People go on a pilgramage to refect, pray or just get close to God and ask for forgiveness. People hope to get the result they want. In some religions a pilgramage is a key part of the religious beliefs and is 'required' for all practicing that religion.
The Sikhs of India visit the golden temple, as it is their most holy place of worship. It is situated at the city of Amristar in the Punjab.

The Golden Temple according to me should be included in the wonders of the world. The Golden Temple is the sacred place and it is the symbol of prosperity in India. It is a religious place which has a very rich history. Also the main gurudwara is built in the water. That's the main attraction of the Golden Temple and of course as the name suggests it is coated with gold.
people die
because specifically it says that it is a golden temple and when you type golden temple in google the colour of the temple would be golden.
Sikhs just pray and worship God and sing hymns from their holy scripture Guru Granth Sahib when they visit the Golden Temple and they do the same when they visit any other Gurudwara(Sikh place of worship). The reason why Sikhs go to Golden Temple is not because of pilgrimage,in fact Sikhism as a religion is opposed to pilgrimage. Sikhs go to Golden Temple as it is among the first Gurudwara built and also among the oldest Gurudwara. Furthermore, Golden Temple was the first Gurudwara where Sikhs holy scripture was first installed by Guru Arjan Dev Ji, the fifth Guru of Sikhs. Also Golden Temple is historically the cultural center of Sikhism.
Yes, in fact not just Hindus but anyone from any religion or background can visit Golden Temple. Golden Temple actually is also a tourist spots for many foreign tourists. Only thing you have to follow is the instruction that the Golden Temple and all Sikh place of worship ( Gurudwara) follows while visiting the Gurudwara.

The Golden Temple is used by Sikhs mostly. But other people from other religions or countries are not forbidden to use it. It is open to all.
