Amritsar is in the Indian state of Punjab, and is just 28 kms from the border with Pakistan. Amritsar is an old walled town with the gilded Golden Temple at it’s centre, a holy Sikh religious compound. This is where pilgrims come to bathe and the city is a spiritual and cultural centre for the Sikh religion. It is absolutely magnificent, serene and extraordinary. The sun setting, or rising, is just astonishing, and the colours and scenes are magnificent.

The Sikh shrine attacks more visitors than the Taj Mahal. Tourists flock here for spiritual reasons, coming from all over India and beyond to bathe, find their own sense of peace and spirituality. You can keep coming here, time and time again, and never get used to its beauty.

Amritsar is a spiritual city. It also has a commercial side to it of course, which includes tourism, fabrics, carpets, handicrafts, agriculture, light engineering and the service trades. There are large companies and corporates but there are also thousands of small businesses owned by families and entrepreneurs.

Tourism is of course the staple of the economy. There are many hotels, both heritage hotels and chain hotels, as well as small guesthouses and havelis. Visitors here will normally visit the Jallianwala Bagh, Maharaja Ranjit Singh Museum, The Golden Temple as mentioned above, Durgiana Temple, Wagah border which leads into Pakistan and the Mandir Mat Lal Temple. They will also just wander the streets and take in the sounds, colours and smells of India.

The service industry is large and with service comes IT. Even a city liked Amritsar, so steeped in history and culture, has a need for IT, and there are several IT and software companies in the city. IT can only grow here, especially as the service or hospitality industry grow, as do the other economies. If you look at a recruitment agency page, they are mostly looking for people in hospitality, but also people who can design websites and who understand SEO and SEM.
