Shree Guru Ram Rai Darbar Sahib - Gurudwara in Dehradun - Dehradun, India

A great Sanskrit School where students can connect with Indian culture. It is located in the heart of the city and is walking distance from Saharanpur Chowk

Shri Guru Ram Rai Darbar Sahib in Dehradun is a philanthropic organization of the Udaseen sect . Sri Guru Ram Rai ji, the eldest son of the seventh Guru of the Sikhs- Sri Har Rai ji, had established it for protecting and spreading the traditions, ideals and philosophies of Hinduism Dehradun owes its name and history to the emergence of Sri Guru Ram Rai ji who came to this then small , green Arcadian abode way back in 1676. This is based in Jhanda Mohalla and there is a very High Jhanda which is replaced every year around Holi. After Holi there is a Jhanda Mela every year where there are lots of shops near the Gurdwara which sell toys and other stuff. Enjoyed this paceful space. Lovely well cared for the garden with shaded paths about the Temple. this is a very nice temple and very well maintained and also not very crowded. It is less popular among the tourists. The unique thing is a Guru Granth Saheb which you have to use by pointing at a table. The number of the box which you touch is then located on the opposite page and read. It is supposed to tell you what your future holds in store for you. The Gurudwara is named after the elder son of seventh Sikh Guru Guru Har Rai. Guru Ram Rai is the founder of Dehradun. An annual "Jhanda fair" is held at this gurudwra near holi when lakhs of people visit the place. It is said that the Jhanda or the flag, itself mounts and stands erect during the fair. Recommnded this place.

Really beautiful historical place and quite clean & maintained but in the main city of Dehradun, Uttrakhand. Worth visiting and easily approachable from the Railway station, just a walking distance. The best thing is that the heritage has been preserved and well maintained.

All the history of dehradun revolve arround this place, the most beautiful place at the heart of dehradun. There are beautiful historic paintings and inscriptions on the walls of this place. There is soo much to explore there. Like garden and ponds with beautiful fishes. And the markets near that place is too much crowdy but still aura and calmness of this place is pure and pious.

One of the prettiest and pleasent place in dehradun. I really loved the calmness and vibe here. One is not allowed to rake photos here without permission.

My experience is not good. I went there with my sister for interview they took my whole day. Administration was not proper.

Gurudwara of Guru Ram rai Darbaar. Yearly fair is organized 4 days after Holi called Jhanda Mela on the birth anniversary of Guru Ram Rai.

Peaceful place, a must visit for everyone if u visiting dehradun. Historical place. U will get lot of information about Islamic Architecture While Sikh architecture, in general, drew inspiration from Mughal styles, the Darbar Sahib was unique in that it relied more heavily on elements that give it the appearance of a mosque than a conventional gurudwara.
