Lakhu, taking a break on the steps with me.

The view as you first arrive.

I spent a lot of time watching from here!

We drover to Amritsar, the home of the Golden Temple the Sikh headquarters.  It is truly special to see.  So far it has been the only temple that does NOT have a multitude of stairs going up.  There is, however, a very long walk to get to it.

The line-up to actually go into the main part and pray was very long......maybe a thousand people, so we opted not to go.  In addition, I think it may have been disrespectful, not being Sikh.

It was truly a colourful fashion parade because both men and women were dressed in vibrant colours.
