The Nada Sahib Gurudwara, located in the quiet foothills of the Shivalik range in Panchkula, Haryana, is an important Sikh shrine and attracts devotees all year round. However, the best time to visit Nada Sahib Gurudwara is between October and March, during the cooler months of the year. The temperature during these months is pleasant, ranging from 8 to 22 degrees Celsius, making it comfortable for visitors to explore and participate in the Gurudwara activities without facing the harsh summer heat or monsoon rains. Additionally, several Sikh festivals fall within this period, providing an opportunity for pilgrims to experience the Gurudwara’s vibrant religious events.
One of the most significant months for visiting is November, which hosts the festivities of Gurpurab – the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, the founder of Sikhism. This period witnesses the Gurudwara light up with enthusiasm, and the air fills with the melodies of Gurbani Kirtans. Devotees from around the world flock to the shrine to partake in the special prayers and langars (community meals). Moreover, the month of January is also ideal as it marks the celebration of Maghi, commemorating the martyrdom of the "Chali Mukte," the forty liberated ones. The Gurudwara buzzes with spiritual fervor, and visiting during these occasions provides a unique insight into the rich cultural and spiritual tapestry of Sikhism.
