🗓️ Hyderabad Through the Year
Hyderabad experiences hot summers, a pleasant monsoon, and a dry, mild winter. The city's character shifts from dusty and sweltering to lush and cool, making winter the most popular time to visit. Summers are best avoided due to extreme heat.
Festivals and events worth timing your visit
Ramadan (month varies) sees the city come alive with food stalls and celebrations, especially around Charminar. Bonalu, usually in July or August, is a vibrant Telangana festival with processions and offerings to the goddess Mahakali. Diwali in October/November is also widely celebrated with lights and sweets.
What to pack
For winter, pack light woolens as evenings can get cool. During monsoon, carry rain gear like a raincoat or umbrella. Summer demands light cotton clothing, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat to protect from the strong sun.
Saving money
Hotel prices are highest during the winter months (November to February). You can find better deals during the monsoon season (July to September), with potential discounts of 15-20%. Look for guesthouses in areas slightly away from the main tourist attractions for cheaper stays.
