The short answer
When to go to Rajmahal
November to February is the best window, with mild days that suit open-air ruins and winter migrants at Udhwa Lake. April to June is very hot, and July to September brings heavy monsoon rain that makes ruins muddy and roads slow. Older travellers should plan early starts, avoid the hottest months and keep sights short.
