Harimandir

Most sacred pilgrimage site in the Sikh religion. The two-storey temple located at Amritsar, in the Punjab region of India, shines with a roof of gilded cooper, and there are layers of gold decorating the inside. The four doors to the temple signify the welcome of the Sikhs to people regardless of their background. Pilgrims, but not tourists, will bathe in the surrounding pool, the Pool of Nectar. As with other gurdwaras (Sikh temples), people must remove their shoes and cover their heads before entering.
