Gurdwara Dam Dama Sahib

Gurdwara Dam Dama Sahib is a Sikh temple located along the Outer Ring Road near Nizamuddin East, featuring white marble walls and traditional architectural elements of the faith. The building contains prayer halls, dining areas, and accommodation for pilgrims.

The temple commemorates a 1707 meeting between Guru Gobind Singh and Prince Muazzam that resulted in an alliance during the Mughal succession struggle. This encounter marked an important moment in the history of both leaders.

During major Sikh festivals, thousands of devotees gather here to pray together and share communal meals. The religious ceremonies shape how the temple is experienced throughout the year.

The site can be accessed through Nizamuddin East and is open to visitors of all backgrounds. It is easily walkable from the surrounding neighborhood.

The grounds once hosted elephant and bull fights during strategic discussions between the Guru and the future emperor. These dramatic contests took place during the 1707 meeting.
