Pakistan to establish ‘Darshan Resort’ close to Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Kartarpur
Lahore: The government of Pakistan’s Punjab province has planned to establish a “Darshan Resort” close to Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Kartarpur to provide a view of the holy site to the Sikh pilgrims staying there.
Inaugurated in 2019, the Kartarpur corridor links Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan — where Sikhism founder Guru Nanak Dev lived and died at the start of the 16th century — to Dera Baba Nanak shrine in Punjab’s Gurdaspur district. The 4-km corridor provides visa-free access to Indian pilgrims to visit Gurdwara Darbar Sahib.
“The construction of a five-storey Darshan Resort will start next month with an estimated cost of 300 million PKR ,” Punjab Tourism Secretary Raja Jahangir Anwar said on Monday.
