If you have a bit of extra time, the temple is a quick stop that doesn’t add much to your itinerary. If your layover ends before noon, you’ll still get a good glimpse of both sites without feeling rushed.

If you arrive around 10:30 am you’ll still beat the peak crowd and the heat will be mild. The palace is open 24 hours, so you can finish by noon and walk to Ram Raja Temple in about fifteen minutes.
