Saidpur (Urdu: سیدپور) is a village and union council (UC-1)[2] located in a ravine in Pakistan in the Margalla Hills, near the Daman-e-Koh overlook, in the Islamabad Capital Territory.

Tuzk-e-Jahangiri, Jahangir's autobiography, mentions his stay at a village "beyond Rawalpindi", believed to be Saidpur, en route to Kabul.

The village was a garden resort at that time,[12] and a natural spring flowed across it, providing water for drinking and irrigation.

[15] In the 20th century, a gurdwara was constructed adjacent to the temple by the Sikhs, which served as a school for spreading the teachings of Guru Nanak.

[12] A church and a mosque were also located nearby, as was the shrine of Zinda Pir (Living Saint),[16] symbolizing interfaith harmony.

It was remodelled as an Arts and Crafts Village, with the objective of preserving its 500-year old multi-cultural heritage and developing it as a tourist spot.

For centuries, Hindus have travelled from far and wide to worship at the temple, staying in an adjoining dharamshala (rest house for pilgrims).
