Mr Trudeau attended langar, which is the community kitchen of the Golden Temple. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee arranged for a specially crafted 24-carat gold-plated portrait of the shrine and a gold-plated 'Siri Sahib' (a small six-inch sword) that was presented to the Canadian PM along with a 'siropa' (robe of honour) and a shawl.
The Canadian prime minister is on week-long visit to India. Mr Trudeau is accompanied by wife Sophie Gregoire Trudeau and three children -Ella-Grace, Xavier and Hadrien and a delegation of ministers.
Here are the highlights of Justin Trudeau's visit to Amritsar:
In Meeting With Justin Trudeau, Amarinder Singh Raises "Khalistan Issue"After much speculation, a meeting between Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh took place at Amritsar today.
