Sarkhej Roza

Ahmedabad district, India · built 1445

The Sarkhej Roza is a Sufi mosque and tomb complex located in the village of Makarba, 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) south-west of Ahmedabad in Gujarat state, India. Although there are many rozas across Gujarat, the Sarkhej Roza is the most revered. Sarkhej was once a prominent centre of Sufi culture in the country, where influential Sufi saint Shaikh Ahmed Ganj Baksh lived. It was on the saint's suggestion that Sultan Ahmed Shah set up his capital on the banks of the Sabarmati, a few miles away from Sarkhej. The complex is a Monument of National Importance.
