Gurdwara Guru Nanak Charan Asthan, Berwa is an historic shrine situated 35 Kms from Srinagar in Berwa (Distt. Budgam). A small Gurdwara existed before 1947, but in 1948 that gurdwara building was washed away by floods. In 1975 a new Gurdwara building was erected, which is managed by Parbandhak Committee, Budgam.
After the visit of Guru Nanak Sahib, Guru Har Gobind Sahib visited the valley, after his release from Gwalior Fort in 1619 Guru Ji returned to visit the valley along with the Mughal Emperor Jahangir on horse back in 1620 while enroute to Sial Kot, Gulatian, Wazirabad, Mirpur and Bhimber. After that they entered Kashmir through Shupian.
