Peaceful. This place is a must go and worth the wait in the queue to go inside the Golden temple. We went during the day and in the evening. The night time view is amazing with the lights.

If you have time only to do ONE thing in Amritsar - go to the Golden temple...
allows people of all faiths, is a smooth experience - from the free facilities to leave your shoes at a secure room, to the donations and accepting the prasad....
You would be surprised to know that all tasks are done by people for free - nobody is paid anything!
a sublime experience - stand there and listen to the stories and history told by Sikh historians within the temple by the waters edge...

We were fast tracked as we did not have enough time. The volunteers were just superb. They were helpful, understanding and above all courteous. Lost for words about the experience of being inside.

Golden Temple needs no introduction and review.
This place is amazing, the moment you are in the premises, you are calm and composed.
They have facilities for footwear storage, luggage storage, langar (Community kitchen) which serves tasty meal.

I am not aware about free accomodations. Check out their website or any other site around Golden temple, who might offer subsidised dharmashala kind of stay. However, prasad around the temple complex and Langar food is absolutely without any cost, and is available 24 hours!
I want know if I suggest to do sewa for 40 days , so where I can stay instead hotel rooms
