👨👩👧 Family: easy family base — Golden Temple is welcoming to all
The Golden Temple doesn't just feed your soul — it literally feeds 100,000 people a day, for free, regardless of who you are.
Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) is the holiest shrine in Sikhism and the most visited religious site in the world. The langar (community kitchen) feeds 50,000-100,000 people daily. Jallianwala Bagh, Wagah Border ceremony, Partition Museum — and the FOOD.
