The coolest places to go out in the summer

This article was written in order to get some courage to go out these days, leaving behind the safety and comfort of indoor, artificially cooled places. Usually, the main thing to look for in a place to go out are the location, style, prices and menu. Well, we decided to change that and look for places that just make our life easier and make us forget the heat.

Good news, everybody: we are not talking about the ice cream aisle in the supermarket... :)

A tea in La Metoc garden is just what one needs. You are hidden between flowers, waiting for the evening to pass and enjoying a fruit tea or a mate. Keep in mind that his place is fit for those who are able to put beer and sodas aside for an evening and just relax, not so much for those that would like a loud gossip between friends.

Another tea-place where you can avoid the heat is Ceai la Cotroceni. This time, the secret recipe is a chily dungeon. The menu contains more that 100 types of teas.

If what you want is a cold tea, choose a red fruit or roibos one. The black teas are a little bitter when cold. We advise you to make a reservation for the evenings because it is almost always full.

Arcade terrace on Smardan street is a true oasis. After passing through the noisy bar, you arrive in a small place, full of plants, decorated in light colors where you can try a fruit cocktail or an ice coffee meant to awaken you completely.

We've discovered the largest ice tea in town, in a little place called Churchill. And it really is what it says: Ice and Tea, homemade and garnished with dried or fresh fruit pieces. Another good thing is that here you'll find more that the classic two types of ice teas, lemon and peach - you can enjoy mint, sour cherry and red orange teas.

Another terrace that we recently visited is Cafeneaua Actorilor de Vara in Tineretului Park. We can still taste the fruit nectar and the apple cocktail that we gently drank in the dusk while we considered getting the honey nut crepe and a cup of ice cream.

Everybody knows that cinemas are pretty cold. This metropotam has found himself several times shivering in Cinema Pro and Hollywood Multiplex. Pay one price, get twice the satisfaction: you see a good movie and avoid the sun.

If you know any other cool places - temperature-wise - don't hesitate to tell us!
