1. Golden Temple, Amritsar, Punjab, India Covered in over a hundred kilograms of gold, the Golden Temple is one of the most magnificent structures in India. Besides being one of the quietest and most peaceful pilgrimage sites in India, it is also one of the cleanest parts of the country. The temple grounds are constantly swept and washed by hundreds of volunteers and the bathrooms were some of the cleanest I’ve come across so far. Water runs through a small pool at the entrance where you wash your feet before entering premises and shoes are not allowed anywhere inside the temple area. The temple is so clean, it hardly seems like India.
