The Pray

High above the Golden Temple a woman prays at the top of the Baba Atal Sahib Ji. The 9 storied, 108-foot tower was constructed between 1778 and 1784 in memory of Atal Rai, a son of Guru Hargobind. The boy was said to have committed suicide at the age of 9 on this spot after being scolded by his father for performing a miracle. The temple's complex is home to several smaller holy sites rarely visited by foreigners.Baba Atal Sahib Ji holds a great place in the Sikh History.We can view all Gurudwara of amritsar city from Baba Atal Sahib Ji 9 storied tower.
