We are visiting at the start of the hot season. Temperatures this week have been in the mid 40’s. Yesterday was 47C. It is a dry heat, which makes it more tolerable. Our survival technique has been to visit sites starting at 8:00 or 9:00 am until 1:00-2:00 pm, then have a break in air conditioned space until dinner at 6:00 pm.
In the evenings after dinner we go for a long walk. The normal dinner time is 8:00 pm as this is when it is cooler. We are falling asleep by 9:30-10:00 pm, so are happy that our guide has agreed to the earlier dinner time.
Summer temperatures……….in the 50C range. Consequently there are very few tourists visiting in July and August. The prime season for visiting is April/May and September/October.
Winters are cold. They experience temperatures of -15C to -20 C. Quite the swing in temperatures.
