Best Time To Visit Aizawl

Since Aizawl has a typical humid subtropical climate, summers can be quite warm and sticky here. The heat is not as much because of the higher elevation, but humidity is generally considered high. Temperature stays around 25°C on an average, which is quite bearable, especially if you are travelling from warmer places. As a bonus, if you come during April, you will see the flowers of the hills at their prettiest. hence, Aizawl is flocked by tourists mostly in summers.

October is not part of winter in Aizawl. It is more like a shouldering autumn season before the cold climate completely kicks in. It still rains quite a bit in this month, but much less than the monsoon. It is in winter that the real beauty of Aizawl comes out. Try going in November, when the skies have just got rid of the clouds, and the mist of winter is yet to completely set in, which means views of mountains are unhindered. Winter temperature ranges from 11°-23°C, dropping to the coldest in January. Stay for Christmas if you are going in December. The festival is celebrated with lots of grandeur in the city. It is worth enjoying the lights and all the special flavours of the season.
