Durgiana Temple In Amritsar

This newly built temple derived inspiration from the mesmerising architectural style of the famous Sikh shrine, the Golden Temple. Just like the Golden Temple, Durgiana Temple is built in the middle of a lake. A bridge, similar to that of Golden Temple, is built across the lake, which provides access to the main temple area. The the structure of the dome, and the canopies also resembles that of the Golden Temple. After the construction of the temple was completed, Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya inaugurated the auspicious temple by himself.
