Mandu in July
Madhya Pradesh, India
Go in July—waterfalls are flowing, lawns are green, and crowds thin, but expect sticky humidity and slippery ruins requiring careful footing.
July transforms Mandu from brown to electric green overnight. Waterfalls cascade off the plateau edges. The Ship Palace actually looks like it's floating. This is Mandu's secret season.
