A Mosque situated 30 km away from the Ahmedabad city in a small village Sojali. Inside the Mosque the Shrine of a well known Islamic Scholar and Pir - Mubarak Said, R.A.

Day 1

A Mosque is still in use for prayers nowadays so women are not allowed to go inside room where main Dargah-e-sarif is there. This mosque was built by King Mohmad Begada. This is 15th century old mosque.

The architecture of Mosque is nice and carving in stone is remarkable. It is very nice and peaceful place surrounded by farm. Only crowded during IDD- as 10 days fair is organized every year here.

The Vatrak river is situated beside the Mosque. So during monsoon season it is good to visit here as water is there in river. In other season not much water in the river. The place is situated in little remote area and the road lead to Mosque is not much good. Also the washrooms facilities are not up to the mark. Foods and water you need to bring with you.

A nice and peaceful place to visit far away from noise of the city.
