Amritsar's Old City pulses with spiritual energy around the magnificent Golden Temple, where the gold-domed shrine glows against sacred waters. This area showcases centuries of history through narrow lanes, traditional havelis, and the moving Jallianwala Bagh memorial. The bustling bazaars tell their own stories.
