GOLDEN TEMPLE - Chief house of worship for the Sikhs of India and their most important pilgrimage site, located in the city of Amritsar in Punjab state. Founded by Guru Ramdas (1574 – 81) and completed by Guru Arjan Dev in 1604, the temple has entrances on four sides, signifying a welcome to all creeds and castes. Though destroyed in the 1760s by Afghan invaders, it was rebuilt, and in the early 19th century it acquired its marble walls and gold-plated copper domes. The surrounding buildings include a meeting hall, reference library, and museum, as well as the shrine known as the Akal Takhat.
The official name of the Temple is Harmandir Sahib, which means literally "the Temple of God" -- from Hari: God and Mandir: temple. -

as many of them have said it is in amritsar, punjab, India.
if u know hindi... its name is "har mandir" sahib... means har kisi ka mandir... it is for every religion... that is why it has doors on all four sides.... because some religion says to have doors on east... others say to have them in west... so it has doors on all the sides... and there are many other things like these there...
i personally like the place a lot... u feel divine presence the moment u step in it..
