About Dargah of Ghazi Saiyyad Salar Masud
The tomb of Salar Masud, a warrior of the early 11th century remembered as Ghazi Miyan, who by tradition fell in battle here in 1034. The shrine was built up under Firoz Shah Tughlaq in the 14th century and has drawn pilgrims of every community ever since. The Jeth Mela in May and June is one of the biggest fairs in eastern UP; the rest of the year it is calm.
