For a visit during the peak season (November to February), pack light cotton clothing for the day and light woolens for the evenings. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for exploring temples and markets. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat are important for sun protection. If visiting temples, dress modestly, covering shoulders and knees. Carry insect repellent, especially during the monsoon season.
Saving money
