Eminabad is a town located 10 to 15 kilometers southeast of Gujranwala city. The history of this town is quite ancient, it is believed that the town was inhabited during the first century BCE by Raja Salavan of Sialkot.
In Eminabad, before the partition of Hindustan, a large community of Hindus and Sikhs used to live alongside Muslims. One can still find remains of many beautiful architectures of that era present in the forms of Havelis, Gardens, Gateways, Temples, and Gurdwaras.
Near the old Gateway of Eminabad an old structure is standing, local people called it 'Dakh Chowki', however, was a corner bastion of a pre-partition walled Garden. it has a staircase and rooms constructed on one side.
