1 Sights & Activities Golden Temple SIKH TEMPLE (hdawn-around 10pm) True to Sikhism s inclusive nature, everyone is welcome at the Sikhs holiest shrine. As when at any sacred site, dress and behave respectfully. Everyone must remove their shoes and socks, wash their feet (walk through the shallow foot- baths) and cover their head; scarves can be borrowed (no charge) and there are also plenty of people selling them for 10 an inexpensive souvenir of your visit. Tobacco and alcohol are strictly prohibited. Temple officials request tourists not to casually dangle their feet in the (holy) water tank but, rather, to sit cross-legged. Photography is only permitted from the Parkarma, the marble walkway surrounding the pool.
The ceremony starts at around 4.15pm in winter and 5.15pm in summer (but double- check, given that timings vary according to sunset). Cameras are permitted (free) but bags, large and small, are banned bag and pack avon co (although this is haphazardly enforced).
