Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in MA as well as at Istanbul, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.

The year in Istanbul

Istanbul's climate is mild in winter compared to many places, making it a year-round destination. However, precipitation can increase outside the summer months.

Busiest
mid Jun to mid Sep — This period is the warmest with the most sunshine, appealing to tourists seeking summer experiences.
Quieter, still good
early Apr to mid Jun — Milder temperatures and fewer tourists make this a nice time to visit.
mid Sep to late Oct — Temperate weather with decreasing crowds after summer high season.
early Nov to late Nov — The weather is still relatively mild and the crowds are fewer.
early Feb to late Mar — Cooler temperatures and fewer tourists provide better value.

This section was written by a language model from the climate figures above, and nobody has checked it. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe. The busiest and quieter periods here also count toward the crowd score, which is 20% of the ranking.
