Quila Anandgarh Sahib – The fortress built by Guru Gobind Singh Ji for protection and strategic defense.
Bouli Sahib – A sacred stepwell where Guru Gobind Singh Ji once took rest.
Virasat-e-Khalsa – A magnificent museum showcasing Sikh history and culture.
Guru Ka Lahore – The historic site associated with Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s wedding.
Parivaar Vichhora Sahib – A memorial symbolizing the tragic separation of Guru Gobind Singh Ji from his family.

A Spiritual Connection Through Gurbani
One of the most divine moments of the trip was when the students and staff recited Gurbani at Guru Ka Lahore with deep devotion. The session concluded with Ardaas for Charhdi Kala (eternal optimism and upliftment) of the Akal Family and Sarbat Da Bhala (welfare of all).
This pilgrimage was not just a trip—it was a soulful journey of learning, reflection, and devotion. The students returned with a deeper connection to Sikh values and a newfound appreciation for their glorious heritage.
