Nanakmatta, Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand · 28.9406°, 79.8122°
A gurdwara in the Uttarakhand terai at a place formerly called Gorakhmata, a centre of the Siddh yogis. The town took its present name from Guru Nanak's visit, and the gurdwara was established in 1880.
What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.
Sikh tradition holds that Guru Nanak came here and held the discourse with the Siddhs recorded as the Siddh-Gost, after which Gorakhmata became Nanakmatta.
