More popularly known as the Golden Temple, Harmandir Sahib is considered the holiest Sikh gurudwara. The four entrances to the gurudwara signify the openness of the Sikhs to people of all religions, regions, castes. Anyone can enter the premises to pray and pay their respects to the enshrined Guru Granth Sahib {the holiest Sikh text}.

Built at a level lower than the surrounding land level in Amritsar, the temple aims to promote equality and humility. The gurudwara is visited by over 1,00,000 people every single day, and offers some of the most expertly-made halwa as prasad.
