Just spend 5 min, you will learn much more about our country.
Being an Indian, we Should really know the Berlin wall of Asia, which is in Indo-Pak border. I hope many people might have come across this place, Wagah (mostly all north-west Indian knows this) through media or anything, But this blog will help many new people to know further about our esteemed country. Even though it is a small villiage in Punjab State, It has the power to give inspiration and patriotic feeling to all Indian by a single visit because it is the only place where fully armed Indian and Pakistan men shaking hands without any sort of mishap. Obviously I added in my list to visit in future
While surfing in net regarding 13/7, I saw one queer article about wagah, so i wanted to convey the important affairs precisely. Though India-Pakistan border is around 2900Km, the only entrance between Indian and Pakistan is Wagah and it is the village connecting Lahore and Amristar. The road connecting them is called as Radcliffe line. After the Independence, while dividing the country Wagah village was also divided , the west of wagah was given to Pakistan and eastern one was given to Republic India.
This place is famous because of the retreat ceremony to audience that is "lowering of flags" done by gumptious Indian B.S.F and Pakistan Rangers which has been held since 1959. It is the unusual parade done by both sides aggregating aggression, hostility, petulance and wrath. Men of each country do the parade with proper uniform and turban. Interesting thing I've noted down while seeing one video is the cheering up their own country, everyone shouted from the heart, one day I'll visit wagah before leaving my breath. If you ever visit Golden Temple in amristar, just visit Wagah border too as it only 30km away . And the timings of the ceremony changes depending on the sunset mostly 4-6.30. I'm sure you will be amazed by seeing this video. India-jai hind
