In Golden Temple New we took you for a virtual tour of Hari Mandir. We present pics of the Golden Temple at various times starting from 5 to 8am and 5pm to 11pm. U see temple with 156 feet watch towers in the background. Pic taken about 5am. Tree area is Dukh Bhanji Sahib. Same pic taken about 5.45am as the sun was about to rise.

Left is Golden Temple, behind that light you see is northern tower, extreme right of pic is east side entrance. An early morning view of the Akal Takht. It was built by 6th Guru Har Govind (1606-1644) and has been the nerve centre of Sikh Dharam ever since. The young Guru armed and drilled some of his sturdy disciples. He sat in the Akal Takht in princely attire, administered justice like a king in court and narrated stories of deathless bravery while professional bards sang ballads of unrivalled heroism esp of the Rajputs. A late evening view of the Akal Takht. Bottom of pic u can see shamina thus not able to get top to bottom view.
