Best Time to Visit

Early morning (6:00-8:00 AM) or late afternoon (4:00-6:00 PM) when temperatures are cooler and the light is beautiful for photos. Weekdays are quieter than weekends when local families fill the pathways. The dry season (December to April) offers the most pleasant weather.

What to Know

Seasonal Notes

Best visited during the dry season (December to April) when rainfall is minimal. The wet season (May to November) brings afternoon downpours that can interrupt outdoor activities. Avoid visiting during Tet holiday (late January or early February) when many local businesses close.
