O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Sikhovska tradicija kaže da je Baba Bakala mjesto gdje je Guru Tegh Bahadur proveo devet godina u dubokoj meditaciji prije nego što je identificiran kao deveti sikhovski Guru. Središnje svetište gurudvare još uvijek sadrži točan bunar iz kojeg je svakodnevno crpio vodu, koji se sada smatra izuzetno svetim.
Istaknuto: Za razliku od većine gurudvara, ova okružuje bunar star 300 godina koji je Guru Tegh Bahadur koristio za svoja svakodnevna umivanja. Još uvijek možete vidjeti originalnu ciglenu konstrukciju i usko stubište koje vodi dolje do vode, gdje vjernici tiho sjede u meditaciji baš kao što je on nekoć činio.
Insajderski savjeti
- Bring a scarf or handkerchief to cover your head, as required at all gurudwaras, and remove shoes before entering the main hall.
- The best photo spot is from the parikrama (circumambulation path) around the sarovar, where you can capture the reflection of the white dome in the water.
- Skip visiting during major Sikh holidays like Guru Tegh Bahadur's martyrdom day in November, when crowds swell past 50,000 and queues stretch for hours.
- Arrive before 9 AM to experience the soothing morning kirtan (hymn singing) in the main hall without the midday rush.
