Kartarpur Sahib Travel Guide:  In Sikhism, there are numerous sacred sites spread throughout India, including Delhi. There is one additional location, though, that Sikhs regard to be the most significant and holy- the Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara located in Pakistan's Punjab.

The village of Kartarpur is located on the Ravi River's western bank. Here, Shri Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the first Sikh Guru, lived out his final eighteen years. As a result, the Sikhs regard this location as extremely sacred and revered.

For a long time, there was a demand for Kartarpur Sahib to open for Indians. This route was recently made available to Indians via a historic accord.
