SHARKHEJ

Sarkhej is a historic suburban area located in the southwestern part of Ahmedabad. It is best known for the famous Sarkhej Roza, a stunning 15th-century architectural complex that beautifully blends Islamic, Hindu, and Jain design styles. The area played an important role during the Gujarat Sultanate period and was closely associated with the respected Sufi saint Shaikh Ahmed Khattu Ganj Baksh. (Sarkhej Roza)

Today, Sarkhej has developed into a busy residential and commercial locality connected through the well-known Sarkhej–Gandhinagar (SG) Highway. The area combines old heritage with modern urban growth, featuring housing societies, markets, industries, and growing infrastructure. Despite rapid development, Sarkhej still attracts visitors and history lovers because of its rich cultural heritage and peaceful historical monuments.
