Gurdwara Janam Asthan

Description:

Gurdwara Janam Asthan is one of the most significant Sikh pilgrimage sites in Pakistan. Located in the historic city of Nankana Sahib, the Gurdwara marks the birthplace of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of  Sikhism, and welcomes Sikh pilgrims from around the world throughout the year. The historic Gurdwara complex provides a peaceful setting for prayer, reflection and connection with the life and teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Pilgrims can spend time inside the main prayer areas, participate in religious observances and experience the atmosphere of one of the most important places connected with the origins of the Sikh faith.
Nankana Sahib becomes especially vibrant during Guru Nanak Gurpurab, when Sikh devotees from Pakistan and abroad gather for kirtan, prayer, langar and commemorative ceremonies. The main celebrations take place at Gurdwara Janam Asthan, with pilgrims also visiting other
historic Gurdwaras located throughout Nankana Sahib.
