Gurdwara Patalpuri

Gurdwara Patalpuri

This gurdwara has been built on the banks of the river Sutlej. It is situated across the railway tracks and is the place where residents of Keeratpur Sahib are cremated. Guru Hargobind and Guru Har Rai were cremated here and the ashes of Guru Harkrishan were brought from Delhi in 1644 and immersed here. A row of stalls line the road leading to the gurdwara. They sell interesting items like swords, daggers and staffs. Swords are priced at Rs 165. You have to bargain for a good deal.
