Gurdwara Handi Sahib is a revered Sikh shrine in Patna, marking the spot where Guru Tegh Bahadur stayed during his visit in the 17th century. The name 'Handi' refers to a cooking pot used to prepare langar (community meal) for the Guru. The gurdwara features a large prayer hall, a sacred pond (sarovar), and a museum displaying Sikh relics. Devotees and tourists alike come to pay homage, experience the serene atmosphere, and partake in the langar. The architecture combines traditional Sikh and Mughal elements, making it a culturally rich site.
