  1. Purely to manage the weather.

    Rajasthan normally touches 45 deg C when hot and at the same time gets very cold in winter.

    Thick Wall and thin roof supports and controls the Temperature and keeps the house bit moderate in temperature.*


  2. its because of thier climate.

    The summer seasons start from April to June and is the hottest season, with temperatures ranging from 32 degree C to 45 degree C. In western Rajasthan the temp may rise to 48 degree C, particularly in May and June.

    You can plan your trip during the Monsoon season that extends from July to September, there is slight drop in the temperature. 90% of rains occur during this period. Despite of low temperature, you might to face strong humidity.

    Here begins the seasons where you can actually explore the majesty of the royal abode. The Post-monsoon period is from October to November. The average maximum temperature is 33 degree C to 38 degree C, and the minimum is between 18 degree C and 20 degree C.

    This the best period to visit and experience the magic of the golden abode. Winter starts December to March. January is the coolest month of the year. And temp may drop to 0 degree C in some cities of Rajasthan, like Churu. There is slight precipitation in the north and northeastern region of the state, and light winds, predominantly from the north and northeast. At this time, relative humidity ranges from 50% to 60% in the morning, and 25% to 35% in the afternoon.

  3. Thick walls prevent heat conduction and flat roofs transmit the sunrays. Both mechanism are to prevent the house from heating up as the weather of Rajasthan is very hot.
