Siliguri in March
West Bengal, India
Go if you're connecting onward—March offers clear Himalayan views and pleasant mornings, but Siliguri itself is a transit point, not a destination.
Peak crowds
March is one of Siliguri's busiest months. The score rates conditions — weather, access, value — not how many people you'll share them with. Gateway to Darjeeling–Kanyakumari routes peaks during cooler months and school holidays; monsoon Jun–Aug lightest.
March brings spring to the Chicken Neck. The tea gardens around Siliguri start their first flush — some welcome visitors. A good overnight stop before the hills.
