Golden Temple, Amritsar | Jallianwala Bagh | Amritsar City Tour |

The “Harmandir Sahib” more globally known as the Golden Temple, is the holiest Gurudwara and spiritual center for those who follow Sikhism.

We visit the Golden Temple, which is located in the city of Amritsar, to connect with the Sikh community and explore how they operate the largest community kitchen in the world, which feeds up to 100,000 people per day.
In this video of Living the Jo life, we visit Amritsar in the state of Punjab in northern India, which is the center of India’s Sikh community. Amritsar is located only 30 km from the Pakistan border. To enter the famous Golden Temple (also known as the Harimandir Sahib or Darbar Sahib), which is the holiest gurudwara in Sikhism, you need to cover your hair. To get to the Golden Temple, we walked down the Heritage Street and Golden Temple Road, which are busy shopping streets with lots of stores and side streets with markets. When entering the Golden Temple complex, you are greeted with a stunning view of the Golden Temple, which is surrounded by the holy water of the square pool. As part of the complex, you will find the Langar Hall, a community kitchen that feeds over 100,000 people every day. It was so heartwarming to experience the generosity, selflessness, community spirit, unity, and tireless efforts of volunteers helping out preparing and cooking the food, dishing up the food, and washing up all the dishes. It was such an amazing and unforgettable experience to witness first-hand the kindness and compassion of humanity, which embody the Sikh principle of equality. The Golden Temple complex is a site not to be missed, and it should be on every traveler’s bucket list.
