Dhuri
Spend half a day in Dhuri to visit its main gurdwaras and Satlok Ashram; add a night only if you need a rest before heading to Sangrur.
Dhuri is a small Punjabi town in the Malwa region with several Sikh shrines and the Satlok Ashram. It is reachable by frequent local trains and buses from Sangrur, making a quick half‑day visit feasible. Most travellers stay in nearby Sangrur or Ludhiana and treat Dhuri as a day‑trip stop.
