When is the best time to go to Varanasi?
The best time to visit Varanasi is from October to March, with November being particularly popular due to the pleasant weather and vibrant festivals. During this time, temperatures typically range from the mid-50s to mid-70s Fahrenheit, creating a comfortable climate for exploring the sacred ghats along the Ganges River, engaging in spiritual rituals, or wandering through the city's ancient streets.

As you plan your trip, keep in mind that peak tourist activity occurs during the winter months, particularly around major festivals such as Diwali and Makar Sankranti. This is when Varanasi comes alive with celebrations, offering a unique chance to immerse yourself in the local culture. The cooler temperatures provide an ideal backdrop for outdoor activities like boat rides at sunrise, allowing you to witness the mesmerizing rituals taking place along the riverbanks.

For travelers seeking a more budget-friendly experience, consider planning your visit in August. While this month falls within the monsoon season, it also brings fewer tourists, which means you can enjoy a more tranquil atmosphere. The lush greenery during this time adds a different charm to the city, and you may find that accommodations and some activities are more affordable.
