All Months
November through March is your sweet spot - temperatures hover around 25°C and humidity drops to bearable levels. December and January are peak season for good reason. The weather's perfect for walking around Old Dhaka's narrow lanes without melting. February brings clear skies ideal for rooftop dining and river trips. March starts getting warmer but remains comfortable. Avoid April through October unless you enjoy feeling like you're inside a steam bath. Monsoon season (June-September) brings flooding that can shut down entire neighborhoods. But here's a secret: if you can handle the heat, May and October offer fewer crowds and better hotel deals. Ramadan timing varies, but it's actually fascinating to experience - the evening iftar markets are incredible, though many restaurants close during day hours.
