Amritsar (Golden Temple, Jallianwala Bagh) - Delhi (By Train)
Golden Temple - Golden Temple (the most important and holiest Sikh shrine in the world) also known as Harimandir Sahib. The construction of the temple was completed in the year 1604 (started in 1585 AD). The white marble surface of the temple and the gilded domes make for a beautiful contrast. Watch pilgrims bathing in the sacred waters of the Amrit Sarovar (the pond) that surrounds the central shrine, believed to have healing powers. It is on the name of the pond that the city of Amritsar is named after.
The Golden temple complex houses world’s largest free mass kitchen (also called langar) feeding thousands of people irrespective of their caste, creed and faith. You can also participate in the kitchen by rolling a few Indian breads.
Jallianwala Bagh - The Jallianwala Bagh holds a great historical importance to Indians and especially the Sikhs, as the place is a reminder of the brutal and heartless massacre upon a crowd of non-violent protesters and pilgrims (who had gathered in the Jallianwala Bagh), carried out by British General Dyer in April 1919. Transcend back in time to the British era as you enter this memorial, established in 1951.
