Nada Sahib, Sikh temple in Panchkula district, India.
Nada Sahib is a two-story domed structure standing on the banks of the Ghaggar-Hakra River within the Sivalik Hills region. The complex includes a central prayer hall, courtyards for visitors, and dining spaces where meals are prepared and served daily to all who come.
The site marks where Guru Gobind Singh stopped in 1688 after the Battle of Bhangani while traveling from Paonta Sahib to Anandpur Sahib. This journey represented a turning point in early Sikh history and this location became revered as a result.
The name Nada Sahib is linked to Nada Shah Lubana, a villager said to have served Guru Gobind Singh and his followers here, after whom the Guru named the place. Every full moon day draws large crowds, and the Guru ka Langar serves community meals daily.
The gurdwara lies on the banks of the Ghaggar-Hakra River in the Sivalik Hills, about 23 km from Mohali and within Panchkula district. The complex has a brick courtyard, a two-story domed shrine, a large rectangular meeting hall, the Guru ka Langar, and rooms for pilgrims. The holy flag flies from a 105-foot staff near the site of the old shrine. Every full moon day draws large crowds.
The gurdwara's flag flies from a staff 105 feet (32 m) high beside the courtyard, close to the site of the original Manji Sahib. A Sikh heritage museum on the grounds displays Sikh history, and the PRASAD scheme allocated INR 25 crore (about US$3.3 million) to upgrade facilities around the shrine.
