Highlights
  • Golden Temple - The Golden Temple, also known as Sri Harmandir Sahib or Darbar Sahib, is the holiest shrine in Sikhism. Located in Amritsar, Punjab, India, it is a symbol of Sikh faith, unity, and resilience. The temple’s architecture is a blend of Hindu and Islamic styles, representing the inclusivity preached by Sikhism. Its dome is covered in gold, giving it the name “Golden Temple.” The sacred scripture of Sikhism, the Guru Granth Sahib, is enshrined inside the temple. The complex includes a sarovar (sacred pool) known as the Amrit Sarovar, which pilgrims believe has healing properties. The Golden Temple attracts millions of visitors and pilgrims from around the world each year, making it one of the most visited religious sites globally.

  • Maharajah Ranjit Singh Panorama - The Maharaja Ranjit Singh Panorama is a museum located in Amritsar, Punjab, India, dedicated to showcasing the life and legacy of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the founder of the Sikh Empire. The museum features a panoramic painting depicting significant events from the life of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, including his military victories, administrative reforms, and cultural contributions. Visitors can explore exhibits showcasing artifacts, weapons, attire, and artwork from the Sikh Empire era, providing insights into the rich history and heritage of Punjab under Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s rule. The Maharaja Ranjit Singh Panorama offers an immersive experience for visitors to learn about the remarkable achievements of one of Punjab’s most revered historical figures.

  • Wagah Border - The Wagah Border is a border crossing between India and Pakistan, located near the city of Amritsar in Punjab, India. It is famous for the daily Wagah border ceremony, a military spectacle and flag-lowering ceremony that takes place every evening before sunset. The ceremony involves elaborate marching and high-kicking maneuvers by border guards from both India’s Border Security Force (BSF) and Pakistan’s Pakistan Rangers, accompanied by patriotic songs and chants from the crowds on both sides of the border. The Wagah border ceremony is a symbol of the longstanding rivalry and tension between India and Pakistan, but it also serves as a tourist attraction, drawing visitors from around the world to witness the dramatic display of national pride and military tradition.

  • Jallianwala Bagh - Jallianwala Bagh is a historic public garden located in Amritsar, Punjab, India. It is infamous for the Jallianwala Bagh massacre that occurred on April 13, 1919, during the British colonial rule in India. On that day, British troops under the command of Colonel Reginald Dyer opened fire on a crowd of unarmed Indian civilians who had gathered in the garden for a peaceful protest against British policies. The massacre resulted in the deaths of hundreds of people and left many more injured. The incident had a profound impact on the Indian independence movement, fueling further resistance against British rule. Today, Jallianwala Bagh serves as a memorial to the victims of the massacre, reminding visitors of the struggles and sacrifices made during India’s fight for freedom.
