Golden Temple is the popular name for Harmandir Sahib or Darbar sahib. Sikhism as a religion don't have any holy place and as such Golden Temple is not taken in that sense.But as Sikhism grew there were various places where the cultural and important events took place shaping the Sikh history as well as religion. Golden Temple is one of the important place as this was the first Gurudwara (Sikh place of worship) where Guru Granth Sahib Ji was first installed, this was the fisrt Gurudwara where Guru Arjan Dev Ji started doing Gurbani Veechar (contempleting on the words of th Spiritual Guide). Since then it has hold significance place, also it is also the place where the hymns of Guru Granth Sahib are sung throughout the day, usually from 2 A.M to 10 P.M.
