Reaching the City Centre

Reaching the City Centre

For a short visit, plan your road journey or walk around the central area and your onward route. The city centre is a separate destination from Jalandhar City Junction, so allow for each journey in your plans.

The Guru Gobind Singh Stadium visitor guide covers the venue itself.
