The lesser known Khokhari Tomb (Gumbad) is located very closed to the beautiful Murud Beach, Maharashtra. It is believed that Tomb was built in 12th century by the descendants of Siddis Mughal ruler. The Mughal architecture of this old massive stone tomb is superb but seems neglected by the ASI. There is no proper informative board for the visitors. The place should properly be restored by ASI/ local authorities to maintain such a amazing historical monuments. The tomb is placed on a high plateform near the seashore looks awesome. The place is calm and quiet and not crowded even on holiday. Best part is that you can have a wonderful view of sea beach from here. Good location for picture perfect and photo shoot. Must visit !!
This is a 500 years old historical place in Murud, Maharashtra, very beautiful place on sea side very big architectural marvel..
A must visit place if you are interested in historical monuments, the main tombs are of Siddi Surul Khan and Yakut Khan who ruled in Janjira during the 17th century. There are many tombs spread across the entire property and are lying in a deserted state. It's a very peaceful place and has hardly any visitors even during weekends. The view from here is amazing as it's located right next to the beach and on a considerable height. We do see the ASI board being placed near the entry but I don't think it is being maintained or preserved in any way. Parking can be done on the street across and Google Maps will guide you for the exact location. Road conditions are not that good after Kashid Beach if coming from Alibaug.
The khokhri tombs this place is near by murud. The government need to do needful for maintenance of this old structure. This structure is need to maintain. The government need to do something for share the proper historical information of this building. People's sometime confused about this place and need at least some people's who guide the tourists. Some times local people's explain information of this place that was good. The atmosphere of this place is good in summer season it's too hot at temperature of30 to 35 digree celsius. Best time to visit is june to October.
We visited this after visiting Janjira Fort,no one was there, so we could not go inside.
This is a real undiscovered gem. Best time to visit is during mid afternoon to evening.. when the sun bathes the place in a beautiful light. Unfortunately, there is no plaque describing the history of the place to visitors. But it's worth visiting just to admire the scale of construction that the people undertook and in such unforgiving terrain. Best thing about it is the relative peace and quiet and also the beautiful views that you get of the sea. Must visit! Wish the ASI took better care of this place and added a plaque describing its history.
Beautiful tomb where the Siddi king and his family are resting. The tombs are placed near the seaside and is a very scenic place with the mughal architecture.
The tombs of kings from past. The construction is humongous and very well crafted. Located on road to Janjira fort. This places is not well maintained. There was no informative board provided by ASI. ASI should restore the place and should provide the information also. Worth visiting.
One of the old temples in murud janjira...3 minutes walking distance from murud beach.. this place is near the police Station... koteswari mata is a gramdevata of murud janjira.. the temple is very attractive...this place is very peaceful..
Went with family (13 members) for 2 nights. Hardly a minute walk to beach from hotel. Restaurants are also nearby. Staff is very helpful and we all loved our staycation in Sawali Niwas.
Excellent accommodation and food. Room was very clean and spacious. Plenty of greenery inside the premises. Owner is very cooperative and friendly. A little far from the beach but otherwise exceptional!
The food quality is amazing and price to quantity ratio is perfect. The location on the map is not accurate hence you need to ask around to get there.. If you are planning to visit Murud Janjira fort, you can stop here for lunch..
Very nice place to visit and stay. The atmosphere in Mamachi wadi is very cool due to so many baanana tress and betel trees. We all enjoyed, also this place is good for photo shoot. Mama, we are coming again.
We stayed there for couple of nights and must say its value fir money. We really enjoyed stay and the morning breakfast! Rooms were clean although it's not at beach front but close to beach. Owner was very helpful. One must keep in mind it's shared p
Excellent Service. Food was good. Awesome Place just out of City for a relaxing mood. Can go with Family or Friends. Even for Kids there's pool, Swing to play and a small garden. Also space outside the room where you can sit and rejoice. Pratik, tha
The beach is Great and not so deep. Calm sea with lots of water activities starting from Rs300 to Rs600 per person. But the beach is full of wet sand and you cannot find any dry sand patch, so no point in bringing sand toys for kids. A dolphin watchi
