    The Gurudwara was named after a massive well dug by Guru Arjan Dev to mark the birth of his son and successor Guru Hargobind. The Gurudwara complex also consists of a divan hall and all-day langar where visitors can enjoy a meal as they visit this fascinating site. One can take a direct bus (74663 Atari) from Amritsar to Chheharta or book a local taxi to reach the Gurudwara. Basant Panchami in the month of Magh attracts lakhs of devotees.

    Gurudwara Chheharta Sahib, 7 km west of Amritsar (31° 38'N, 74° 52'E), is named after a well that Guru Arjan (1563-1606) had sunk. The well was so wide, and the water supply so abundant, that six Persian wheels installed around the interior of its circufrence could operate simultaneously. Hence its name Chheharta, lit. having six (chhe) Persian wheels (hart or harta). The well has now been covered, but its water is still pumped to feed the main tank of the Gurdwara. Now developed as an industrial township, Chheharta falls within the revenue limits of Vadali Guru, a village one km to the south, where Guru Arjan stayed during 1594-97 Now developed as an industrial township, Chheharta falls within the revenue limits ofVadali Guru, a village one km to the south, where Guru Arjan had stayed during 1594-97.The Gurdwara complex, set on a 6acre walled compound, includes a divan hall, with a square sanctum in the middle enclosed by a brass palisade. Above the sanctum is a square room with a lotus dome topped by a goldplated pinnacle. Two Nishan Sahibs, Sikh flags, atop 25metre tall flagposts, one on either side, stand in front of the hall. The Gurdwara is managed by the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee through a local committee, which also controls other historical shrines ofVadali Guru. Congregations held on the fifth day of the light half of every lunar month attract large gatherings. The largestattended is the fair held on this day in the month of Magh (JanuaryFebruary) which marks the popular Basant Parichami festival.

    This gurdwara is very beautiful surrounded by beautiful gardens.. convenient parking is also available inside this gurdwara.. The only problem of here is that the road that leads to this gurdwara is very congested.. there are alot of shops on the both side of the road so it is good to visit here during weekdays not on weekends

    Very good place for large meetings and professional get together events. Overall ambience of the surrounding and dine area is good. Sitting is comfortable, allows for both small and large groups to adjust. Food and snacks preparation is good.
