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.
Historical Gurudwaras in Pakistan
Gurudwara Tahli Sahib,Rehsema Distt Sialkot
Gurudwara Tahli Sahib,Rehsema Distt Sialkot |

This is the third shrine of Guru Hargobind Ji in this village. When Guru
Dev Ji reached this place, the marriage of daughter of a Gosai Sadhu
was being solemnized. Guru Dev Ji went to his house at his supplications.
The pond where he washed his feet was turned into a place of worship.
Guru Ji presented the Sadhu one hundred rupees in a purse along with
a sehli (local) cap. These three items were kept here as relics.
The shrine called Tahli Sahib is located at the eastern side of the
village. Guru Sahib stayed here while on his way to Kashmir and during
his stay he had tied his horse with a sheesham (siccoo) tree and thus
it came to be called Tahli Sahib. The shrine looks like a house and some
people live in it.
The village is now known as Salehpur. Its P.S. is Chaprar of tehsil and
district Sialkot.
This darbar was built by the Sangat of Amritsar. A fair used to be held
on 1st, 2nd and 3rd of Har. 3 ghumaon of land is endowed to the Gurdwara.
