Gateway to Sikhism proudly launches Gurudwaras of World @ www.worldgurudwaras.com on auspicious day of Khalsa Sajna Divas , Vaisakhi April 14th 2012. Worldgurudwaras.com will strive to be most comprehensive directory of Historical Gurudwaras and Non Historical Gurudwaras around the world.
The etymology of the term 'gurdwara' is from the words 'Gur (ਗੁਰ)' (a reference to the Sikh Gurus) and 'Dwara (ਦੁਆਰਾ)' (gateway in Gurmukhi), together meaning 'the gateway through which the Guru could be reached'. Thereafter, all Sikh places of worship came to be known as gurdwaras.
It is a work in progress and We strongly urge the Sikh Cyber Community to contribute to this project by submitting contact information, details, images of Gurudwaras around the world to make this a comprehensive directory.

This Gurdwara is located in the famous Raja Bazaar of Rawalpindi. It was the center of Akali Sikhs. The double storeyed building of Gurdwara Sahib is very big and beautiful. The rooms for pilgrims, Langarhall and prakashasthan are very elegant. Besides agricultural land, shops inside the city are endowed to this place. Presently a Govt High School is functioning in this place.
