We're back with another India video and this time we’ll be travelling to the India-Pakistan border to watch the border closing ceremony at the Attari-Wagah border before trying Pakistani food for the first time. This event is a must-do when you come to Amritsar! This ceremony marks the closing of the India-Pakistan border for the day and people travel from far and wide to witness the display of military showmanship dominated by stomping, high kicks, and exaggerated movements.

To be honest, it reminded me of attending a live sporting event! It was high-energy and a lot of fun, with plenty of cheering, dancing, flag-waving and singing. Afterwards, we went to a local restaurant where we tried Pakistani food for the first time. We had chicken kebab, daal, mutton curry, and I was also challenged to eat a whole chilli.
So join us for a fun evening of live entertainment at the border along with some delicious Pakistani food!

INDIA-PAKISTAN Border Closing Ceremony at Attari-Wagah + Trying PAKISTANI FOOD For the First Time!
The Indian-Pakistan border ceremony takes place daily at the Attari-Wagah border just before sunset.
This military event is performed by India’s Border Security Force and the Pakistan Rangers, and it’s something that has been done since 1959.
Technically, the whole purpose behind the ceremony is to lower the national flag and officially close the border for the night, however, what takes place is a lively display featuring marching, stomping, and plenty of high-kicks, while the crowd cheers, and breaks into song and dance.
It’s energetic, it’s theatrical, and it’s an event you cannot miss whether you find yourself travelling in Amritsar or across the border in neighbouring Lahore!
In terms of trying Pakistani food for the first time we had the following food items at Sarhad Restaurant (Border Restaurant) Restaurant:
Chicken Seekh Kebab
Dahi K Kebab
Lahori Naan
Peshawari Naan
Mutton curry
Chicken curry
Dal
Lahori Khalifa Khatai
