The best time to visit Sivasagar in Assam is from October to April. During these months, the weather is most conducive for sightseeing and exploring the rich cultural heritage of this historic town. Sivasagar, known for its Ahom monuments and palaces, experiences a tropical monsoon climate with significant rainfall for a major part of the year. However, the post-monsoon season starting from October sees a gradual decline in rainfall, leading to cool and comfortable temperatures. With the monsoon receding, the lush green landscape is particularly vibrant, offering a picturesque setting for visitors.
During the winter months, which span from December to February, Sivasagar experiences cooler weather with average temperatures ranging between 10°C to 20°C. This makes for an excellent time to delve into outdoor activities such as boating in the Sivasagar tank (also known as Borpukhuri), visiting historical sites like Rang Ghar and Talatal Ghar, and enjoying the Magh or Bhogali Bihu festival celebrations that take place in January. Clear blue skies and pleasant climate during these months provide an ideal backdrop for tourists looking to experience the essence of Assam's history and culture without the hindrance of heavy rainfall or extreme heat.
