Shrine of Baba Farid
The Shrine of Baba Farid was built in the town that was known in medieval times as Ajodhan, the old town's importance was eclipsed by that of the shrine, as evidenced by its renaming to "Pakpattan," meaning "Pure Ferry" - referencing a river crossing made by pilgrims to the shrine. The shrine was central to a process that resulted in the conversion of local Jat tribes to Islam over the course of several centuries.
