Golden Temple by Akash

Golden Temple

The Golden temple also known as Sri Harmandir Sahib or Sri Darbar Sahib is the holiest Gurdwara of Sikhism, located in the city of Amritsar, India. It was founded by the fourth Sikh guru, Guru Ram Das in 1577. The fifth Sikh Guru, Guru Arjan later designed the Harmandir Sahib to be built in the centre of this holy tank, and installed the Adi Granth.

As it can be clearly seen from the picture above and the name itself a big portion of the temple is made of Gold and precious stones. The Golden temple is also the largest free kitchen in the world serving vegetarian food to about 100,000 – 300,000 people every day regardless of their race, colour or religion.

Angkor Wat By Josh

Vietnam and Cambodia

Angkor Wat

Hey everyone, Josh here. For my posts I'm going to give you some of my favourite destinations from Vietnam and Cambodia starting with Angkor Wat.  Angkor Wat is the largest religious monument in the world, and is situated around 5 hours drive from Phnom Pehn. The temples walls are decorated with intricate face carvings, whilst monkeys and other wildlife roam the grounds. Because the temple is so large, it takes a few hours to walk around, however elephant tours are offered in different locations around the temple, providing an even more unique experience. 

Keep an eye out for more of my posts if your keen for a bit of Vietnam and Cambodia.
