Hire a local taxi in Amritsar to explore food joints with ease.
Located inside the Town Hall, the Partition Museum narrates India's partition story through letters, artifacts, and voice recordings. It's a must-visit for history lovers seeking a deeper connection to Punjab’s past.
Leave around 3:30 PM for the Wagah Border, 30 km away, via an Amritsar to Wagah Border taxi. Witness the electrifying Beating Retreat Ceremony, where Indian and Pakistani soldiers perform a synchronized display of military respect and patriotism. Arrive early for the best view!
