Goibibo’s ‘Go on India’ campaign highlights the spiritual facet of tourism with Amritsar


Amritsar is the next destination for the on-going 500 days campaign

The ‘Go on India’ campaign introduced by Goibibo.com this year has cherry-picked Amritsar as their next destination to promote tourism in India. Under this campaign, they have selected 500 scenic cities of the country and share vital insights about the flora, fauna, tradition and culture of this city. Furthering the campaign, they are also offering 25% discount on hotels in the city empanelled with them. 
      
Sanjay Bhasin, MD Goibibo.com said, “Tourism being one of the main commercial activities in Amritsar, the city contributes immensely to the country’s tourism industry every year. Considering the connectivity of the city by all modes of transport and the number of internal and foreign visitors, it had to be part of our select list of 500 chosen cities.”

Amritsar is one of the largest cities of Punjab state in India. Amritsar stands head and shoulders above any other city; its status is elevated and sanctified by the presence of the respected Golden Temple. The city has more to it along with sights like the Jallianwala Bagh, site of the gruesome massacre of defenseless Indians by British troops. A major tourist attraction these days is the Indo-Pak border crossing at Wagah, just a short distance from Amritsar, with its elaborate change-of-guards drill amidst patriotic fervour and celebratory fanfare by both sides.

Goibibo.com initiated the Go on India campaign to inspire travel enthusiasts to explore the splendour and diversity of India. Each day, a new code shall be released for one place and users can avail the special discounted rates using this code. The code for Amritsar is HOTAMR.
