Places to Visit in Amritsar
Golden Temple
A historical and architectural wonder, the Golden Temple is a place best experienced rather than watched from afar or described. Holiday tour packages to Amritsar will be incomplete without a visit to this most spiritual place in India.
The splendid shrine is sure to invoke religious fervor and sacredness and bring infinite calmness to anyone who visit it.
Wagah Border
This border line that runs along the Grand trunk road between Amritsar and Lahore is where you can witness the Beating Retreat Ceremony.
Held daily just before sunset, the ceremony showcases the Indian Border Security Force and the Pakistan Rangers closing the international gates and lowering both countries’ flags.
Jallianwala Bagh
Not far from the Golden Temple is this public garden that was built in commemoration of the massacre of thousands of innocent people by the British Forces on the orders of General Dyer. It features several structures, a memorial tablet, and other reminders of the brutal incident.
Hall Bazaar
The hall bazaar may be known for selling ornaments, handicrafts, and other items, but it is known first and foremost for its Mughal style gate. A trip to this place is a must for holiday packages.
