Best Time in India: When to Visit

Though the vast expanse of the south and north usually makes a distinct difference in climate, the winter months between December and March can always be the best time to visit India, which is dry and cool, suitable for exploring this ancient land at your own pace. Whether marveling at the magnificent Taj Mahal or enjoying the lively atmosphere of the Holi festival, this season promises unforgettable experiences.

The high temperatures of April and May bring with them a flurry of wildlife activity, making it an ideal time to spot some of your favorite animals such as tigers and birds in the national parks. The monsoon season from June to November brings plenty of rain to southern India, but luckily you can still take advantage of the heat for a mountain adventure in the northern Himalayas. With such diverse offerings, there's always an ideal time to visit India based on your interests.

Must-Do's in India

  • Visit the Taj Mahal

    It is also known as the Pearl of India and the proof of love. Actually, it is a tomb built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan for his beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Unlike the general perception of tombs, the Taj Mahal is more like a white palace in milky white, quietly and elegantly set on the banks of the Yamuna River. Just like the saying that "a solitary tear suspended on the cheek of time.

  • Stroll Around the Pink City of Jaipur

    The city of Jaipur got its "Pink City" moniker because of the many historic structures painted that color. It's a city of architectural wonders, with panoramic vistas of verdant hills and picture-perfect lakes. Here you can take some stunning pictures with the massive Amber Fort, Hawa Mahal, Sheesh Mahal, etc., which may look like you're in a fairytale world.

  • Take a Walking Tour in Old Delhi

    Old Delhi is crowded and chaotic. But it's also an ideal place to experience the authentic Indian lifestyle. You may walk through the bustling Chandini Chowk and enjoy tasty street snacks. Moreover, you may also find some impressive architecture, like the magnificent Red Fort, which has stood in Old Delhi for hundreds of years, and the Jama Masjid, the largest mosque in India.
