Forecast
Avg Historical Daily Average

In  March, the number of tourists coming to Kathmandu rises significantly.

Kathmandu experiences warm and sunny days throughout March.  You can experience a good amount of sunshine, about 8 to 9 hours a day.

The average daytime temperature generally hovers around a pleasant 26°C (79°F) whereas the average minimum temperatures generally drop down to 5°C (41°F).

The nights can get very chilly, so it is advisable to carry some warm clothing and also make arrangements for a heater in the hotel.

In March you can also experience the first festive celebration of the year called Holi.

During this funny and enthusiastic festival celebrated by Nepal with its neighbouring India, people throw coloured powders at each other.

You can also throw water at each other so that the powder makes a thick paste and everyone looks colourful.

People also dress in white so it is more enjoyable to throw the coloured powders at each other.

You can buy a huge variety of shades and colours. Nor do you have to worry about your skin, as all the colours are made from natural materials, mostly different types of leaves and sand.
