Amritsar, India

A golden temple that shelters and feeds tens of thousands of visitors a day regardless of faith, a border ceremony each evening performed with a theatrical stomp that draws its own crowd, and a langar kitchen that runs entirely on volunteers and never once turns anyone away.

The best time to visit Amritsar is Nov–Mar, when typical daytime highs reach about 19°C (66°F).
