In this city, it is possible to meet people from all walks of life, pilgrims from all over the world. It even happened to Katia to come across someone dressed as a warrior in the street, with a dagger!
In Amritsar, it is also possible to eat in the largest canteen in the world. Everyone is welcomed and fed for free. Imagine, they serve between 50,000 and 100,000 meals a day! (Imagine the size of the kitchens).

Unfortunately, in the days that followed, our adventurer fell victim to food poisoning. Result, direction the hospital then repatriation in France. Return to Nancy. This is obviously a great disappointment for Katia who wanted to see more of the Himalayas. Maybe next time !
