The Golden Temple.

Amritsar, 16-05-1994. There are more sikhs in Amritsar as i have seen anywhere else in India but then Amritsar is the capital of their home state The Punjab and the place of The Golden Temple, Theit main Gurdwara. These guys all seem to be big and dapper, successful in life - never have i seen a sikh beggar in India - and they are rumoured to be great mecanics, to name but a few of their qualities. To do seem to develop a beer belly once they pass the age of 30/35 years of age, though. Their proud and manly bearing singles them out from the average hindu or muslim indian, also their women seem more feminine and beautiful. They are the most properous ethnic group in India and like i said, i have to as yet see a sikh beggar!!! I spent most of the day around The Golden Temple - free admittance for everyone - making sketches for my travel journals.
