The ideal time to visit the Shri Kancha Kanti Devi Temple in Silchar is during the winter season, which spans from October to March. During these months, the weather in Assam is generally mild and pleasant with minimal rainfall, making it conducive for temple visits and sightseeing. Temperatures typically range from 10°C to 25°C, ensuring comfortable travel conditions. Moreover, this period avoids the heavy monsoon rains that Assam experiences between June and September which can lead to flooding and make transportation challenging.
Visitors may also find it particularly rewarding to plan their visit around major Hindu festivals. Durga Puja (usually in October) and Saraswati Puja (commonly in January or February) are celebrated with great devotion and fanfare at the Shri Kancha Kanti Devi Temple. This is when the temple is festooned with decorations, and a series of special rituals and cultural programs are organized. During these festivals, the temple atmosphere is vibrant and offers a unique insight into local religious practices and festivities, although it is also when the temple is the most crowded.
