Gobindgarh
Fort that spreads across 43 acres is a landmark attraction in Amritsar. Tracing
its roots to the 18th-century, the fort has
remained witness to much bloodshed that has marked the city’s history. But even
today, it stands strong. Until recently, the fort was under the occupation of
the army. But as of February 2017, it has been opened to the public as a live
heritage museum. Among the major attractions of the fort are a coin museum,
ancient warfare museum, haat bazaar, and whispering walls.
A unique attraction of the place is Sher
e Punjab, a 7D show developed on the life of Maharaja Ranjit Singh,
which will take you back in time to the 19th century
and leave you with an immersive experience. You can also take part in games and
live dance performances and win prizes. Various food stalls around the place
will ensure that you gorge upon mouth-watering delicacies during your visit to the fort. Whether you are a history buff or not, visit this fort
for a thrilling experience.
