    Visit to Haji Ali
    The Haji Ali Dargah is a mosque and located at around 500 yards inside the Arabian Sea, one has walk through a pathway to visit the mosque. The pathway has several small shops / hawkers. When we visited in Mar’20, some construction work was going on inside the mosque. There was limited crowd and we offered Chadar and took blessing from the Pir. While entering the pathway, there are several shops on the main road, selling Chadar, flower etc. However, there rates are exorbitantly high, the chadar we bought from them was available at shops on the pathway at 1/3rd rate.

    Must See Sight in Mumbai.
    I last visited here in 2016. Back here after 7 years. I came here in a taxi this time - last time I took a train from Churchgate to Mahalaxmi & walked down past the racecourse , having first had a look at Dhobi Ghat which is right by Mahalaxmi Station. The big change since is that a new coast road is under construction meaning that a section of the causeway leading from the road to the Dargah is now channelled under a concrete dual carriageway. This occurs shortly after you have passed the colourful stalls. Then the causeway is as it was , albeit with less people hoping for charity aligning it. Make sure you visit when the tide is out otherwise the causeway will be submerged. There is a view to be had right across Worli Bay with exposed rocks to both sides ( still littered , unfortunately ). Tower blocks on the shore rise out of the smog , fronted by the cranes & construction works of the new coast road. It might look alright when finished but now it rather grim. The Dargah itself is the monument of Pir Haji Ali Shah Bukhari , a 15th c Saint from modern day Uzbekistan. Very attractive in it's white marble but , unfortunately , due to pollution & salt damage there always seems to be some part of it under repair. There are toilets available & food & water. You can walk right around via a stepped , uneven & slippery apron. Some intrepid souls pick their way across the rocks to the water's edge , others congregate on the rocks behind the Dargah. Disappointingly grubby , as before but still a very worthwhile visit

I went there in November 2023. I was not my first time. My last time was about 10 years ago. Sadly, this place is run down. Wish they spend some money to beautify this once-beautiful mosque.

On our trip to Mumbai, we planned to visit Haji Ali Dargah as I had a wonderful experience 20 years back. A serene place nestled amidst the waves of the sea, we were excited.
But our excitement soon died out as we reached the place. Hundreds of hawkers and street vendors crowded the approach road, they even try to pull you towards their shops. However we loved the sea causeway that connects the dargah to land. Sea on both side, cool breeze and sunset, it was a perfect backdrop. But you cannot ignore the garbage alongside the sea, it was everywhere. Once we get inside the shrine we were shocked, there was an unbearable stench all over the place that we could not stand. We noticed that there were toilets inside the complex and those were the source of that stench. We noticed a overall sign of mismanagement in the entire place.
It is our heritage and one of a kind, please maintain it.
