Travel Tips

The best time to visit is during the dry months from October to March. Pack layers due to cool evenings and moderate daytime temperatures. Respect local customs, especially in religious sites, by dressing modestly. Stay hydrated and use bottled water. Carry some local currency for small purchases, but credit cards are accepted in many places. Be cautious with personal belongings in crowded areas.
