Brief Overview of Amritsar

Amritsar, situated in the northwestern corner of India, is the spiritual soul of Punjab, carrying deep historical and spiritual significance. Situated about 25 kilometers from the Indo-Pakistan border, Amritsar is known for its rich Sikh heritage. It is home to the Golden Temple which is the holiest shrine in Sikhism where millions come for peace and spirituality. This city is known for its deep connection to Sikhism, founded by Guru Nanank in the 15th century, with the Guru Granth Sahib being central to its spiritual life.

Apart from its religious significance, Amritsar is famous for its rich cultural heritage and mouth-watering dishes like Amritsari Kulcha and Sarson da Saag with Makki di Roti, with Golden Temple’s langar providing free meals to thousands each day. The city comes alive during festivals such as Baisakhi and Diwali. Amritsar also has steeped in history with Jallianwala Bagh serving as a reminder of the 1919 massacre. Another significant highlight is the Wagah Border, where the daily flag-lowering ceremony stands as a powerful symbol of pride and unity between India and Pakistan.
