A solo traveler's guide to Amritsar
Amritsar is a city of faith in the desert, located in the northern part of India, bordering Pakistan, and it overturns my imagination of Indian cities.
Transportation guide, traveling alone from Delhi, India to Amritsar, take a second-class train compartment. It is advised not to take the lowest class as locals may fight for seats. The cost for a second-class compartment is less than 20 yuan. However, purchasing tickets at the train station is inconvenient due to the need to queue. Online purchases require a local SIM card for registration and a local credit card for payment. I used an intermediary to buy the ticket for 60 yuan, for a second-class seat. The journey takes over 5 hours.
Accommodation, it is recommended for solo travelers to choose accommodations in the center of Amritsar, as it is unsafe to walk through alleys at night. The cost starts at 100 yuan, and the environment is quite nice.
Attractions guide, the main attractions in Amritsar are the Golden Temple and the flag-lowering ceremony at Wagah, in the neighboring city.
The Golden Temple is the landmark of Amritsar, and it can be said that the city was built around this temple. Head coverings are required to enter the Golden Temple, which is open for free, and free meals are provided all day, allowing visitors to experience it with the locals.
Additionally, the commercial street in the Golden Temple square has a Middle Eastern flair, reminiscent of ancient Persian style, with many ethnic costumes and delicacies.
Wagah is an hour's drive from Amritsar, and you need to carpool from the Golden Temple square, which costs 10 yuan for a round trip. I carpooled with locals. The flag-lowering ceremony at the India-Pakistan border is a carnival, with people from both countries dancing together. Then they lower the flags together, with a strong sense of ceremony. The event is free of charge.

Wagah is an hour's drive from Amritsar. You need to share a ride to the Golden Temple Square. The round trip costs 10 yuan. I shared a ride with the locals. The border flag-lowering ceremony between India and Pakistan is a carnival, with people from both countries dancing together. Then lower the national flag together, the performance ceremony is very strong. Free of charge.

golden temple amritsar
It #travel is a religious place for Sikhs,a religion in India.Most part of it is made up of gold.Nearby have more temples and historical jallianwala baag.Visited on a busy Sunday. The place is impressive architecturally with a respectful attitude by the many visitors.
The langar is huge and very well patronised by those seeking sustenance and the many volunteers. The chapati manufacturing machines were typical of the scale of activities.
The “putting to bed” ceremony was worth seeing for its significance and ceremonials.

Golden Temple is a seamless blend of jaw-dropping architecture, warm hospitality and captivating peace. It attracts devotees from different corners of the globe who seek blessing and spiritual solace. This magnificent structure with sparkling golden walls and intricate designs is an absolute treat for the eyes. Standing tall in the middle of a massive pool often gives an illusion that the spectacular Golden Temple is floating in the water. The sight is incredibly beautiful and leaves an imprint on the soul. Everyday holy food for 100000 people prepared there.

Its an out of the world feeling once you enter Golden Temple premises. The vibes are so positive. One of the best temple experience I have visited till date. The management is very perfect and disciplined. No chaos at all. The staff are also very humble & soft spoken. No body forces for any alms or donations. #wintergetaway

In India, where thousands of gods float, if there is a place that best feels the peoples beliefs and enthusiasm for God, the Golden Temple of Amritsar is one of the most powerful competitors. The Golden Temple is by Sikh. The four-headed leader, Guru Ramdaas Ji, was founded in August 1604 by his successor, Guru Arjan Dev Ji. It is itself a product of the "native" Sikh against the mighty Mughal emperor. In the north of India, where tragedies of ethnic minorities have been devastated, the Golden Temple has not lost its unparalleled brilliance.
All Sikhs are very proud of their great glorious temple and open their smiles to welcome people from all over the world.
JOJO’s wonderful trip.
Amritsar, the great golden city of Sikh. The most fascinating moment is its night. When the beautiful lights shine above the golden stupa. The entire lake is immersed in the golden light, and people can't help but breathe.
The reflection of the evening makes people feel like a dream. The radiant architecture is reflected in the water, so I can't tell the truth. A calm river, squatting in the dense shadows of the trees, only those leaves that are rustled by the wind and rain, seem to recall the excitement and busyness of the day.

Every Sikh man has an innate king's demeanor. They are wrapped in long headscarves, with thick and neat beards, and a sword with a sword hanging around their waists. The Sikh men carry "5 treasures", also called "5k", which are: Kanga, Kachha, Kara, Kirpan, Kesh. The custom of five K was advocated by Gobind Singh (the 16661708 AD), the tenth generation of Sikh. It means wooden comb kanga used to comb hair; close-fitting shorts are used to remind Sikh people not to have extramarital affairs; bracelet kara reminds Sikh people not to do bad things; Sikh short knife kirpan reminds Sikh people to fight against sin at any time; hair reminder The image of the long hair made by the Sikh people of WaheGuru is God's own image and a true human image.

A socialist place than Cuba! ! Eat and stay free! ! In the morning, go to the cafeteria to eat a breakfast barefoot, go downstairs to finish the sweet milk tea, go to the old town and the old blacksmith to squat, when the sun is shining, dry a bottle of 5 cents of cola, then go to the Golden Temple. Listen to the song of the afternoon, and later return to the dormitory and the roommates of the five seas and the sea, this is the life!

No matter what your faith or no matter what time, people who come to the Golden Temple can get free accommodation. People can also choose their own way to return to the Golden Temple, or donate or volunteer. It was the sophistication of the Golden Temple that gave people more generous feedback. The Golden Temple was cooking every day but never gave up, and volunteering at the Golden Temple had to queue up to get the post. Here is another place I didn't have enough, not only like the generous Golden Temple, but also the people here.
Golden Temple is so different. It is so inclusive, does not ask the faith, does not ask the country, does not ask the nation, enjoys the true equality of all people here; it also breaks the basic rules of our material society, which provides the necessary for our survival, although there is no Too much, but enough. After temporarily discarding the barriers and material desires, people will naturally be happier. I think this is the most special place of the Golden Temple.
Da-image.
When I saw the Golden Temple with my sleepy eyes for the first time, I was decisively shocked. I am a big 24K pure gold house, shining on the side of the water. Here is the most holy place in India, here is Sikhism. Holy land.
The Sikh religion, which has the least number of the four major religions in India, is the most humanized and advocated equal and fraternal among the four major religions. They believe in the top ten masters, abandon the caste system, and emphasize equality for all, males. The name plus "singh" means "lion", and the name of the female believer plus "kaur" means "princess" and expresses full respect for every believer.
Former Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh is a Sikh, and his name is also derived from it.
Attractions Raiders:
You must take off your shoes when you enter the Golden Temple. There will be a window for the free storage of shoes at the entrance of the Golden Temple. After the shoes are stored, a small card will be given. In addition to bare feet, they also have to wear a headscarf. Many hawkers outside the Golden Temple are selling, 10 rupees, must cover the entire head, and there are guards throughout the process.
Golden Temple's GURU KA LANGAR HALL (free canteen) provides food 24 hours a day. If you want to stay in Amritsar's friends, it is recommended to spend 1 to 2 hours a day doing volunteer work. It also looks like Chinese. High quality!
JOJO’s wonderful trip.
Amrit is the seat of the Sikh Hamandir Temple, also known as the Golden Temple. It is named after the temple roof of gold. The most important holy place of Sikhism, the Sikhs who come here for pilgrimage are not Absolutely. The most famous Sikh image in my mind is Sinbad, and the Sikh men are as powerful as Sinbad. Sikhism is also a native religion in India. Its leaders in the past are called Guru. Guru conveys the basic values of humility and friendliness to believers. From the fourth generation of Guru, there is a tradition of sharing food with others. Moreover, the Golden Temple still maintains this tradition intact. No matter what beliefs or no matter what time, people who come to the Golden Temple can get free accommodation and food, and people can choose their own way to return to the Golden Temple, or donate. Or volunteer. It was the sophistication of the Golden Temple that gave people more generous feedback. The Golden Temple was cooking every day but never gave up, and volunteering at the Golden Temple had to queue up to get the post. Here is another place I didn't have enough, not only like the generous Golden Temple, but also the people here.
