Itanagar in March
The capital of Arunachal.
Quick answer. Spring begins. The central circuit (Tezpur-Bhalukpong-Bomdila-Dirang-Tawang, about 350km) improves as days warm. For Itanagar specifically, March is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why March here
Ita fort, Ganga lake and the practical capital hub for ILPs and central-circuit starts.
Itanagar, the state capital, spreads over the hills with the old Ita fort, the Ganga (Geker Sinying) lake and the busy Naharlagun railhead below. It is the administrative hub where central-Arunachal circuits (Ziro onward) start and ILP logistics get sorted.
What to do
Ita fort
The 14th-15th century brick fort that names the city.
Ganga lake
The green forest lake on the outskirts.
