Haji Ali Dargah

The Haji Ali Dargah is both a mosque and tomb located in south-western Mumbai on an islet off the coast of Worli. The dargah (tomb) was built in memory of Muslim preacher, Syed Peer Haji Ali Shah Bukhari in 1431, who was inspired to change the course of his life after embarking on the Hajj to Mecca. Haji Ali is only accessible by a 1500-foot (457 metre) long walkway during low tide and Thursdays and Fridays see thousands of pilgrims flocking to Haji Ali to receive blessings from the dead saint.

Address: Off the coast of Worli, near Mahalaxmi railway station
