Sri Harimandir Sahib or Golden Temple in Amritsar (Punjab) remains the holiest Sikh shrine. The aura of this shrine is such that people of all casts, creeds and race visit here to attain mental solace and to connect with the divinity. Golden Temple portrays the rich history of Sikhs. The most surprising fact about this Gurdwara is that the fifth Guru of Sikhism, Guru Arjan requested Sai Mian Mir ? a Muslim Pir of Lahore to lay its foundation stone in the year 1589.
The beauty of Golden Temple is unmatched and visiting this masterpiece is a memorable experience. It is raised on a 67ft. square platform nestling with a holy Sarovar (tank). It has doors in all four directions with artistic styles. The main structure has two storeys accessible by the Guru's bridge.? The upper floor looks majestic with gold plating and an imposing dome while the lower floor is pearly white with walls beautified with motifs. The architecture of the Golden Temple is worth cherishing with a blend of Hindu and Muslim styles. Numerous pilgrims can be seen taking a dip into the holy Sarovar which washes away all your sins. The best time to visit this Sikh shrine is during festivals like Vaisakhi when it is decked up with vivid colors and it remains brimming with devotees.
