💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in government-run guesthouses or budget hotels near the railway station where rooms cost ₹300-600 per night, and eat at local Bengali dhaba restaurants for authentic meals under ₹150 per person.
📅 October to March is ideal when temperatures range from 15-28°C, making exploration comfortable and pleasant. Avoid May-June monsoons and extreme summer heat, which can make sightseeing challenging.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require a visa to visit Malda as it is located within India, in West Bengal state. Simply carry valid ID proof like Aadhaar or PAN card for domestic travel.
