Gurdwara Guru Ka Mahl is a historic gurdwara located at Amritsar. Built in 1573 by Guru Ram Das, the fourth Sikh guru, the Gurdwara has daily worship services and attracts a large number of devotees. This is the spot where Guru Arjan Dev, the fifth Sikh Guru, was installed as Guru in 1581. He also got married here. Besides, Guru Hargobind lived here for a short time and Guru Tegh Bahadur was born here.

There is a large rectangular hall where the Holy Guru Granth Sahib is seated. The birth anniversary of Guru Tegh Bahadur is celebrated with much pomp and merriment.
