★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Heritage site...the only Indo-Iranian style architecture of Surat. "Rojo" is where Masjid (mosque) n Dargah exist together at one site.
Built by then Surat governor Rajab Rumikhan during the reign of Sultan Ahmed Shah III. Khwajasafar Salmani alias Khudawindkhana was father of Rajab Rumikhan.
It still has its historical grandeur in its architecture.
A must visit for every Surti and heritage site admirer.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Historical place and has a great good looking structure overall.
But we, the surtis don't look back in history too much, we do not even try to peep in past if it has no impact on us personally.?
So many places we have with good historical memories but we don't care too much.
We respect all the cultures Incl Hindu, Muslim, Jain, Parsi, Sikh, etc. But we too have our own culture called "Happy people by not caring too much"
And this is what makes us one of the carelessly happiest people in the whole country and world itself..!
Proud to be Surti. ❤️

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is a tomb of a general in the army of the King of Surat built in 1540. The stone carvings of this exquisite structure and intricate jali work all around the walls of the building are worth seeing. The main tomb is on the left side towards the centre of the building.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ On the Chakla Bazaar road leading onto Ved Road, one comes across this magnificient mausoleum where Khudawand Khan, Governor of Surat in 1546,lies buried. This place is among some of the most popular places in Surat having historical importance. As a consequence of continuous piratical raids by the Portuguese in the city of Surat, the city was experiencing a dark time which was tackled by the then Governor of Surat, Khudawand Khan. The tomb is beautiful and is made using Islamic caricature and architecture. There is a plaque with information about the life of Khudawand Khan near the tomb.
But it needs care and maintenance as its condition in ruining. Timings are from sunrise to sunset.

Nice masjid/maqbara. I could not enter the maqbara. Difficult to photograph the site since there's not much space around it. Nice lattice work. Go around the site to have a better look.
