Virasat-e-Khalsa is a Sikkhisim museum in Anandpur Sahib in Punjab.

It is located in the holy town of Anandpur Sahib, near Chandigarh, India.

It is built to celebrate 500 years of Sikh history and the 300th anniversary of the birth of Khalsa, based on the teachings of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Not only will it attract tourists and pilgrims, but it’s also a great way to show off some hand crafts to the locals and to nurture a sense of heritage.

The real star of the show is the building.

It’s designed in a fortress-style with a majestic bridge connecting the two structures on either side of a ravine. The smaller building complex on the west comprises of a grand entrance plaza, a double-storey library for research and reference purposes, several exhibition galleries and a huge auditorium with a capacity of 400.

The complex on the east comprises of a memorial building and galleries that create an appearance of a fortress in the building.

So pack your bags and get ready for a spiritual journey that’ll make you want to take a selfie with every inch of the building and post it on Instagram with #blessed #museumgoals #Sikhhistoryrocks”
