The holy Baba Sidhgoriya Shrine, rich in spirituality and history, is tucked away in Jammu's Samba district. Both history buffs and devotees place great importance on this hallowed location. The shrine is thought to have been constructed in memory of Baba Sidhgoriya, a saintly figure renowned for both his healing abilities and spiritual teachings. The shrine has a pond with a temple in the middle of the pond surrounded by other small temples. People throng this place on Sunday and Tuesday and take a wholly dip into the water also. Baba ji is said to bestow blessings on all those who maintain faith and confidence in this sacred location. Each year, a public mela is held at Sidh Swankha and Dangal, encompassing seven days and drawing participants from across the nation, including Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Jammu & Kashmir. Those who live close to the shrine and understand the significance of the mela for centuries plan ahead of time to accommodate visitors who come specifically to participate in the mela.
