Amritsar

Ayer llegamos a Amritsar, en la region de Punjab, otra gran ciudad, yuju! Eso si, con 13 millones de personas menos que Delhi, vamos mejorando. El templo dorado es la principal atraccion. Es considerado por los sijs como el templo más sagrado y un sitio de peregrinación de al menos una vez en la vida para orar y ofrecer sus plegarias. Asi que alla nos hemos ido esta manyana, a ver amanecer ahi, porque al igual que pasa en el Taj Mahal las tonalidades cambian a lo largo del dia. No sabemos si eramos mas atraccion nosotras o el templo, a esas horas eramos las unicas turistas. Ahi os mandamos una foto con una familia que ha querido inmortalizarnos, nos han preguntado de donde venimos, a que mas paises hemos viajado...
El templo parecia un arbol de navidad, con un monton de luces, pero eso no es lo habitual, estan celebrando un festival dedicado a su mas celebre guru (al que creemos le cortaron la cabeza). Cuando ha salido el sol han apagado las luces y entonces si que hemos podido apreciar las paredes doradas del templo.

Yesterday we arrive to Amritsar, in Punjab, another big city... Well, with 13 million people less, we are improving!! The golden temple is the most important place, the sijs thinks is the holyest temple, and they have to go there at least once in a lifetime to pray. So there we were this morning, to see the sunrise, because the temple change the colors during the day, like the Taj Mahal do. We don't know if the principal atraction was the temple o were ourselves, at that time in the morning we were the only tourists. We send you a picture with a family who wanted to have a photo with us, they asked were we were from, wich other countries had we visit...
The temple looked like a christmas tree, full os lights, because they were celebrating a festival honouring their most important guru. With the sunrise they switch off the lights, and the we could see the golden walls.
