Three separate shrines collectively called Nanaksar on the name of Guru Nanak are close to one another. The name of the <em>sarovar</em> (sacred pool) is also Bibeksar Gurdwara Patshahi Pahili which is on the bank of Nanaksar <em>sarovar</em>.

Guru Ji had discourses with the Siddh-yogis living on a nearby mound. They used to consume liquor and drugs to keep their concentration.
