The
Golden Temple in Amritsar is the holiest shrine of the Sikh religion. It was built in 1574 and contains the Sikh holy book, the
Adi Granth. As it's a working religious centre (holy men read aloud from the book all day and night) it has a truly spiritual feel and is bustling with people day and night.
Everyone is genuinely friendly and only too happy to talk... we must have had our photos taken about a hundred times.
