About this activity
The Amritsar tour package will begin with your pick up at 9:00 am from airport, railway station or the hotel in Amritsar. Our driver will receive you in a comfortable air-conditioned car and take you for the sightseeing in the company of tour guide.
The sightseeing will begin with visit to sacred ‘Golden Temple’. Amritsar city is known as a pilgrimage site for Sikhs due to presence of the holiest Gurudwara. It was established by fourth Sikh Guru (total ten), Guru Ram Das. The fabulous work of gold leaf on the upper part of temple attracts attention. The architecture of the temple consists of :
• Amrit Sarovar – a giant pool meaning Pool of nectar where people take holy dip
• Akal Takht – five storeyed building situated opposite sanctum having special room for keeping scripture.
• Main Temple – a 10 min walkway leads to the sanctum where Guru Grantha Sahib is kept whole day for people to pay obeisance. Its ceiling is decorated with work of gold foil and precious stones.
The religion believes in selflessly serving the people. It houses community-kitchen in which people volunteer and serve Langar (free food) to all people. Relish Langar and then move to next tourist site Jallianwala Bagh.
Jallianwala Bag is a historical monument and one of the major sites of the city. Take a tour of the monument and know about its history from the accompanying guide. Thereafter, exit the monument and head towards famous Hall Bazaar located in its vicinity. It is a busy local market with good deals of handicrafts, electronic devices, ornaments and books. Enjoy the low cost shopping in famous bazaar.
You will be then taken for a sumptuous lunch in the local restaurant where you can also try Punjabi flavors. The half day Amritsar Tour package will terminate after transferring you to your hotel.
