Thread: best pilgrim place

which places are best for a pligrimage?
where can you find the best churches & temples.

temples you better choose south india especially tamilnadu and karnataka they have a lot....most of the temples here are old and fabulous

I feel that piligrimage sites are commercialized today. There are separate queues for rich people and poor people. In the eyes of God all people are one - but the "people managing the the Gods" have created the disctinction anyway. Hence I am rather averse to visit piligrimage sites.

The only sites that I have visited are:

- Somnath Temple (3 times)
- Dwarka (twice)
- Vaisho Devi (once)
- SaptaShringi Devi (near Nasik, 3 times)
- Shegaon (near Akola, twice when I was young)

I believe that God resides within us and if we pray true to ourselves, we will achieve the same happiness. I live so near Shirdi but I am never inclined to go there.

Vaishno Devi is a good piligrimage place to visit and it is very popular amoung Indians around the world.
One of my favourite places to visit is Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) in Amritsar, Punjab. The place gives you a peace of mind, the temple is absolutly beautiful, no matter what time of the year or time of day you visit.

I second that...nothing is peaceful than the Harminder Sahib....last sunday I visited Majnu ka Tilaa gurudwara that's one is also good.

if you want to visit gurudwaras then delhi and punjab are choices where you can visit gurudwaras like
Bangla Sahib (New Delhi)
Rakaab Ganj (New Delhi)
Sees Ganj (Delhi)
Tikana ji sahib (Delhi)
Gurdwara Majnu Ka Tilla (Delhi)

Gurdwara Bath Sahib, (Dist. Gurdaspur)
Gurdwara Janamasthan Baba Buddha, (Dist. Amritsar)
Gurdwara Bir Baba Buddha, (Dist. Amritsar)
Gurdwara Kaulsar, (Dist. Amrtsar)

and if you want to visit church then in delhi you can go for CP wala church
and Goa/ Old Goa is full of very old churches and in north india you can go to Shimla too

for temples you can go to
vaisno devi
haridwar, rishikesh.

and the mosque is in delhi jama masjid
and ajmer sharif
thats the list which i like and i have seen all places xcpt from vaishno devi

Yes Ajmer Sharrif is another place to visit, its a very different atmosphere from other temples and you get a a sense of satisfaction when visiting.

i got some good pics of ajmer sharif. check this link
