Amritsar, India

Photography Tour in Amritsar

The best photos of Amritsar aren't at the obvious landmarks. The real magic is in the side streets, the reflected light, the unexpected angles that only reveal themselves to those exploring on foot.

Amritsar is the spiritual heart of Sikhism, home to the shimmering Golden Temple, and walking through its old city reveals centuries of devotion, extraordinary hospitality, and some of the best food in India.
