Amritsar is the spiritual heart of India’s Sikh faith, and the site of the Golden Temple, the most important Sikh shrine. The temple is a riot of colour and activity, with worshippers coming to pray and pilgrims arriving from all over the world to pay their respects. The surrounding streets are a bustling, vibrant mix of markets, food stalls and narrow alleyways, all alive with the sounds and smells of India. Just outside the temple complex is the bustling, vibrant Chandni Chowk market, one of the oldest and busiest markets in India. Here you can find everything from traditional handicrafts to the latest in fashion, as well as endless food stalls serving up the delicious street food of Northern India.
