Gurudwara Guru Ka Taal Agra
Chennai - Delhi Hwy, Maharishi Puram Colony, Agra, Uttar Pradesh 282007
Sikh shrine on a Mughal reservoir where the ninth Guru surrendered to defend religious freedom.
This guide to the Gurudwara Guru Ka Taal in Agra opens in 1675, when the ninth Sikh Guru, Tegh Bahadur, walked toward this Mughal-era reservoir intending to be arrested by Emperor Aurangzeb's authorities. It follows Aurangzeb's campaign to force conversion on his Hindu subjects, the Guru's open defense of their faith, and what became of him after he was taken to Delhi. It also traces the reservoir itself, built decades earlier by Emperor Jahangir, and the shrine raised on its bank centuries later.
