Permissions for shoots at monuments and public places
Rules for tripods, professional equipment, commercial shoots and drones differ from one monument to another, and many protected monuments need prior permission. Confirm the current rules with the site authority before a professional shoot. Parks, streets and cafes usually need no special permission but may have their own policies.
October to March is the most comfortable season. Summers are very hot, and in the monsoon the river rises and can cover parts of the ghats.
