Best Time to Visit India Regarding the question of “when to visit India”, the best
time to visit India for tourists is the winter season. The season
lasts from October to February. It is a pleasure to visit India during
these cooler months, when the heat of summer is no more. Around this
time, the usually wet areas of Northeast also become dry, making it
easier to travel there. Even the hot South India is blessed with cool
weather and rain on beaches in this peak season for India.
Another reason to visit India in these months is that they coincide
with the celebration mood in India. This is the time when maximum
well-known festivals of India are celebrated. In October - November
falls Dussehra, Durga Puja and Diwali. Also in November is the Pushkar
Fair (in Rajasthan), the largest cattle fair in India. In January is
the Republic Day of India and Lohri - the festival of Punjabis. In
March falls Holi, the festival of colors. Then there is Id, Easter,
Christmas and a number of another festivals, each celebrated in
totally Indian fashion. You can experience true India, in all its
richness, by attending these festivals.
The summer months of March to May are very hot and humid. If you are
planning to visit India during summers, then the best thing is to go
to the hills and enjoy the scenic beauty. If you are interested in
trekking or mountain climbing, then, the Himalayas are for you. Months
of March to May, September and November are ideal for trekking in the
Himalayas.
