Gurdwara Bangla Sahib is a prominent Sikh temple located in the heart of New Delhi, India. Known for its stunning golden dome and tall flagpole, it is a spiritual and cultural hub for Sikhs and visitors alike. The gurdwara was originally a bungalow owned by Raja Jai Singh in the 17th century and became significant after the eighth Sikh Guru, Guru Har Krishan, stayed here during his visit to Delhi in 1664. He is remembered for his healing powers, and the gurdwara's sarovar (holy pond) is believed to have healing properties.
Architecturally, the complex is a blend of traditional Sikh and Mughal styles, featuring a large marble hall and an ornate entrance. The gurdwara is open to all, offering free meals in its langar hall, a practice of community service and equality. Visitors can also explore the museum and art gallery within the premises, making it a must-visit for those interested in spirituality and history.
