The founder of Sikhism, Guru Nanak (1469 - 1539 AD) was born at Rai Bhoeki Talwandi now known as Nankana Sahib situated in Punjab province. Nankana is located about 85 kilometers west of Lahore and 39 km south-west of Sheikhupura. This is the second holiest place for Sikh followers after Golden Temple at Amritsar and thousands of yatrees (Sikh visitors) visit the place and surrounding Gurdwaras where their Guru spent his childhood.
