The visit was a wonderful experience. The laser show, the 7D show were very interfering and enjoyable. The turban museum was also informative and interesting. The highlight of the evening was the dinner at Kesariya Darbar. The ambiance, the food and the service were excellent.

We went here after the Wagah border and as it was weekday, only the 2 shows and pagri meuseum were open. Both shows are nice and enjoyable for kids to know the history of Amritsar and Maharaja Ranjit Singh. The ticket prices are quite high though, so you can take only the 7D show for the kids and watch the lazer show standing outside the garden area itself to save some cost.

Good place to visit while in Amritsar. 7D show is not mandatory so can opt a ticket to go around the place without it. No guides as such. Bhangra dance is great. Well maintained.

This fort highlights the life of Ranjith Singh and how he protected Amritsar and the Golden temple from invaders. They do have a Punjabi dance, a 7D show (worth it) and many museums at the fort. Must visit.

It has a good museum, offers few retail shops and eateries.

This is one to the places that has good attractions and a lot of history about Maharaj Ranjit Singh. The 7 D theatre is one of the best that I have seen in a long time with all the effects of the air, movement, sound and so forth. Alas, that the ticket only provides for access to 1 show only.
The light sound show both in English and Punjabi is also very good, but one does not need to pay for it as it is in the open.
The long walk from the ticket counter to the Fort has many historical facts on the sidewalk - do read those.

It is not worth it. These are animation movies. The chairs are quite old and tattered. The sound is also below average. Better a skip.
1. What is the age limit for children for the 7D show.
2. Also i had seen some rates online like simple entry and maharaja combo, is this pricing for local or foreigners

As far as I remember Fort entry starts around 11 am , you can enjoy exhibition ( 45 Min approx ) , Ammunition store ( 20 min approx ) 7 D show ( 40 Min Approx ), Food at Borthers Dhaba 40 Min Approx ( Famous one has a branch in there ) This would take at least 3 -4 hours . you can leave at the time you want .
Enjoy this is actually a heritage FORT !!
