About Koohni Sahib Gurdwara:
Located on the Chandigarh-Mansa Devi road, Koohni Sahib Gurdwara is not a very popular shrine, but has a unique story associated with it. Chandigarh Kuhni Sahib Gurdwara was originally known as Bageecha Sahib. It is over here that Guru Gobind Singh Ji along with his fellow warriors had taken a halt for a week. People are of the say that the Guru had come over here mainly to meet Mata Raj Kaur, wife of Ram Rai. She had left the Dehradun city just to stay away from her husband, who was supporting the Mughals. The story behind the naming of Gurudwara lies in the fact that while on his stay over here, Guru Gobind Singh rested on his elbow. Gurudwara Bageecha Sahib near Chandigarh is a must visit pilgrimage spot.
