- Golden Temple - In fact, the iconic Golden Temple is just a tiny component of this enormous gurdwara complex, known as Harmandir Sahib to Sikhs. The spiritual focus is the tank surrounding the gleaming main shrine–the Amrit Sarovar from which Amritsar takes his name, excavated in 1577 by the fourth Sikh guru, Ram Das. Ringed by a marble walkway, the tank is said to have healing powers, and pilgrims come from across the world to bathe in its sacred waters.
- Jallianwala Bagh - The historic Jallianwala Bagh, a few minutes walk from Harmandir Sahib, is forever notorious for the British massacre of innocent people. The gardens are green, well manicured and colorful. The visitors are mixed with joggers and walkers. It is difficult to imagine this lovely place being the scene of the tragedy of 1919

Wagah Border - Encounter the Beating Retreat Celebration with gate closure ceremonies and reducing Indian and Pakistan flags. Witness the BSF and Pakistani Rangers from their respective sides marching towards the gates, an experience not to be missed while you’re in Amritsar. From their respective sides, the BSF and the Pakistani Rangers march towards the doors.The troops greet each other after the door is open and begin to lower the flags. The flags are folded closely and brought back. The ceremony reaches a crescendo with the soldiers returning to the border line for the final handshake and the blowing of the bugle marks the end of the ceremony. As the ceremony reaches its apogee, Jai Hind and Pakistan Zindabad cry in the air.
After the ceremony, you will be escorted back to your town hotel / set point / dropped off at the airport for your trip.
