|  | From Kim Knox Beckius, your About Travel Editor | | Celebrate Bath's Most Famous Resident Jane Austen was Bath's most famous resident, and her novels and their television and film adaptations probably inspire more travelers to see this storied English city than the fabulous Roman Baths themselves. Each September, Bath honors Austen with a nine-day festival featuring Regency promenades and other costumed events, plus performances, street fairs and more literary diversions. | Toast Your September Anniversary with a Trip September is a popular time for weddings, and that means many couples celebrate anniversaries during one of the best months for a romantic escape. When kids and college students hit the books and temperatures cool, attractions aren't crowded (but they haven't closed yet), and rates are down from summer highs. Here's all the inspiration you need to plan a September trip to toast your relationship milestone. | Festivals Make September THE Month to Visit Germany Oktoberfest in Bavaria, which gets underway September 21, is the highlight of the German festival calendar. It's far from the only reason, though, to book a trip to Germany next month. Wine fests and other autumn celebrations are also on tap. Here's your guide to the best September festivals in Germany. | You'll Love Paris in September September is one of the best off-peak times to visit Paris. The laid-back, summer-vacation ambiance lingers around the city, but most Parisians are back in town, creating an interesting mix of fun and authenticity. The weather is just as nice, if not nicer, than during the summer months, and airfares and hotel rates begin to dip. September in Paris can also be an ideal time for experiencing a Seine River cruise.More September Travel Ideas Below | | | | Related Searches | | | | Featured Articles | | | | | | Sign up for more free newsletters on your favorite topics | | | | You are receiving this newsletter because you subscribed to the About.com Travel newsletter.
