Amritsar (Golden Temple) hava durumu: Kasım

November is Lahore's most comfortable month by temperature — around 25°C by day, 13 overnight, and almost no rain — and it is also the start of smog season, which is what the forum actually talks about. Air quality here averages 177 in November, the third-worst month of the year behind January and December, and posters describe conditions bad enough that in November 2024 the authorities closed the main tourist sites outright to keep people indoors. It shifts day to day — clear one day, smoggy again the next — so the standing advice is to carry a mask and check the reading before committing to a day outdoors.

Forum posters consistently rate September as a good time to visit Amritsar, describing the monsoon as drawing to a close with some lingering humidity and occasional showers, but overall lush, pleasant conditions that stay short of the peak summer heat. Posters cite typical daytime temperatures around 32C and nighttime lows around 23C, warm but noticeably more comfortable than the hotter months, with less rain than the earlier heart of monsoon season. Posters consistently describe Punjab as safe and stable for travelers, noting the India-Pakistan border situation doesn't affect daily tourism, with visitors regularly touring sites like the Wagah Border without issue. Posters generally rate September as a comfortable, workable month to visit Amritsar, monsoon tail-end humidity aside.

March is one of the better months in Amritsar — days in the mid-20s°C, evenings cool enough that the forum recommends a light sweater or jacket for ceremonies after sunset, the Golden Temple at night being a genuinely different experience from the same place by day. Regulars single out arriving around 4am for Amrit Vela and the Palki Sahib ceremony, back at the hotel by half seven. The figure the forum does not raise: Punjab's air is poor year-round, and March still averages an AQI of 120 — much better than January's 190 or December's 178, but well short of clean.
