Sri Guru Amar Das Ji (the third Guru) stayed in Goindwal for 33 years where he established a new center for preaching Sikhism. At a distance of 25 km from Tarn Taran and similar from Kapurthala and 48-50 km from Amritsar Junction, Gurudwara Goindwal Sahib is a Sikh shrine situated at Goindwal Sahib town in Tarn Taran district of Punjab.  It is one of Punjab's major pilgrimage places and one of the best Amritsar tourist places. The town's location was an ancient east-west highway crossing the river Beas connecting Delhi and Lahore and the head of the most important ferries on the river Beas.

The gurdwaras in Nankana Sahib each mark a significant event in the life of the Guru, the most famous being Janam Asthan, which marks the exact place of his birth. The list of Gurdwaras in Nankana Sahib follows: Gurdwara Janam Asthan; Gurdwara Patti Sahib; Gurdwara Bal Lila; Gurdwara Kiara Sahib; Gurdwara Malji Sahib; Gurdwara Tambu Sahib; and Gurdwara Chhati Patshahi. Since the partition of India in 1947, it has been difficult for Sikhs to come to Nankana Sahib from India to pray in the gurdwaras. As late as the 1980s, the gates of the gurdwara remained closed to worshippers, but since then daily services have been held and bani recited. Recently, i.e. within the last two weeks, the Guru Granth was installed in the Gurdwara Chhevin Patshahi in Nankana Sahib, leaving only the Gurdwara Kiara Sahib without the sacred text. Wit
