Day 2: Amritsar Local Sightseeing + Wagah Border Excursion

Not with standing its beauty at night, the Golden Temple is equally exceptional and charming in the daytime. See the reflection of this enchanted temple in its large and consecrated pool that is enveloped by a series of marble walkways. The interior is decorated with gold and silver wooden panels, ivory carvings and a dome with 1000 kg of pure gold. As a Sikh tradition anyone can be given food for free and the kitchens have the capacity to feed 5000 people per hour. There are large containers of lentils or dhals and an old machine that makes hot chapattis continuously. Lunch at the Langar Golden Temple is indeed delicious.

Our next stop will be more toned down and gloomy as we visit the place where the British troops massacred innocent people in Amritsar on April 13, 1919. It is Jalianwala Bagh, At this somber site in 1919 men, women and children in the thousands were peacefully celebrating the Vaisakhi festival in Jallianwala Bagh garden. at that time however, it was illegal to have any public gatherings, to this end the British soldiers gunned down between 379 and 1,000 people with several more being injured. The Martyrs Well is a dismal reminder of the 120 people who jumped inside to their death in a desperate attempt to escape the bullets of the soldiers. This massacre changed the tide in India in terms of governance and was a significant contributing factor to the end of colonial rule and the independence of India. This event had an intense effect on Gandhi, who then started his well-known civil disobedience campaign.

Your expert guide will collect you after lunch and you will travel in air conditioned comfort to Wagah border (31 Km). Here, you can watch the famous flag lowering ceremony which is also known internationally as the Beating Retreat Border Ceremony that occurs every evening before sunset. Indias Border Security Force and Pakistans Ranger since1959 have performed this military ritual every day.

The parades on both sides of the Wagah border that was once the only road to both countries are rapid and a sight to behold. The soldiers from Pakistan and India with tall, imposing figures perform every task in perfect unison. The infantrymen stand at attention, gates are opened and the flags of both nations are lowered, all exactly together as the sun sets. This has become a blithe spectacle for thousands of people daily, as the two sides compete to see whose marching style is most showy and who can garnish the most vocal supporters. Its a mixed atmosphere somewhat like an outside show, a party yet a military parade and so very Indian. The parade ends, both gates are closed and flags lowered as the night closes in. You will learn more about this meticulously organized ceremony from your expert guide. Then we head to the Golden Temple.
