Best Time To Visit Golden Triangle :

The Delhi-Agra-Jaipur region of India is relatively close to each other and so receives roughly equal weather conditions. Except that Jaipur is located in Rajasthan and is more exposed to the Thar Desert.

Because the three cities formed a physical triangle, they share summers, monsoons, and winters together and have temperatures that are usually comparable. Rainfall may vary because Jaipur receives less moisture and precipitation than Delhi and Agra. The long winter months of October to February, as well as the beginning of summer, are perfect times to explore the Golden Triangle. Continue reading to learn more about the weather in the Golden Triangle.

Summer (March-May)

May is the hottest month of the summer, with temperatures reaching 45°C. These places encounter dry heat, which can cause heat stroke, especially in foreigners who are not accustomed to it. Because of the heat, most shops in smaller sections of Delhi, Jaipur, and Agra close down in the afternoon. Some activity begins after sundown, although it is still not very pleasant. If you must visit at this period, keep Electoral water and other rehydrating chemicals available.

Several festivals are organized during the summer months, such as the International Mango Festival in Talkatora Stadium in Delhi, where you can see and taste 500 different types of mangoes! Gangaur is another well-known Rajasthan festival that is held in Jaipur over four days. It takes place between March and April and is a celebration of love, fidelity, and fertility in which women worship Shiv-Gauri (a Hindu god and goddess) by making clay idols, coming to the lake for daily rituals, and praying. You will be enveloped in the four colours that comprise Gangaur’s four days – green, red, orange, and pink. Several fairs and festivals are also conducted in Jaipur during this time.

As a result, April may still be a wonderful time to visit. However, visiting the Golden Triangle in May and June is best avoided.

Monsoon (June-September)

The monsoon season in Delhi-Agra begins in late June or early July, and heavy rainfall can cause flash floods. Showers often arrive in short spurts and lower temperatures, offering relief to the North Indian belt. The Taj Mahal is not at its finest when it rains. This should be the only reason to avoid visiting the Golden Triangle during the monsoon season, which runs from June to September.

However, some of the most important Indian festivities take place during this time. Because rains bring relief from the heat and flowers bloom, this season is revered in Indian culture for festivals of love and fertility. Teej is observed in Jaipur in the traditional Rajasthan manner, with married women fasting, praying, and dressing up to please the gods in order to win their husbands’ love for the subsequent seven births.

This festival takes place in September and is a huge hit because the entire city is decked up in lights. There is a strong sense of affection in the air. Janmashtami, the Hindu God Lord Krishna’s birthday, is also widely observed in Delhi and Agra. Human pyramids are built to break earthen pots loaded with milk and curd, just like Lord Krishna did when he was young. Most roads appear like a fair, and the parade-like atmosphere lights them up. 

 Winter (October-February)

Winter months from October to February are great for visiting the Golden Triangle, with average temperatures ranging from 22 to 32 °C. December and January are severely chilly months not only in Delhi but also in Jaipur. Thar’s sands heat up quickly, but also cool to freezing temperatures.

To get the best view of the Taj Mahal, go in the winter afternoons when the sun is warm in the cold air and fog has accumulated.

Food in places like Chandni Chowk is also well eaten and digested in the cool, dry winter air. There are also certain notable festivals, such as Diwali (October) and Holi (March), that give you a sense of Indian culture. 

Conclusion:

The Golden Triangle’s major attraction is its cultural diversity. This distinction can be recognized through colourful celebrations. It is preferable to visit during peak festival season if you want to enjoy the local beauty of the region the most. Winter and early summer are the best seasons to travel to enjoy the majority of the festivities.
