Hotels in Punjab, India

Punjab, in northwestern India, has a climate of scorching summers (up to 45°C/113°F) and mild winters (around 10-20°C/50-68°F), with the best time to visit from October to March. The region is famous for the Golden Temple in Amritsar, where you can witness Sikh prayers and eat a free meal at the world's largest langar; you'll also find energetic Bhangra music at harvest festivals. In winter, explore Amritsar's narrow lanes for butter chicken and kulcha, while summer mornings are perfect for visiting the Wagah Border ceremony or touring Chandigarh's Rock Garden for shade and art.
