Gurdwara Baba Atal is a famous Gurdwara of Amritsar. It is just a short walk from the famous Harmandir Sahib.
Architecture[edit]
Built some two centuries ago, the Baba Atal Gurdwara is a touching commemoration of the young life of Baba Atal Rai, the son of Guru Hargobind. Its nine storeys echo his nine years of life before his death in 1628.[1]
