The city is the capital of Narowal District and tehsil.[1] The city is situated at the bank of Ravi River about 4-5 km from the Indian border. There are several theories as to the origin of the name. The most famous of them quotes that it was named after a Sikh landlord Naro Singh who was the owner of this land before the partition of sub-continent in 1947.This city is situated about 50 km away from jamu and kashmir.This city is Famous for the production of rice. During British Rule Narowal was a town of the Raya Tehsil of Sialkot District[2], after independence from Britain in 1947 Narowal became tehsil headquarters - in 1991 the district of Sialkot was bifurcated, Narowal then became the capital of the newly formed Narowal District.[3] This is the historical place where Jagat Guru Nanak Ji departed from this world on 23rd Assu, Samvat 1596 (22nd Sept. 1529 AD). It is also called Dera Nanak Baba. Dera Sahib railway station, on Lahore-Narowal section, serves this place. The Shrine is located by the River Ravi within a distance of four kilometers from the railway station. The present building was built at a cost of Rs.1,35,600, donated by Sardar Popindar Singh, the Maharaja of Patiala. It was repaired by the Govt of Pakistan in 1995 incurring expenditure in lacs of rupees. It has a spacious and beautiful building. Its location beside a forest and river Ravi makes its care difficult
