Description
The book provides complete details about all the Gurdwaras and memorials that exist in Pakistan.
An invaluable Great Heritage of the Sikhs was left behind in Pakistan at the time of partition of India in 1947.
While Sikh elders may have a hazy memory of a few of the important Gurdwaras, children born after 1947 have absolutely no idea of this priceless heritage as no systematic documentation of the shrines and Gurdwaras left in Pakistan has been provided to Indians so far.
This book provides complete details about all the Gurdwaras and memorials that exist in Pakistan. While all of them are important from historical point of view, there are some Gurdwaras and memorials which are more significant as they relate to some important events in the lives of the Gurus. The book contains plates of the gurus and the Gurdwaras and memorials as per authentic historical records.
