Gurdawara Bair Sahib also called Baba Beri or Baba Bair is situated in Sialkot, Pakistan. It was the place where Baba Guru Nanak stayed and met Hamza Ghaus, a famous saint of Sialkot. [1] The berry tree under which Guru Nanak stayed is still present. The gurdwara was built by Natha Singh [2] and it includes a garden, a pool and residential rooms. The gurdwara was damaged in the wake of the Babari Masjid dispute. There used to be a very high temple which was razed to the ground when it was demolished by an unruly mob.

The gurdwara was renovated during the 2010s and opened for pilgrims. [2]
