Significant populations of Sikhs inhabited the largest cities in the Punjab such as Lahore, Gujranwala, Rawalpindi and Lyallpur (Faisal Abad).
Lahore, the capital of Punjab, was then and still is today the location of many important Sikh religious and historical sites, including the Samadhi of Maharaja Ranjit Singh.

Gurdwara Singh Sabha school
The Gurdwara in Faisalabad, Pakistan, is a historical Sikh temple that dates back to the pre-Partition era, when the city was known as Lyallpur. Established during the British colonial period, it served the spiritual and community needs of the Sikh population in the region. After the Partition of 1947, when most Sikhs migrated to India, the Gurdwara fell into disuse and was repurposed for other activities over time. In recent years, as part of efforts to preserve religious and cultural heritage, the site has drawn attention for its historical significance, with calls for its restoration and recognition as a symbol of interfaith harmony in Pakistan. It remains a testament to the rich multicultural history of Faisalabad
Kartarpur Gurdwara
Kartarpur, located in Narowal District of Pakistan’s Punjab province, holds great historical and religious significance as the site where Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, spent the last 18 years of his life. He established the first Sikh commune here in 1522 and worked towards promoting harmony and spiritual unity. The Gurdwara Darbar Sahib Kartarpur, built on the banks of the Ravi River, marks the place of his final resting. After the partition of India in 1947, Kartarpur became part of Pakistan, leaving it inaccessible to most Indian Sikhs for decades. In 2019, the Kartarpur Corridor was inaugurated, allowing visa-free access to Indian pilgrims, fostering goodwill between the two nations and reconnecting Sikhs to this sacred site
Nankana Sahib
Nankana Sahib, located in Punjab, Pakistan, is a historic city and the birthplace of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism. Originally known as Rai Bhoi Di Talwandi, it was renamed in honor of Guru Nanak. The city holds immense religious significance for Sikhs worldwide and is home to several sacred gurdwaras, including Gurdwara Janam Asthan, marking the site of Guru Nanak’s birth in 1469. During the partition of British India in 1947, many Sikh families migrated to India, but Nankana Sahib remained a prominent pilgrimage site. The Pakistani government has since taken measures to preserve its heritage, facilitating access for Sikh pilgrims, particularly during events like Guru Nanak’s birth anniversary. Today, it symbolizes interfaith harmony and serves as a bridge between Sikhism and Pakistan’s cultural history
Panja sahib
The historic site of Panja Sahib, located in Hasan Abdal, Pakistan, is a sacred pilgrimage destination for Sikhs worldwide. It is named after the “Panja,” meaning handprint, believed to be that of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism. According to Sikh tradition, during one of his travels, Guru Nanak stopped at this spot, where a local saint, Wali Qandhari, controlled the water supply. When denied water, Guru Nanak miraculously caused a stream to flow by lifting a rock, leaving his handprint embedded in it. The Gurdwara was built at this site in the 16th century, with significant additions made during the Mughal and British eras. Today, it remains a symbol of harmony and spiritual reverence, attracting thousands of devotees annually.
