Trip to Amritsar – Part II – Through the lens

Golden Temple, Trip to Wagah, Wagah Border ceremony
Golden Temple, Trip to Wagah, Wagah Border ceremony

These are some of the places and events I described in my previous post.

For those with an inquisitive mind, the pictures of the ‘cheering-crowd’ that closely resembles the gathering you’d find in a stadium or a cricket-ground in India, was taken at the Wagah border.

I was surprised to find an audience this large, considering the ceremony occurs every day.
With ‘the-more-the-merrier attitude’ and in true Indian spirit, the military chore soon resembled a Bollywood song sequence with patriotic numbers belting out from loud speakers.
 
Then, towards to end of the ceremony, it became a cheerleading-competition – With a crowd that strong on the Indian side of the border, need I say who won the day’s title? :)
