The ideal time to visit Agra is during the cooler months from November to March, when the weather is most pleasant for sightseeing. During this period, the temperatures range between a comfortable 12°C to 22°C. The winter months bring with them a respite from the normally scorching temperatures, and this cooler period is perfect for spending extended periods outdoors exploring Agra's historic sites including the majestic Taj Mahal, the imposing Agra Fort, and the beautiful Fatehpur Sikri.
Visitors should also consider timing their visit to coincide with the Taj Mahotsav, a 10-day festival usually held in February that celebrates Indian arts, crafts, cultures, and cuisine, offering a remarkable glimpse into the rich heritage of the region. However, it's worth noting that fog can sometimes be a concern in December and January, potentially obscuring views of the iconic Taj Mahal in the early morning. Therefore, planning your visits to the monuments for the late morning or afternoon can be a good strategy during these months for the clearest sightseeing conditions.
