MAIN ATTRACTIONS OF AMRITSAR

The Golden Temple ( Harminder Sahib ) being the main hub of attraction for the whole world since centuries. Although there are a number of Sikh shrines / Gurudwaras in and around Amritsar, Golden Temple is the biggest of all tourist attractions in Amritsar. The shrine houses the holy script of the Guru Granth Sahib and draws its name from the gold-laden dome upon a marble base. Each element in the premises is full of spirutual waves. The Harminder Sahib is placed in the centre of the holy lake where people of all religions take holy dip. You should not carry any intoxicant like a Cigarratee or toboacco inside.



Jaliwanwala Bag In 1919, the British Police fired randomly on a peaceful assembly of people gathered in demand of freedom, which killed hundreds of men, women and children on the spot. The bullet marks on the boundary walls bring alive the agonizing tale of cruelty of colonial rule.

Wagah Border Another prominent tourist attraction in Amritsar is not a monument but a daily event. A little away from Amritsar at the India shares international frontier with Pakistan. Every evening, the change of guard among either national security forces, a handshaking distance apart, is a fantastic spectacle.

Tarn Taran 22 km south of Amritsar, Taran Taran, built in honor of Guru Ram Das is another important Sikh shrine. The architecture is largely inspired by the Golden temple. Popular belief is that the holy lake inside can heal leprosy.
