Delhi

delhi

The crowded, colourful and unruly heart of India.

Don't let your first impressions of Delhi stick like a sacred cow in a traffic jam: get behind the madcap faade and discover the inner peace of a city rich with culture, architecture and human diversity, deep with history and totally addictive to epicureans. Read the overview

Climate

Overview

One of Delhi's drawbacks is that for more than half the year the climate is lousy. For about four months - from November until about March - it's fine, with daytime temperatures between 21 and 30°C (70-86°F). However, by the end of April it's hot, while May and June are really hot - temperatures can swoop up to more than 45°C (113°F). In July it gets cooler but the humidity really hits, often with all-day rain through August and September.
