Amritsar - The Sikh Guru, Guru Ram Das, founded Amritsar, meaning 'a pool of nectar'. It has grown from a sacred village pond into a spiritual temporal centre of Sikh culture.

It is also the city where Jallianwala Bagh, the garden where scores of innocent Indian people were massacred by the British. Amritsar is an institution by itself.

Golden Temple - Har Mandir Saheb, popularly known, as the Golden temple is the holiest shrine for the Sikhs, so called because the entire upper half was inlaid with copper covered over by gold plate. The architecture of the Golden Temple, is a blend of Hindu and Muslim styles.

Jallianwal Bagh - Nearby is the Jallianwala Bagh (a memorial), where during the British rule in India, General Dyer opened fire on innocent people causing a massacre on 13th April 1919. The place is now a national monument. Its walls bears the bullet marks of this tragedy.

Wagah Border - The final frontier, Wagah about 28 kms. from Amritsar is the only border crossing between India and Pakistan.

The changing of the guards and the ceremonial lowering of the flags ceremony is carried out with great pomp.
