What does it look like inside the golden temple?

Answer 1

Inside the Golden Temple, also known as Sri Harmandir Sahib, the central shrine is adorned with intricate marble and gold decorations. The inner sanctum, called the Darbar Sahib, houses the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture of Sikhism. The walls are covered in gold leaf and intricate designs, with a large dome above the sanctum symbolizing the heavens. The overall ambiance is one of peace, spirituality, and reverence.

Answer 2

Early Hindu temples were small stone structures. They had flat roofs and contained only one or two rooms. In the Gupta period, though, temple architecture became more complex. Gupta temples were topped by huge towers and were covered with carvings of the god worshipped inside.

Buddhist temples of the Gupta period are also impressive. Some Buddhists carved entire temples out of mountainsides. The most famous such temple is at Ajanta. Its builders filled the caves with beautiful wall paintings and sculpture.

Answer 3

This is the first floor in the Golden Temple. Normally, it is a lot more crowded than this.

On the 2nd floor, it is mainly like a normal Gurdwara except there is a gap in the floor so you can see the Guru Granth Sahib downstairs.

On the roof there is a beautiful view over the lake.
