Amritsar, in Punjab close to the Pakistan border, is built around the Harmandir Sahib, the Golden Temple. Pilgrims come from all over the world, and its community kitchen serves free meals to many thousands of people every day.

Visit Jallianwala Bagh, walk the old city, and drive out to the Attari Wagah border for the evening flag ceremony. Amritsari kulcha and lassi are a must.
