"Sarkhej Roza is a mosque and tomb complex located in the village of Makarba, 7 km 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.

When i arrived there it was time for their Azaan so everyone was gathered up in one area together while the Azaan went on. I was left all alone to explore the massive Sarkhej Roza and experience it in all its glory.
The view of the sunset from the balcony overlooking the pond was something to witness in person!"

"On my solo ride to guarat i visited this fort called Lakhpat fort. Lakhpat is a sparsely populated town in the Indian state of Gujarat located at the mouth of Kori Creek. The town is enclosed by 7 kms long18th-century fort walls and has a population of approximately 800 people.
Standing on top of the fort walls one can look out in the distance and see emptiness for miles and miles ahead. The feeling that one gets being all alone on top of the fort wall with nobody or nothing around for miles to come cannot be expressed, it can only be felt. This was a totally new and wonderful experience for me as i had never imagined that there could be such beautiful places in india that aren't crowded by tourists or locals."
