When is the best time to visit India?

A country of many climates, and how to time the region you are heading to.

October to March suits most of the country. Rajasthan and the north are at their best from November, when nights turn cool and the haze lifts.

The south holds up later into spring, and Kerala's monsoon from June brings its own green, quiet season.

Ladakh and the high Himalaya invert the calendar entirely: June to September is the only comfortable window.
