Guwahati in February

The gateway city, temple town and the Brahmaputra at its widest.

Quick answer. Late winter, dry season continues. One of the easiest months to move around the state. For Guwahati specifically, February is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why February here

Every Northeast journey starts here: flights, trains, Kamakhya temple and the river.

Guwahati is where the Northeast connects: the region’s biggest airport and railway hub sits on the south bank of the Brahmaputra. The city’s own reasons to stay are Kamakhya Temple, one of the most important Shakta pilgrimage sites in India, the riverside ghats and a growing food-and-cafe scene.

Wildlife this month: Wildlife season continues in all parks.

What to do

Kamakhya Temple

Hilltop Shakta temple, host of the June Ambubachi Mela.

The Brahmaputra

River cruises and sunset ghats in the middle of the city.

The launchpad

Kaziranga, Shillong, Majuli, Tawang: everything starts here.
