Top places to visit in Amritsar
Golden Temple
The Golden Temple stands as a beacon of spirituality, unity, and service. Floating like a shimmering mirage of gold on the tranquil waters of Amrit Sarovar, the temple is a place of worship and a symbol of Sikh values such as equality, service, and community. It owes its name to the astonishing 400 kilograms of pure gold leaf adorning the dome.
Wagah Border Ceremony
The Attari-Wagah border is a crossing between India and Pakistan that is known for its Beating Retreat ceremony, which is held each evening as the border closes. Visit at the end of the day to see the guards from both sides march in elaborate military costumes and face-off across the border in front of packed crowds.
Jallianwala Bagh
This garden houses a memorial to commemorate the massacre of peaceful celebrators by the British forces. Spread over 6.5 acres of land, it is associated with one of the saddest days in Indian History when thousands of innocent people were killed on the orders of General Dyer as they gathered for a peaceful celebration of Baisakhi.
