Punjab is famous for its Golden Temple, rich Sikh culture, Bhangra dance, delicious food like butter chicken and lassi, and its role in India’s history. It is also known as the land of festivals and warm hospitality.

4-5 days are enough to explore Amritsar, Chandigarh, and nearby attractions. For a deeper cultural trip, 7 days is ideal. Extra days allow you to enjoy village life and local traditions.

Visiting the Golden Temple, watching the Wagah Border ceremony, exploring Chandigarh, enjoying Punjabi food, and experiencing village life are the best things to do in Punjab. Shopping for phulkari, juttis, and handicrafts is also a great experience.

The most iconic dish is Sarson da Saag with Makki di Roti, especially enjoyed in winter. Food lovers also relish Butter Chicken, which is creamy and full of flavour, and Amritsari Kulcha, a stuffed bread served with spicy chole. Refreshing lassi, often topped with cream, is a must-try drink. For vegetarians, dishes like Paneer Tikka.
