What makes Amritsar: Small Group 3 hour Guided Heritage Walk a unique experience ?

At 8:00 AM, you will begin your walking tour of Amritsar by visiting the ancient Town Hall, which was constructed by the British in 1866 and is the hub of the city’s local government.

After that, go on to Gurdwara Saragarahi, a moving monument honouring the twenty-one Sikh Battalion troops who valiantly protected their positions on September 12, 1897.

Proceed to investigate Qila Ahluwalia, a fort that was formerly possessed by the Ahluwalia Misl, a group whose leader Jassa Singh Ahluwalia was instrumental in thwarting foreign incursions in the 18th century.

Proceed to Jalebiwala Chowk, which is at the center of Amritsar’s business district, where you may savour regional cuisine. Next, pay a visit to the Udasin Ashram Akhara Sangalwala, which was established in 1771 and was once called Nirban Akhara in honor of its creator. Chitta Akhara, also called Ganga Raam Akhara, was founded close by and was founded by Mahant Ganga Raam in 1781.

The location of Sri Guru Arjun and Sri Guru Hargobind’s standing points to observe the Golden Temple is Darshani Deori, your next destination. Baba Bohar is a big, revered banyan tree that you will come upon as you stroll towards the end of Bartan Bazaar. Then, enter the courtyard of Thakurdwara Dariana Mal, which features stunning colonial-style architecture that has impacted much of Amritsar’s downtown, and take a trip back in time.

Explore Chowrasti Atari, a complex with 32 stores and four passageways that Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib constructed in the 1600s. Proceed to Taksal (mint) in Katra Hari Singh, which was the first mint in Amritsar and used to produce coins under the Sikh regime. The nearby Thakurdwara Raja Tej Singh was constructed in Katra Jamadar by Raja Tej Singh in 1851.

As your trip draws to a close, stroll down Crawling Street, a sombre reminder of the Jallianwala Bagh shooting, in which General Dyer ordered the deaths of hundreds of Sikhs.

Lastly, take a tour of the Ancient Passage, a traditional archway built by Sikh Misls to connect several mohallas and katras of ancient Amritsar. Finish your journey in the majestic Golden Temple, an architectural and spiritual wonder that represents dedication and serenity.
