Gangopi Gurdwara

Gilgit-BaltistanGurdwaraProtected
There is a big building on top of a small hill, about 1 km from the main cross-road of Skardu. It is known as Gurdwara Sri Chota Nanakana Sahib. Prakashasthan, langar hall, and rest rooms for Sikhs are on the hill. There are several shops on the main road below this building. These shops are owned by the Gurdwara. Sat Guru stayed at this place while he was on his way back from China. It is also called as Asthan Nanak Pir by the local people. The building is not in a good condition, Prakash Asthan has started collapsing and rest of the building wears a deserted look. Only the shops remain as they are looked after by the occupants.
