Dargah of Kamaruddin Shah

Rajasthan


To the south of Kana Pahar Hill is the Dargah of Kamaruddin Shah, a complex consisting of a madrasa (Islamic college), a mosque and a mehfilkhana (concert hall in which religious songs are sung). Fragments of paintings depicting floral motifs remain around the courtyard (although many have been covered with whitewash).
