<p class="C1">&#65279KH&#256R&#256, village 7 km northwest of Tarn T&#257ran (31º-27'N, 74º-56'E) along the Amritsar-Tarn T&#257ran road, has two historical <i>gurdw&#257r&#257s</i> dedicated to Gur&#363 Arjan (1563-1606), who sojourned here while the <i>sarovar</i> at Tarn T&#257ran was being dug.</p>
<p class="C1">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;GURDW&#256R&#256 MAÑJ&#298 S&#256HIB located inside the village marks the house where Gur&#363 Arjan used to stay. The shrine, a marble-floored hall with the sanctum at the far end, was constructed in 1925. Above the sanctum where the Gur&#363 Granth S&#257hib is seated on a canopied marble throne are two storeys of square rooms with a pinnacled dome on top. Near the southeastern corner of the building is an old well said to have been dug during the Gur&#363's stay in the village. A basement room, circular in shape and about 3 metres across with a supporting column in the centre of it, is said to be the spot where the Gur&#363 had sat in meditation.</p>
<p class="C1">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;GURDW&#256R&#256 DUKHNIV&#256RAN S&#256HIB, about 200 metres south of the village, is an octagonal room with a brick-paved terrace in front of it. To the east of it is the 15 metre square <i>sarovar</i>, originally a pond converted into a bathing tank during the time of Mah&#257r&#257j&#257 Ra&#7751j&#299t Si&#7749gh. There is another small <i>sarovar</i>, octagonal in shape, near the entrance gate.</p>
<p class="C1">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;	Both these gurdw&#257r&#257s are affiliated to the Shiroma&#7751&#299 Gurdw&#257r&#257 Parbandhak Committee.</p>
