Navratri, usually in October, is a nine-night festival dedicated to Goddess Durga. It involves traditional Garba and Dandiya dances, with people dressing in vibrant attire. Diwali, the festival of lights, falls in October/November and is celebrated with fireworks, lighting of diyas, and exchanging sweets. Makar Sankranti in January is marked by kite flying and enjoying traditional Gujarati cuisine.
What to pack
During October to March, pack light cotton clothes for daytime and a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for exploring the city. Don't forget sunglasses, sunscreen, and a hat to protect yourself from the sun. If visiting during the monsoon, carry an umbrella or raincoat. For temple visits, dress modestly, covering shoulders and knees. A reusable water bottle is also a good idea to stay hydrated.
Saving money
