Stop At: The Partition Museum, Town Hall, Amritsar 5 minute walk from Golden Temple, Amritsar 143001 India

One of the most unique reserves of India’s colonial history is preserved at the Partition Museum at Town Hall. The museum is a rich reserve of artifacts donated generously by those that survived the partition. As people migrated to their designated part of the bordered land, they carried with them the most valuable items as little of them that could be transported. These are the only pieces that remain as testament to the history that have been donated by the families.
