About us

The main purpose of this website is to provide information about Sikh communities
unite and enrich Sikhs around the world.
Sikhs have emigrated to various countries since the 1800's and
have integrated successfully into different mainstream societies while retaining
their own unique culture. Successful Sikhs communities are now located in major
potential regions and cities around the world. A Gurdwara is always within reach.

There is great demand for information about the international Sikh communities,
Gurdwaras, Sikhism, cultural and social activities.

We launched our first site in 1998 when the internet was gaining popularity
and became a great medium for information and entertainment.
A picture tells a thousand stories. Digital cameras have revolutionized photography
and this provided the opportunity for Sikhs to have an idea about colorful
Sikh communities worldwide. Sikhs have sent us photographs and information.
We have set up many websites for their local Gurdwaras.

Punjab is where Punjabis are! We invite you to contribute whatever
information of photographs of Gurdwaras that you have. Thank you.

SIKHS WORLWIDE The British Empire changed the lives of many Sikhs now located around the world.
The British Empire caused many Punjabis to serve in British colonies and dominions around the world during the First and Second World Wars. They served as soldiers in the British Army, colonial police forces or other disciplined services. Sikhs were preferred for these duties largely due to their tall build, strength and loyalty. Many Sikhs continued to settle in those former colonies after the war and integrated successfully into different communities.
Sikhs are known to be warm and friendly to people of all creeds & races.
Distinctive Punjabis wear their turban with pride, and look upon it as a mark of their glorious tradition and are known for its heritage of courage and chivalry stretching back over three centuries. With the large population of Sikhs located in countries around the world, they are truly world citizens. Sikhs normally adopt simple yet colorful lifestyles. Punjabis steer clear of the money grabbing and materially obsessed lifestyles which many people are suffocating themselves with these days, therefore, most Sikhs can enjoy life like others did in the good old days.
Most of them respectable, dignified and extended family ties.
Sikhs are famous for being traditional yet progressive. Sikh professionals can be found in different countries working as doctors, lawyers, engineers, sportsmen, farmers, administrators, bankers, businessmen etc. Traditionally Sikhs are service orientated, kind, hardworking, least corruptible, reliable, progressive and trustworthy.

It is your duty as a good Sikh to let people know about your Gurdwara.
If your Gurdwara is not listed or not on the internet,
please send us information and we will list it or
set up a website for your Gurdwara.
