something special. Due to its location on the southern edge of the Malwa Plateau, however
hot it may be during the day, in the late evening, cool breeze starts which makes the
evenings quite pleasant, referred to as Shab-e-Malwa.
Rainfall: Indore gets moderate
rainfall of 30-35 inches (~80cms) during July-September due to S. W. Monsoon.
