Visiting during this time gives you the chance to experience Tripura at its most authentic.
Despite the summer heat, the landscapes stay lush and vibrant, especially near the lakes and rivers. This season is also a great time to visit the Unakoti Hills, renowned for its ancient rock carvings and sculptures that date back to the 7th-9th centuries.
Monsoon (July to September)
Monsoon in Tripura, from July to September, brings heavy rainfall, but it’s also when nature is at its peak beauty.
