Amritsar: What to see nearby?

What our travelers think of their stay

The main spiritual center for the Sikh community, Amritsar lies in the state of Punjab and is famous for its Golden Temple.

My suggestion

Go and eat at the incredible Sikh community kitchen at the Golden Temple, which serves more than 10,000 meals per day to pilgrims and travelers.

The Golden Temple, the warm hospitality of the Sikhs and the food, with its myriad flavors – Amritsar will charm both fans of architecture and history and lovers of fine food in equal measure!

My suggestion

Watch the sunrise and sunset at the Golden Temple as the pilgrims walk tranquilly around the sacred pool. Sit down comfortably, and let the place work its magic on you!
