Flights to Amritsar
Amritsar is located
in the northwestern part of India in the State of Punjab, with a population of
1,500,000 in 2001. Much of this city's history has lasted the test of time. In
1574 the city was founded by the Guru Ram Das, which was bought for 700 Rupees
from owners in the village of Tung.85%
of the people in Amritsar are of the Sikh religion, where the other biggest
minority group is Hindu. Between the two cultures, many battles have taken
place in the last 500 years. Numerous shrines and temples have been built under
the commands of these two religious groups. Villages, towns and city's throughout
India come to Amritsar in search for their Holy Land, making Amritsar the
chosen place.
One of the main
features in all of India lies right here in Amritsar. The Harmandir Sahib,
known also as the 'Golden Temple', calls Amritsar its home. This temple is the
cultural and spiritual center for the Sikh religion. This important Sikh shrine
attracts more visitors than the Taj Mahal in Agra, and is the number one destination
for non-resident Indians. Not only is Amritsar a Mecca for the Sikh's, but also
for the Hindu's-- with many Shrines located all over the city. Modern Amritsar
suggests that it wants to partake in big-city infrastructure, with 769 million
dollars going into roads, water, and amenities. With the growth of Amritsar come
many great architecturally-designed hotels and accommodations. Some of the
sweetest tastes come from the city's fine restaurants, with a touch of Pakistan
being noticeable in local dishes. Dishes with a creamed curry sauce are a
normal staple here, so go ahead and try some authentic foods of India!
