The world-famous Golden Temple of Amritsar is amongst the central religious places of the Sikhs. Also known by the name of Sri Harmandir Sahib, the Gurudwara is a symbol of devotion, equality, and human brotherhood. The doors of the Gurudwara are open to anyone and everyone irrespective of their caste, creed, or religion. Experience spiritual solace amidst the quaint and pleasing ambience of this magnificent place of worship. Witness the distinct identity, glorious existence, and timeless heritage of the Sikhs. Offer prayers and enjoy a delicious meal served for free by the holiest Gurudwara. Visit the mega community kitchen of the temple where the meals are prepared and served.
This place has been the witness of the most notorious massacre under British rule. The British troops cut down and shot Sikh participants while doing a peaceful protest. The incident has left cavernous scars on the hearts and minds of the Indians. Currently, Jallianwala Bagh is open to the public. A mere visit to the place is enough to give you chills and goosebumps. Even today, you can visibly identify the holes and marks left by the bullets of the Britishers.
Owing to its immense national importance, Dr. Rejendra Prasad, when serving as the President of free India, declared Jallianwala Bagh as a memorial site on Panjabi New Year, 13th April 1961. Explore the timeless history and hero-worship of the sacrifice of millions of Sikhs at the Jallianwala Bagh in the pious city of Amritsar.
Delve deep into the grave moments of Indian history through a trove of insightful information and incredible exhibitions at the Partition Museum. Located inside the town hall, the Partition Museum is open to the public. Correspondingly, it serves as a central repository to document the stories, materials, and chronicles related to the pre-partition era and post-partition riots.
The two-hour tour of the museum will take you through key events of 1947 when the division of British India resulted in the formation of the Independent nations of India and Pakistan. The incident created a ripple effect of sombre, shocking episodes in the history of India. Here you can witness the stories of the partition narrated via classic art pieces, blood-curdling archive material, contemplating refugee artefacts, and epic exhibits.
