Teej in July/August celebrates the monsoon season with swings, songs, and dancing, primarily for women. Gurpurabs, the birth anniversaries of Sikh Gurus, are also significant events celebrated with processions and prayers at local Gurdwaras.
What to pack
For March-April and October-November, pack light cotton clothing for the day and a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for exploring. If visiting during the monsoon, carry an umbrella or raincoat. For temple visits, dress modestly, covering shoulders and knees. Remember to pack sunscreen and insect repellent.
Saving money
Hotel and flight prices are generally lower during the monsoon season (July-August) and the winter months (December-January), potentially by 15-20%. Look for budget-friendly accommodations in the central areas of the city. Eating at local dhabas offers affordable and authentic Punjabi cuisine.
