💡 Travel Tips

📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Bodhgaya when temperatures range from 10-25°C, making it comfortable for walking around the temple complex and exploring the town. Avoid May to September due to intense heat and monsoon rains that can disrupt travel plans.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require a visa to visit Bodhgaya as it is located within India. Simply carry your valid Indian ID proof or passport for domestic travel.
