Amritsar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'd probably favor Hong Kong over Amritsar but not by much.

Hong Kong for the cooler weather and more intense rainy season, would be nicer if it had Amritsar's sunshine hours though.

Hong Kong for the warmer winters and more tolerable summers. May and June in Amritsar look a bit too hot for me.

I've been to HK in April, July and September and each time it had the allure of a giant, open-air sauna or pressure cooker. So Amritsar it is, mainly for the lower humidity and cooler lows in "winter", plus the possibility of some sub-zero temperatures, albeit rare.

And Amritsar is sunnier

Amritsar. Hong Kong is a nightmare of gloominess in spring, has roller-coaster temps in winter, and too wet summers. Amritsar is much sunnier and quite interesting actually. I like that "hot climate with some variety" type. There are many types of enjoyable days. Mild winter days, classic heat in spring/fall, burning dry heat of May-June (though too hot even for me but I'm OK with it), and moist tropical conditions in July-September. Very nice.

Ah, back to the battle of the two horrors . I'll pick Amritsar. It's much cooler at night in winter and there may be a chance for me to be comfortable during that time of year, and although the summer is quite a bit hotter I don't imagine it feels that much worse than HK.
