About

The Boaliwala Temple or Baoli Sahib is an architectural fusion of both the Hindu and Sikhs' vernacular styles situated in Narowal district within Punjab province near its administrative center, Sargodha. Originally a significant religious site for local Hindus before partition-induced abandonment, it has recently initiated restoration efforts by Evacuee Trust Property Board (ETPB). The temple's revitalization caters to the Hindu community in this district who have lacked functional worship spaces since 1960. Visitors can expect an ongoing project with a focus on preserving and restoring its unique architecture during October, November, February or March months when weather conditions are favorable for construction work progression.
