Shri Ram Tirath Temple

According to mythological beliefs, age-old Valmiki granted asylum to the goddess Sita, the wife of Lord Ram, at the ashram. Goddess Sita gave birth to twins and kush in this ashram. It is also believed that the flight of Lord Ram’s army and between Lav and Kush took place at Ram Tirath. In addition, it is also said that the great Mahakavi Ramayana was created by Rishi, Valmiki here. This temple, located 11 km west of Amritsar – Lopoke Road, is dedicated to Lord Ram.
Sri Harmandir Sahib
The Golden Temple, also known as Harmandir Sahib, meaning "abode of God", is a Gurdwara located in the city of Amritsar, Punjab, India. It is the preeminent spiritual site of Sikhism. The Gurdwara is built around a man-made pool (sarovar) that was completed by the fourth Sikh Guru, Guru Ram Das in 1577. The Golden Temple is spiritually the most significant shrine in Sikhism. It became a center of the Singh Sabha Movement between 1883 and 1920s, and the Punjabi Suba movement between 1947 and 1966. In the early 1980s, the Gurdwara became a center of conflict between the Indian government led by Indira Gandhi, some Sikh groups and a faithful movement led by Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale seeking to create a new nation named Khalistan. In 1984, Indira Gandhi sent in the Indian Army as part of Operation Blue Star, leading to deaths of over 1,000 Sikh soldiers and civilians, as well as causing much damage to the Gurdwara and the destruction of Akal Takht. The Gurdwara complex was rebuilt again after the 1984 damage.
