Skardu is a well known town of Azad Kashmir. It is at a distance of about 450 km from Lahore. Every year thousands of people come to visit this place in summer.

There is a big building on top of a small hill, about 1 km from the main cross-road of Skardu. It is this building which is known as Gurdwara Sri Chota Nanakiana Sahib.

Prakashasthan, langar hall, and rest rooms for Sikhs are on the hill. There are several shops on the main road below this building. These shops are owned by the Gurdwara.

Skardu Fort is about two kilometers from the Gurdwara. Sat Guru stayed at this place while he was on his way back from China. It is also called as 'Asthan Nanak Pir' by the local people.

The building is not in a good condition, Prakash asthan has started collapsing and rest of the building wears a deserted look. Only the shops remain as they are looked after by the occupants.
