Gurdwara Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ghat, also known as Gurudwara Kangan Ghat,[1] is a Sikh place of worship on the banks of the Ganges River approximately 650 m (710 yd) from Takht Sri Patna Sahib.[2] In Hindu mythology, this is the place where Guru Gobind Singh threw his gold bangle (kangan) and passed on the knowledge of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji to Pandit Shiv Dutt, a devotee of Sri Ram Chandra.[3]
The ghat is located near Patna Sahib Station in the state of Bihar. It is marked by a gateway with the Gurudwara on top of it.
