Culturally and naturally rich, the northwestern Indian state Rajasthan is a fantastic choice all year round, with notable destinations including Jaipur, Udaipur, Jodhpur, and Bikaner. But two periods in particular are particularly good bets.

But of the most ideal time of year to visit, believe it or not, is winter. Though it can get chilly (down to 10 C/F, with some desert areas even lower), there is still a lot of sun but without the sometimes punishing strength of summer.  
The street food stalls are all filled with delicious gond laddus and mawa kachoris during this time, have some to top off your winter treat!

Another great time is the monsoon season, between July and September. The festivals of Teej, Gangaur and Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated during this time, and the streets are all filled with children playing and splashing in the waters! It’s also a great time to explore the Nahargarh and Jaigarh hilltop forts, as the rocky terrain smoothes down during the rains and the lush green grass around makes it a perfect picnic spot. You can also gorge on seasonal delicacies such as daal ke pakode with spicy coriander and chilly chutney, besan pakodas with tea, and mirchi vada with a dab of hot raabdi!

On the other hand, summers can be more challenging, due to scorching heat. Travelers are particularly advised to opt for safaris and day tours during the months of March to June. But they can still avail the benefits of a day safari on a respectable tour, or can chill out at the Jal Mahal’s extensive resort settings! Experiencing the Hawa Mahal and the ancient Amber Fort are also top of the list. 

All said and done, Rajasthan is a state overflowing with rich culture and traditional values, ample bouts of generosity and mesmerizing, gorgeous sights! All this beauty and adventure should never be overlooked, the seasons notwithstanding. Visit this beautiful land of the Rajputanas and you’ll learn just what royalty is made up of!
