Geography & terrain

Kartarpur Corridor lies in the Gurdaspur district of Punjab at the Dera Baba Nanak point, 40 km from Amritsar and 200 km from Delhi — the visa-free passage to the gurudwara of the Sikh faith's first shrine across the Ravi river in Pakistan.

History & culture

The corridor's story runs with the Sikh faith's founder — the site where Guru Nanak spent his last years and the gurudwara of Kartarpur Sahib across the border, with the corridor's 2019 opening of the visa-free pilgrimage; the passage's history of the 550th birth anniversary's initiative and the daily pilgrims' walk, with the Dera Baba Nanak's old gurdwaras, gives the Kartarpur Corridor its pilgrimage-crossing character.
