Amritsar

This is my first trip in college after the end of first year. Before the starting of end term examination. We all friends  are decided to go Amritsar. So according to the plan after ending of examination.We take a train from Jalandhar city railway station. We all are so excited for this trip specially me because i never see Golden Temple before that. After a one and half hour of  journey we reaches to Amritsar railway station, then we take auto from outside the railway station and then it nearly take 10 to 15 minutes to reach our destination.Then after that we booked a room for us in outskirt of golden temple.Various type of hotel are available near to Golden Temple and they are cheap and as well as expensive, so according to your budget you can preferred.We all are from middle class family so we are decided to book a moderate type of room which have AC and all other service that are required for stay. If you do not want to take a room then you can also take free rooms and halls provided by Golden Temple committee.They are well cleaned and lockers are provided to keep your luggage.

After the one hour of rest we went to Golden Temple, Harmandir sahib is its real name,but due to its gold plated building,devotee are called Golden Temple.

Temple is surrounded by a lake.People from all religion are came here in huge numbers to offer a payers and take a dip in lake. A long path is made in between the lake to go to Temple.We stand in queue for a long time for Darsana. We spent entire day at the Golden Temple. Spent hours setting by the lake on the sparkling clean floor.We just feel the devotee in the air. Then after done with all payers.We went to Langar for lunch and seat on floor in line. Energetic young volunteers rush back and forth and served Dalmakhni  and vegetables into each plate.The rotis, however, are not served on your plate. Rather, you raise your hands and accept them with humility and piety. And then we start eating with the call of “Jo bole so nihal… sat sri akal”. Outside the Langar, hot tea are available we all take a full cup of tea. Then collected our footwear from the area where it is stored. and take exit from the Temple.

Then after that we went Jallianwala Bhag which is near to Golden Temple.Which is open at 6 AM and close at 7 PM. A lamp is burning to pay homage to the martyrs, is placed at the entrance.We see that,bullet marked are still observed on wall and garden is well maintain.

At the end, this trip is awesome we all are enjoyed very much and explored the history of Golden Temple, Jallianwala Bhag and Amritsar.
