Gurudwara
paonta sahib:
The word 'Paonta' means 'Space for a foot hold'. This place holds
significance as it has been the holy Guru Gobind Singh's abode for over
4 years. It is here, where he penned the `Dasam Granth'. The Gurudwara
houses some interesting spots that traces the events in the life of Guru
Gobind Singh. There is Shri Talab Asthan where he disbursed salaries,
and the Shri Dastar Asthan where he judged the turban - tying
competitions. The Kavi Durbar was the venue of the poetic symposia. A
memorial dedicated to Kalpi Rishi, and a museum showcasing the pens of
the Guru and the weapons of those times, are also located within the
precincts of the Gurudwara.
