We decided to take an overnight journey from delhi to amritsar, and we reached Amritsar on a cold January morning to start our Amritsar Tour. We started our morning immediately after getting rid of our backpacks in our hotel and leaving for the Golden Temple.

Golden temple is associated with the history of Sikhism that is famous for its cultural heritage, religion, and cuisine.
