the fine powdery snow. Here are the 5 best places to travel in January:
Miami
Miami is the idyllic destination in January as it offers warmer temperatures, picturesque beaches, beautiful people and buzzing nightlife. Plus, the streets of the metropolis come alive thanks to the Spanish and Caribbean influences and heritage homes, which offer an artsy vibe. Don’t forget to visit Little Havana, s street which will make you feel that you are in Cuba rather than the US. But that’s not the only attraction, check out the colorful Cuban cuisine and cool graffiti on the walls, which will be a treat to your eyes.
Costa Rica
Mexico has become too mainstream in the recent past. If you are looking for something unique in Central America this January, head to Costa Rica. Why? Well, it has everything going for it.

Lima, Peru
For many, South America is only Brazil, Copacabana and Rio de Janeiro. Not many know that there’s another side of South America that packs a punch, Lima in Peru is one prime example. For starters, Peru has the world-famous fortress Machu Picchu, which is around 500 km from Lima. It is also called the City of Kings. Quite rightfully as it offers majestic Spanish colonial architecture and museums at every nook and cranny of the city. Speaking of corners, the city offers plenty of flavors for your taste buds all around the city. And once you are done eating, you can chill and sunbathe at the comely line-up of beaches.
Park City, Utah
For all those who want to pick up the winter sports gear, head to Park City in Utah. The city hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics and you can recapture all those moments at the Olympic Park with various memorabilia and mementos from the event. And if you want to make it an Olympic experience for you too then there are tons of winter activities and sports around this part of the world. But there’s another reason why this city captures the imagination of the people every year in Jan? That’s because it plays host to the Sundance Film Festival and that means plenty of celeb spotting. After all, more than a 100,000 people from the film fraternity gather here.
Phuket, Thailand
Thailand is known as the Land of Smiles. And there are plenty of reasons to smile with some of the most breathtaking beaches, matchless hospitality, and the delectable food on offer. January is the best month as the weather is in perfect tropical mode. Time to get your bathing suit.
