Being a professional is always on the go. Many of us are not lucky enough to take months off from work to leave our troubles behind and travel, we have to find time in between working long shifts, paying bills and everyday adult responsibilities.
Short Trips (Weekend trips) really work to boost inner strength.
People often ask me “how you travel despite a busy schedule”?
My answer to this, “I manage”.
Work will never come to an end., nor my love for exploring this world.
Travelling is the most important part of my life - With so much of the world to see, there’s no point in putting off my travel ambitions for a hypothetical future where I will have more time. Luckily, there are a few things i can do to make the most of my limited time off and travel with a busy work schedule.
Sometimes a weekend out of town can be enough to temporarily sate my travel lust. If possible, for me to take off Monday or Friday, i enjoy a long weekend far away from my normal routine.
Beginning week of Feb, I traveled to Amritsar for a weekend trip. North India simply wows during winters.
Full night drive from Delhi to Amritsar, extremely foggy.
Risk!
We all were terrified during 10hrs of foggy driving. But it was fun.
I traveled with my family. We all were tired & sleepy.
But it’s Amritsar serene location.
Amritsar is a city in the north western Indian state of Punjab, 28 kms from the border with Pakistan. Amritsar is the largest and most important city in Punjab and is a major commercial, cultural, and transportation centre. It is also the centre of sikhism , holy place for sikhs Harminder Sahib famously known as Golden Temple.
In 2 Days, I coveredd the following places:
1.) Golden Temple
2.) Jallianwala Bagh
3.) Partition Museum
4.) Interpretation Center
5.) Heritage Street/ Market
6.) City on Pedals (Bicycle Tour)
7.) Maharaja Ranjit singh Museum
8.) Mata Lal Devi Mandir
9.) Fort Gobindgarh
It isn't over here, various things are there which we are unaware about Amritsar,
