Overview

Sarkhej Roza is a complex that has palaces, tombs, and a mosque set around a huge tank, which now stays mostly dry. There is a tomb of Shaikh Ahmed Khattu Ganj Bakhsh behind the pavilion, built by Sultan Ahmed Shah, which, by the way, is one of the largest mausoleums in Gujarat. Built in a time when styles were infused (1451), the Sarkhej Roza combines both Indian and non-Indian architectural features.
