Recent trip to Amritsar

My wife and I took the train to Amritsar from New Delhi. We really loved Amritsar and the Golden Temple. The Sikhs welcome all to their holy shrine. Here is a photo journal of our visit

Great photos and write up, thank you. I was wondering whether to go to Amritsar and you've sold it for me, sounds wonderful.

Ditto for me...saw the Hardwar, Amritsar, Delhi, and Rishikesh Sections...

Lovely Pics, I am planning to go to Amritsar for a long time, however somehow Guru Ji doesn't want me there. But yes, I will do it soon...

Great Pcitures - both of Amritsar and Haridwar. Portraits that you take are really good; must say you caught a man with his pants down at Amritsar (the one relieving himself) ; was wondering if got at you

Thank you for sharing. The quality of your photos is excellent.

Puts mine to shame when I took them there in March this year.

What lovely photos - I have a photo of myself at New Delhi station on the way to Amritsar also at 6.30am also wearing everything I own.. It was freezing wasn't it?

Did you go to the border ceremony?

That is a fantastic website - so easy to look at, and you two just look like you're having the best time together!
