The ideal time to visit Humayun's Tomb in Delhi is during the cooler months from October to March. During these months, the weather in Delhi becomes pleasant with the temperatures ranging between 12°C and 30°C. This is the perfect climate for sightseeing as the harsh summer heat, often exceeding 40°C, has subsided and the typically heavy monsoon rains have ceased. Visitors can enjoy exploring the stunning architecture and well-manicured gardens of the tomb complex without the discomfort of extreme weather conditions.
Among this period, October to November and February to March are particularly recommended as you can catch the beauty of the changing seasons in the gardens, with flowers blooming in autumn and spring adding to the beauty of the Mughal architecture. It is also a great time for photography enthusiasts to capture the essence of the tomb with the perfect natural lighting. Moreover, these months coincide with various festivals and events, such as Diwali, Holi, and the India Art Fair, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience India's rich cultural heritage alongside the historical marvel of Humayun's Tomb.
