This place is heaven on earth!


- the temple's architecture draws both on Hindu & Muslim artistic styles and represents a coevolution of the two

- it has marble sculptures...golden gilding...& large quantities of precious stones

- on a jewel studded platform lies the Adi Grantha the sacred scripture of the sikhs.

This temple is beautiful....any one been? discuss the golden temple in here....
