Gurudwara Mata Kaulan

The sacred shrine of Mata Kaulan is also known as the Gurudwara Mata Kaulan and is located on the west side of the Golden Temple in Amritsar. Next to the Gurdwara Sahib, there is a pool named Kaulsar Sarovar. The memorial was named after Bibi Kaulan, a holy lady who was raised as a Muslim but then adopted Hinduism later in her life, becoming a faithful disciple of Guru Har Gobind. Bibi Kaulan's father disowned her and pronounced her dead for her devotion towards Guru Hargobind Ji. After she was abandoned, Sant Mian Mir, a resident of the same village, secretly brought her to Amritsar, where she spent the rest of her life and was devoted to Guru Har Gobind while performing religious duties. She was later laid to rest in the western area of Gurudwara Kaulan. It is believed that Guru Har Gobind Singh Ji advised all the devotees to first take a dip in Kaulasar Sarovar before going to Gurudwara Shri Harminder Sahib. While touring Amritsar visit this place to feel the peace.
