The beating retreat ceremony at Wagah Border offers some of the fantastic glimpses of egregious nationalisms shown by the adjacent countries, Indian and Pakistan. Get ready to celebrate the macho hostility shared between India and Pakistan, if you are in Amritsar.
Several tourists visit the Wagah Border every day to witness the ceremony of lowering flags. The fact that Amritsar has a close proximity to the Wagah border, tourists are able to witness the daily military practice between India’s Border Security Force and Pakistan’s Pakistan Rangers since 1959. If you are in the city of Golden Temple, then must visit the sheer drama hosted at the check post of Attari - Wagah border in the evening.
