Kurukshetra in June
Haryana, India
Midday temperatures hit 46°C, making the pilgrimage circuits and sacred sites inaccessible during daylight hours
June is Kurukshetra at its most punishing — 46°C pre-monsoon heat mixed with dusty Haryana winds that feel like opening an oven door. The heritage circuit is impossible. Brahma Sarovar shimmers in heat distortion. The battlefield where Arjuna hesitated now makes you hesitate to step outside your hotel.
