Oldest Ground of Gujarat. Cricket played for the first time in India in 1864

Visited Aug 2019. See pics attached. 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.

Visit this place if u r historical enthusiast. Learn about the history of Mughals in Surat. Notivkets required. Entry for women is restricted, few people there can tell u about its history and importance.

It is such an important archeological and historical landmark in the state of Gujarat...but there is no maintenance it seems. There is govt apathy it seems due to it being a minority structure....but we shld realise the historical importance of the structure...the respect must be shown to the memory of the Khan who defended the country from the Portuguese...

Great place and a very peaceful place, and the architecture is awesome

Ladies are not allowed at this place.

Place tell us about the grand history...

Fact: Khudawand Khan was the governor of Surat and Tomb is like Dargah now due to him being revered as Saint

very soulful place, but it needs proper maintenance from heritage department

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. ❤️

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.

Very unique must go n see Amazing 🤩

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.

It's a Muslim religious place..! Peaceful and calm place.

A place of peace for the heart and soul
