Gurudwara Guru Ki Kothri Ji
Amritsar · Punjab
Gurdwara Guru Ki Kothri is located in the village of Chola, 5 km from Sirhali Kalan and 24 km from Taran Taran City, in Taran Taran District, Punjab.
When the Fifth Sikh Guru, Shri Guru Arjun Dev Ji, traveled from Sirhali Kalan to this village, Mata Numberdaarni offered him a kothri (small room) to stay in. Guru Ji resided here for approximately 2 years, 5 months, and 13 days with his wife, Mata Ganga Ji, and their young son, Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji.
The well where Guru Arjun Dev Ji used to bathe still exists. This Gurdwara is also known as Gurdwara Mata Ganga Ji Da Asthan.
