Gurudwara

Gurdwaras are not merely places of worship. They are also spaces of equality, service and community, where visitors are welcomed regardless of their religion or social background. The Guru Granth Sahib occupies the central place within every gurdwara, while the langar reflects the Sikh principle that everyone should sit and eat together as equals.

The gurdwaras featured here are located in two historically important regions of northern India. Akhnoor, situated in the Jammu region, has its own Sikh religious heritage and local places of worship. Delhi’s Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib, meanwhile, is one of the capital’s most revered Sikh shrines and stands in the historic Chandni Chowk area.
