💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in budget guesthouses near the ghats (₹500-1000/night) instead of hotels, and use local trains for transport - they're 70% cheaper than flights and offer authentic travel experiences through Bihar's countryside.
📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Bhagalpur, as the weather remains cool and pleasant with temperatures between 15-28°C, perfect for exploring ghats and outdoor activities. Avoid May to September due to intense heat and monsoon rains that can disrupt river activities and sightseeing.
