Description
At the designated time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Amritsar and board a vehicle to attend the Wagah Border Closing Ceremony. This event features the lowering of the flags of India and Pakistan up close.
After a drive of about 40 minutes, we will arrive at the Wagah-Attari border. This ceremony has been held daily since 1948. Upon arrival, we will sit on the bleachers and enjoy a welcome drink. During the ceremony, you will witness the closing of the border fence as border guards salute each other and perform various military movements and formations.
While watching the closing of the Wagah border, we will explain the history behind this ritual. It is also known as the "Beating Retreat Ceremony". Each evening before sunset, Indian and Pakistani soldiers participate in this 30-minute event to display their patriotism and camaraderie.
Finally, after 4-5 hours of enjoying this ceremony at the Wagah-Attari border, we will return you to your hotel in Amritsar and conclude the tour.
