Mahemdavad's Spectacular places

Roza Rozi is a Maqbara ( Drgah Sarif
of Mubarak Said,R.A.) located near
Ghodali village with distance of 3 km
from Mahemdavad. Roza Rozi is a holy
place for Muslims so there is a fair on
Uras (Festival of Muslims). Every year
the uras celebrating after the 10 day of
Eid-Ul-fitra with lots of Joy.
The myth about Roza Rozi is that we
cannot count the pillars of the
building. Every time we count it gives
different figure. We confuse while
counting because of its architectural
design.
Roza- Rozi is a popular picnic spot for the local residents and during the auspicious events of Eid, a fun-fare is set up in there. 
  • Bhammariyo Kuvo

Mahemdabad has some historical places such as the Bhammariyo Kuvo (Kuvo meaning well)
It is believed that there are some underground secret routes connecting from Bhammariyo Kuvo to Ahemdabad, Pavagadh and Junagadh. The site is currently being restored and developed as a place of cultural heritages


This is an ancient well with seven
floors (stories) below the ground. Each
floor has a different architecture.
Currently floors four to seven of the
well are filled so visitors are only able
to view the top three floors.
A popular myth about the well is that
Mahmud Begada built a swing in this
well with water level up to his neck to
reduce the heat he continuously felt
because of side effects of a daily dose
of toxin which his mother gave him in
small amounts to immunize him from
any attempts to poison him by
enemies..
