Apart from the temple and ambiance, you can simply seat for hours doing nothing nothing and still feel peace in side.

Very beautiful bhajans wre being sung inside...fellow visitors are civilised...no pushing around or elbowing. Hang around the place and try to understand the sikh history...the history of their gurus and the history of the temple. It's worth time spent. Have the prasad, it's very tasty and full of love.

It is an epitome of Sikhism and a preferred destination to pay obeisance to the Guru's. The calmness of the waters of the sarovar, the melodious sounds of the kirtan and prayers, the tireless service in the langar and the patience of the devotees to bow before the holy book in the Harmandir Sahib completes the visit to the Golden...

This was our first visit to this Holy place. The place is magnificent. The environment is fantastic. But everything got totally spoilt trying to have a darshan. The Q is chaotic. It is poorly organised.It is fraught with danger of stampede. It took 2 hours and 10 minutes of being pushed by a swarm of crowd from the rear to... More

Service is the worship of god, and Golden temple (Harmandir Sahib) is a testimony of it. Despite of huge influx of devotees cleanliness inside the temple is remarkable. Don't forget to cover your head with scarf to visit the temple.

Gets very busy these days. The place is breathtaking, even if you can't get inside the Golden temple itself. The sikhs are very friendly, and will feed you and make you welcome. Went seven years ago and have been going back ever since.

Visited Golden Temple with family recently (Mar 2013) late in the evening. The temple has a charm of its own and you feel quite at peace. Even late in the evening this holy gurudwara is crowded and people from all around can be seen. The local folks are very helpful and guide you around. Difficult to describe in words your... More
