📅 October to March is ideal for visiting Madurai, with pleasant weather and lower humidity making temple exploration comfortable. Avoid May to September due to extreme heat and monsoons that can disrupt travel plans.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require a visa to visit Madurai as it is within India. Simply carry a valid government-issued ID like Aadhaar or passport for domestic travel.
