Following the visit, we will continue to the Jallianwala Bagh monument which honors the victims of the Amritsar massacre. There, you will learn all about those tragic events in 1919 which shook the world.
We resume our tour of the streets of Amritsar, heading to the Durgiana Temple, also known as Lakshmi Narayan Temple, Durga Tirath, and Sitla Mandir.
