Gurdwaras in Mandi and Rawalsar
Pradesh situated in Mandi and Rawalsar. Both these Gurdwaras
are also associated with the travels of Guru Gobind Singh.
Mandi was visited by him when Raja Sidh Sen had invited him.
This Gurdwara is notable as some of Guru’s belongings are still
preserved here. The same are a Bed, Rabab (musical instrument),
a Bandukh (Musket/Gun), a Gun Kuppy (powder horn) and a
Talai (Mattress). Mandi Sahib Gurdwara can be contacted on
Phone no. 01905-235535. Rawalsar is another place where the
Guru stayed to hold a meeting with the Rajas of Hill States for
giving a united fight to the Mughals. The location of this Gurdwara
is on a hill side above the lake (this is a natural lake with floating
islands at aptitude of 1360 sea level ) and can be easily seen from
a great distance due to its pristine blue colour and massive domes.
There is a water tank near the Gurdwara where the people take a
holy dip. The Namdhari sect among the Sikhs give this Gurdwara
great importance as it is mentioned in a compilation known as
Sau Sakhi (stories compiled from the life of Guru Gobind Singh).
This Gurdwara can be contacted on Phone no. 01905-240233.
