Let’s focus on the month-wise weather details of Varanasi:
November to February
The winter season which begins from November and lasts till February is definitely the best time to visit the divine ghats of Varanasi, owing to its location in Uttar Pradesh in the north. The winter sun when shines on the surface of Ganga, looks very pleasing to the eyes. The temples, forts and ghats can be best enjoyed during the winter season when the temperature remains between 5 to 15 degree Celsius.
March to June
It might be a difficult task to explore Varanasi in the scorching heat of the summer season. May and June are the hottest months with temperature rising to even 50 degree Celsius. The evenings can be comparatively comfortable but afternoons are really tough to tackle. Hence, one should avoid visiting Varanasi during the summer season, unless and until looking for really cheap hotel prices.
July to September
Beginning of July brings rainfall in Varanasi which continues till September. The weather becomes pleasant, however, rains might cause a hindrance in your sightseeing plans. The flow of river Ganga is great during the monsoon season and sitting on the ghat in pleasant weather is a bliss in itself. Hotel rates are also cheap compared to that of winter.
