Places
to visit
Gurudwara 'Tuti Gandhi Sahib'
This Gurudwara was built in
honor of 40 soldiers of Majha
who died while fighting
gallantly for him. These
soldiers had deserted Guru
Gobind Singh during the siege of
Anandpur Sahib, but later
rejoined the Guru's army after
being looked down upon by their
women . It is said that the Guru
kissed all dead and the dying
and absolved them. The daily
prayers of the Sikhs contain
references to this incident.
Gurudwara Tibbi Sahib
Guru Gobind Singh ji used this
place to shoot arrows at the
enemies while fighting with
Moguls. It was here that the
Guru rested his weary limbs for
a while.
