Is the hottest country in the world your dream? Let's mentally move there!

Geography of "hot" countries

It is worth noting that this title is worthy of several places on Earth. They are scattered almost over the entire surface of the planet. To see these countries with their own eyes, we will almost have to circle our planet along the equator. The climate of hot countries can be both deserted and tropical. They are located in Asia and Africa, in Europe and America, on stony plateaus and in the middle of deserts, washed by the waters of the oceans and seas, hidden behind high mountains and stretched in valleys.

The "hot countries" group includes a list of countries whose air temperature has ever reached record levels.

Ethiopia

This state is located in East Africa. Ethiopia is the hottest country in the world, as its average temperature is the highest among all other states. It is +34 degrees.

The hollows of Afar and Dalol are a volcanic area. Their surface is covered with salt. Sticking under the fierce rays of the African sun, the salt is caked in a glassy crust. The snow-white sparkling surface of these valleys refers to points with extremely high temperatures.

Indonesia

Indonesia is an island nation in the south-eastern part of Asia. It is washed by the waters of the Pacific and Indian oceans, so the country's climate is tropical, the humidity is very high. The average annual temperature in Indonesia is +30 degrees, the water on the coast is heated to 27-29 degrees. High air temperature in combination with high humidity is difficult to tolerate by tourists. It seems that it is difficult to breathe, the air seems thick and viscous.

India

The territory of the state from the cold winds of the Mongolian steppes cover the Himalayan mountains with a shield. The Thar Desert, which occupies part of India's area, blows with burning air into the territory of this country.

The air temperature in the summer months can rise to a mark of +48 degrees.
In India there is the most humid place on Earth - the Shillong Plateau.

All the cities of the country are densely populated. In total, more than 1 billion people live in India. Streets resemble a bright motley merry-go-round from animals, transport, fabrics, spices, ornaments, dishes, souvenirs. All this makes noise, moves, cracks, sings. Heat and a kaleidoscope of impressions can spoil the head even to an experienced tourist.

Malaysia

This equatorial Asian state is famous for its tropical climate. The air temperature here never falls below +26 degrees. In the summer months, the thermometer often rises to +40.

This country attracts tourists with its rich flora and fauna. In addition, Malaysia is a surprisingly peaceful and calm state. Kuala Lumpur is one of the largest industrial and administrative centers of Asia. It strikes a bizarre mix of ultramodern and ancient architecture.

Jamaica

Now let's go to North America. Here, washed by the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea, is the island state of Jamaica. The average air temperature is +28 degrees. In Jamaica, the largest river of the continent - the Rio Grande, as well as many small rivers, streams, waterfalls.

The discomfort from the heat is more than compensated by the huge assortment of exotic fruits that Jamaica is rich in. Papaya, avocado, apple star, grapefruit, mandarin, pineapple, banana - it's just a tropical gourmet paradise! Do not forget that Jamaica is also home to the famous drink of all pirates - rum.

Bahrain

For further acquaintance with the most hot countries we will move to Bahrain. This is the smallest Arab state. It is an archipelago of 33 islands.

The average air temperature in the hot period here is +40 degrees, and in the winter months - +17 degrees.

It is interesting that in Bahrain there are no permanent rivers and lakes. They appear during the rainy season, and disappear during the dry period.

United Arab Emirates

United Arab Emirates is one of the hottest places in Asia. Tourists from Europe are not advised to come here in summer, as the air heats up to +45 degrees. And it's in the shadows! Local residents are saved from the heat by air conditioners. They are located everywhere - in the subway, supermarkets, in buildings, even at public transport stops.

The harsh climatic conditions of the UAE and frequent sandstorms can not scare away crowds of travelers who want to admire the cutting-edge architecture and the famous duty-free shops. Artificial islands, snow slopes under glass domes and exotic Arab culture invariably attract many guests to the country.

Vietnam

Vietnam is a country of southern winds. Summer heat here is +42 degrees. Thanks to the tropical monsoon climate, more than half the territory of the state is covered with lush forests. The pearl of Vietnamese tourism is Halong Bay. He is called the eighth wonder of the world, his landscapes are so beautiful. Among all the photos of hot countries, the images of Halong are the most impressive. Beautiful sandy beaches, the mirror surface of the bay and more than 1600 islands and rocks of the most bizarre shapes and sizes create the impression of a real miracle.

Botswana

The hottest country in the world, located on the African continent, is undoubtedly Botswana. More than 2/3 of the total area of the state is occupied by the Kalahari desert. The air temperature in Botswana during the hot season stably keeps at around +40 degrees. Tourists are attracted by a magnificent safari. In the Chobi National Park, a large number of unique African animals live.

Qatar

The glowing point on the shore of the Persian Gulf is the state of Qatar. This tiny country is the world's largest exporter of petroleum and petroleum products. Citizens of Qatar can be proud of one of the highest per capita incomes.

But the climate here is so severe that it can be disastrous for a visitor. In summer the temperature does not fall below +50 degrees. Humidity due to proximity to water reaches 90%. It is recommended to visit the country in autumn and spring. Then you can fully enjoy diving in the Persian Gulf and safari.

Countries where the highest temperatures on the Earth's surface were recorded

The hottest country in the world that belongs to this category is Libya. Here, in the desert of Dashti Lut, the indicator was fixed at +70 degrees.

The second place is occupied by the Death Valley (California, USA) - the land in this place is heated to +57 degrees.

The hottest places in South America are the Atacama Desert in Chile and the expanses of Colombia.

After a long journey through the continents in search of hot countries, we can conclude that not always the scorching sun is better than the restrained temperate climate of the latitudes that are habitual for us.
