Welcome to the Holy City Amritsar

Amritsar is one of the most ancient and sacred cities of World. Amritsar is historically also known as Rāmdāspur and colloquially as Ambarsar. The name of the city derives from the name of the pool around the Golden Temple ( Harmandir Sahib) and means "holy pool of nectar" (Amrit: elixir; Sar: (short for sarovar) lake).

It is home to the Harmandir Sahib (referred to as the "Golden Temple" in the western media), the spiritual and cultural center for the Sikh religion. This important Sikh shrine attracts more visitors than the Taj Mahal with more than 100,000 visitors on week days alone and is the most popular destination for Non-resident Indians (NRI) in the whole of India.
