💡 Travel Tips

📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Korba, when temperatures range from 15-30°C and humidity is low, making industrial site tours and outdoor exploration comfortable. 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 Korba as it is within India. A valid national ID like Aadhar or Voter ID is sufficient for domestic travel.
