April in Ajmer means 35-40°C and rising. The Dargah courtyard radiates heat off marble. Pushkar's ghats are too hot for midday visits. Only those with specific pilgrimage purpose or heat tolerance should consider this month.

The April story

If you're here in April, go early morning or after 5pm — the middle of the day is genuinely punishing. The Dargah's marble courtyard absorbs and radiates heat like an oven. That said, the shrine's spiritual intensity doesn't diminish with temperature. Evening qawwali sessions, when the marble cools and oil lamps are lit, remain powerful. Pushkar's cafes provide air-conditioned respite. The real advantage of April: hotel prices drop 30-50% from winter rates, and you'll share the Dargah with devotees, not tourists. Ana Sagar Lake may be receding. Carry water, sunscreen, and a hat everywhere.

Month	Score	Note
January	5/5	Ideal 8-23°C for exploring Dargah Sharif and Ana Sagar Lake. Dry, clear skies. Low crowds outside Urs festival dates.
February	5/5	Pleasant 10-25°C. Perfect walking weather for Taragarh Fort hike. Urs festival often falls here — expect massive pilgrim crowds if so.
March	4/5	Warming 15-30°C but still comfortable. Urs festival dates shift annually — check lunar calendar. Pushkar makes a great day trip.
Aprilviewing	2/5	Hot 25-38°C. Dargah courtyard marble burns feet by noon. Limited shade on Taragarh trek. Carry 3L water minimum.
May	1/5	Extreme 30-43°C. Outdoor exploration dangerous midday. Pilgrims thin out. Only Dargah interior offers shade relief.
June	1/5	Punishing 32-45°C before monsoon arrives. Dry heat, dust storms possible. Ana Sagar Lake dries up. Not worth visiting.
July	2/5	Monsoon brings relief to 28-35°C but heavy rain floods old city lanes. Dargah area gets slippery. Humidity high, mosquitoes active.
August	2/5	Continued monsoon, 27-34°C. Intermittent heavy downpours. Ana Sagar fills up again. Muddy trails to Taragarh Fort.
September	3/5	Rain easing, 25-34°C. Sticky humidity lingers. Landscape turns green. Crowds still low — decent window if you handle muggy weather.
October	5/5	Excellent 20-32°C. Post-monsoon clarity, Ana Sagar Lake full and scenic. Perfect for Pushkar Camel Fair combo (late Oct/Nov).
November	5/5	Ideal 12-28°C. Pushkar Fair crowds spill into Ajmer. Book hotels early. Dry, clear, perfect for all sightseeing.
December	5/5	Cool 8-22°C. Peak winter — crisp mornings at Ana Sagar Lake. Low crowds, great value. Evenings chilly but pleasant.
