Bengaluru in June
Karnataka, India
Bengaluru in June is the year's mildest stretch by temperature — the southwest monsoon arrives in the first fortnight (Karnataka typically receives onset around June 5-10 inland), bringing 100-150mm of rainfall across 14-18 wet days, almost all as 2-3 hour afternoon downpours. Daytime 24-29C, nights 20-22C, humidity 80 percent. Bengaluru handles the SW monsoon better than coastal Karnataka (Mangalore receives 1000mm in June) or the Western Ghats (Chikmagalur/Coorg 600-800mm) — at 920m the city catches a moderate version. Lalbagh (₹40, 6am-7pm) at year-greenest after weeks of rain; Cubbon Park (free 6am-6pm) similarly. Bangalore Palace, Tipu's Summer Palace, Bull Temple Basavanagudi all on full schedule. The city's indoor side runs unaffected — UB City restaurants, Toit-Arbor-Windmills breweries (covered seating), Phoenix Marketcity, Orion Mall, Garuda Mall traffic at normal levels. Koshy's Parade Café (1940), Empire Restaurant, MTR Lalbagh (1924), Vidyarthi Bhavan (1943), Brahmins Coffee Bar (1965), CTR Malleshwaram (1920s) all hold standard hours.
