01 — The story

Azam and Muazzam Khan's Tomb, also called their Roza, is a medieval tomb in Vasna, Ahmedabad. It covers the graves of two Persian brothers who served the Gujarat Sultanate as archers and architects, and who are credited with designing the Sarkhej Roza.

The tomb was put up in 1457 and is built of solid brick, much like Dariya Khan's Tomb in the same city. A garden and a mosque once stood beside it, but neither survives.
