Pakistan holds some of the most sacred sites in Sikhism, and Lahore is the perfect base for a heritage pilgrimage. Here’s an overview for Sikh travelers and anyone drawn to this rich history.
In Lahore
Gurdwara Dera Sahib marks the site of Guru Arjan Dev’s martyrdom, beside the Samadhi of Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the great Sikh ruler — both within the historic core near the Fort and Badshahi Mosque.
Nankana Sahib
About 80 km from Lahore, Nankana Sahib is the birthplace of Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism — the faith’s holiest pilgrimage town, centred on Gurdwara Janam Asthan.
Kartarpur Corridor
Gurdwara Darbar Sahib at Kartarpur, where Guru Nanak spent his final years, is reachable via the special Kartarpur Corridor arrangement — a deeply moving site for pilgrims.
