💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in budget guesthouses near Rajgir Hot Springs area (₹500-1000/night) instead of premium hotels and eat at local dhaba restaurants to save 40-50% on accommodation and food costs
📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Rajgir when temperatures range from 15-25°C, offering comfortable weather for trekking and exploring ancient sites. Avoid monsoon season (June-September) and peak summer (April-May) when humidity and heat make outdoor activities challenging.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa or travel documents to visit Rajgir as it is located within India. Simply carry a valid national ID or passport for domestic travel.
