Gurdwara Pathar Sahib in Leh, Ladakh



This is the rock that hit Guru Nanak Dev Ji, threw by the demon.  It's said the rock turned to wax as it came into contact with his meditating body and his outline was melted into it. This is the exact position it came to rest and Gurdwara Pathar Sahib was built around it.  Maintained by Indian Army, it's located right outside of Leh, Ladakh.  Interestingly, the locals who are Buddhist majority, rever Guru Nanak Dev Ji and visit the gurdwara regularly.  To this day they refer to Guru Nanak as "Nanak Llama"
