Trying to predict the weather can be difficult because of local on the day variations.
This information should be used as a guide only.
Here is the average weather for New Delhi for this time of year.
Enjoy your holiday.

I hope these many options will be sufficient..However, if u have any specific ques u are most welcome.

The New(or is it Old Bazaar)right by New Dehli train station-5-10 minute walk.This is the travellers section and it's vibrant. Connaught Place is expensive and not so interesting.Enjoy.
Sorry,it's 'Main' Bazaar just double checked it.Don't think of anywhere else.Rooms go from budget to mid-range.If you want the expensive rooms go to Connaught but it's not so interesting.
yes its already raining in delhi and the streets are sloshed. weather is lovely. why dont u make a trip to jaipur and pushkar as its not so sloshed as delhi.just wear sensible clothese and carry a umbrella at all times.
enjoy the monsoons.....

happy travels
Visiting or watching market places interesting. So many things happen on these markets and there is so much to see that you can spend a long time here. This market, the Chor Bazaar, is located outside the eastern wall of the Red Fort.
Indian women are extremely elegant, no matter if they are rich or poor you will find these beautiful women always with great elegance dressed, always with stunning bright colours. Its true that in the city there are no so many colours, and people is dress more in occidental way … but as in the monuments you will find Indian tourist … there you will find more colours than in any other places.
Off the Beaten Track
Raj Ghat
Raj Ghat, not far from the banks of the Yamuna River, has a simple black marble memorial to Mahatma Gandhi marking the spot where he was cremated following his assassination in 1948. A commemorative ceremony takes place every Friday. Two museums dedicated to Gandhi are nearby. Jawaharlal Nehru was cremated just to the north at Shanti Vana (Forest of Peace). The area is now a beautiful park with labelled trees planted by a mixed bag of notables, including Elizabeth II, Dwight Eisenhower and Ho Chi Minh. The rarely-visited but quite beautiful Zinat-ul Masjid (Most Beautiful of Mosques) towers over Raj Ghat.

Spice Market
Khari Baoli, the street that runs from the Fatehpuri Mosque to the western edge of the old city, is Delhi''s bustling wholesale spice market. It''s well worth a wander simply to take in the sights and smells because things have changed little here for centuries. Huge sacks of herbs and spices are still brought to the wholesalers on long, narrow barrows pushed by labourers, and there are eye-catching displays of everything from lentils and rice to giant jars of chutneys, pickles, nuts and tea.

Coronation Durbar Site
Incurable Raj fans looking for a nostalgia fix should head to the Coronation Durbar site, marked by a lone obelisk in a desolate field located in open country north of ''Old'' Delhi. It was on this site that, in 1877 and 1903, the durbars were enacted and, in 1911, King George V was declared Emperor of India. Close by there''s a walled garden complete with a rogues'' gallery of marble statues of former Imperial dignitaries, languishing like disgraced schoolboys out of the public eye. Pride of place goes to a 15m (50ft) high statue of George V that rises ghost-like above the acacia trees. It was placed here after being removed from the canopy midway along Rajpath soon after Independence. Most of Delhi''s residents are blissfully unaware of the existence or significance of this place.

Shalimar Bagh
The Shalimar Garden, which lies on the fringes of the city about 10km (33ft) north-west of ''Old'' Delhi, is one of the most important Moghul gardens in the city. This was once the first-night staging post for the Moghuls on their way to Kashmir and Lahore. Aurangzeb was crowned emperor here in 1658. The beautiful central pavilion, the Shish Mahal, was built by Shah Jahan. Although it is in a fairly advanced state of decay, some of the original painted flower decoration has survived and the place has lots of atmosphere.
I can't even count the number of times I have come to Dilli Haat now! Just love the things here. On my visit this August, I bought beautiful, delicately made handcrafted silver and amethyst ring and pendant. A lacquerware tray, windchime and BANGLES! Got a little carried away with these perhaps, but they mae great presents for me and my friends. (mainly for me though....!!) And the handbag maniac that I seem to have become in Japan - these handbags! I paid about 200Rs for the ring as I recall and about the same or perhaps a little less for the handbag. Negotiate the price as always.
Getting There & Away
Delhi is India's major gateway for international flights and is a good place to pick up cheap airline tickets. There are domestic flights from Delhi to all major Indian destinations. The main bus station is the Interstate Bus Terminal at Kashmiri Gate, north of the 'Old' Delhi Railway Station. Popular bus routes head into Rajasthan via Jaipur, and to the hill stations of Himachal Pradesh. Delhi is an important rail centre and New Delhi Railway Station is an easy place to make bookings. Useful long-distance trains head east across the Ganges Plain to Kolkata via Varanasi, and south to Mumbai (Bombay) via Agra.
Getting Around
Delhi's bus system is for thrillseekers, anthropologists and those with time on their hands. Buses are generally hopelessly crowded and driven by maniacs. Avoid them altogether during rush hours; otherwise, try boarding or leaving at the beginning or end of a route because there's more chance of a seat and less chance of being trampled to death. There are some seats reserved for women on the left-hand side of the bus.
There are plenty of metered yellow-and-black taxis, but invariably the meters are out of date, not working or the drivers will simply refuse to use them. Negotiate a fare before you set out. Auto-rickshaws are generally faster than taxis on short trips and cost half the price. Negotiate a fare before you board and make sure your will is in order. Six-seater motorcycle rickshaws run fixed routes at fixed prices and are good value during rush hours. Cycle rickshaws are banned from New Delhi itself, but can be handy for traveling around 'Old' Delhi. Cycling is an excellent way of getting around, especially in New Delhi, where the roads are wide, in good condition and, by Indian standards, uncrowded. At the large traffic roundabouts just take a deep breath and plunge in.
