The gilded domes of the Gurudwara Bangla Sahib dominate the skyline to the west of Connaught Circus, New Delhi’s commercial core. In contrast to the hubbub of the nearby shopping malls, an atmosphere of devotion and spirituality prevails inside this marble-lined complex – the principal place of worship for the capital’s Sikh population - making it an ideal acclimatiser if it’s your first day in India. Join the worshippers filing past the central shrine to the shimmering waters of the great Sarovar tank behind, followed by a complementary lunch of dal and chapatis in the temple canteen, or ‘langar’.
