Duddhi




Duddhi is a major Sikh site located about 7 km south-west of Ladva, Kurukshetra District. This place is famous for the historical shrine Gurdwara Diorhi Sahib. Tradition has it that Guru Tegh Bahadur, the ninth Sikh Guru, had camped here for a few days.

Built in 1923, the marble floored gurdwara has a beautiful, spacious hall. With a domed pavilion, this gurdwara arranges community meals and kirtans on the first of every Bikrami month. During the occasion, devotees from every nook and corner of the region throng at Duddhi. Every year on Magh 20 (February), an annual fair is also celebrated with great fervor.

Chandigarh Airport is the nearest airport and Kurukshetra Junction Railway Station is the major railhead nearby.
