I still remember the moment our train pulled into Amritsar at dawn. The air smelled of marigolds and chai, and somewhere in the distance, a kirtan was playing from the direction of the Golden Temple. That morning changed how I thought about travel in India — and it made me realize that the classic golden triangle tour with Amritsar extension isn't just a popular itinerary. It's genuinely one of the most complete travel experiences you can have on the subcontinent.
