💡 Travel Tips
💰 Buy textiles and sarees directly from manufacturing units in Karur rather than retail shops to save 30-50% on prices - visit the wholesale textile markets in the early morning for best deals
📅 October to February is ideal for visiting Karur, when the weather is cool and pleasant with temperatures between 20-28°C, perfect for exploring textile markets and temples. Avoid May to September due to intense heat and monsoon rains that can disrupt travel plans.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa to visit Karur as it is located within India. Simply carry a valid Indian ID proof like Aadhaar, PAN card, or passport for domestic travel.
