The Retreat Ceremony


Patriotism is not short, frenzied outbursts of emotion, but the tranquil and steady dedication of a lifetime

Wagah about 28 kms, from Amritsar is the only border crossing between India and Pakistan.It an interesting and unique experience especially at sunset when the 'Retreat' ceremony takes place with the BSF on the Indian Side of the Border. This ceremony has taken place every day since partition in 1947 and was a truly unique experience.
