Skywatch Friday - Gurdwara Dam Dama Sahib

This white structure attracted my sight from the terrace of Humayun's tomb. The grey sky, green palms and the red sandstone railing, enhanced its beauty. Only after browsing on Google, I got to know it is Gurdwara Dam Dama Sahib, and its historical importance.
This place dates back to 1707 and commemorates the meeting place of Tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh and Bahadur Shah, then Prince Muazzum. Prince, who wanted to possess the throne of his father Aurangzeb after his death by defeating his brother, met Guru Gobind here, seeking his help and planning strategy for battle.
Though I couldn't visit the Gurdwara, am sure its one of those beautiful worship places..
