Gurdwara Kartarpur

Gurdwara Kartapur

Kartarpura district Narowal, Pakistan was first established by Guru Dev Nanak Sahab in his early life. When Baba Guru Nanak Dev passed away, Hindu and Muslim raised their voice to perform their last pilgrimages according to their religion. That’s why a Samadh lies in the Gurdwara and grave lies on the premises as the reminder of this discord.
The Gurdwara is located near a small village named Kothay Pind on the west bank of river Ravi. This Gurdwara can also be seen from the Dehra Baba Nanak the other side of the border in India. These two places are the most holiest places in Sikhism. Now the government from both is deciding to let the Yatris come and visit both Gurdwaras without visa as it lies only 3km from each other.
