The Surla Taar Mosque is located in Surla Village, Goa. It is believed to be built by Adil Shah. It was one of the few surviving mosques constructed in the Adil Shah Era and surrounded by an exciting history. The architecture of the Mosque gives away a modern look. There is a water tank built in the front yard, which speaks volumes about its old age. The tank has beautiful arched structures around its boundary and has four steps on all sides. There is a single untarred road that leads to the Mosque from the river bank. Before that, there was no direct path. There were only dense cashew and mango forests surrounding its premises and required devotees to hike all the way to gain access to the prayer chamber. Alternatively, some preferred crossing the river on a raft.

The mosque at Surla Tar is situated along the bank of the River Mandovi. It was built in the 16th century by Ibrahim Adil Shah (1534-1557). There are mihrab arches built with exposed laterite stone that surround a water tank near the mosque. Laterite columns capped with basalt can be seen around the mosque. The mosque’s architectural style is said to be similar to that of the Safa Masjid in Ponda. The more recent painting of the mosque has reduced the historical authenticity of the structure. The Pir Saheb (saint), whose dargah (shrine or tomb) is behind the Surla Tal mosque, is associated with the local deity Sri Sidhdeshwar, making the dargah a place of reverence Hindus and Muslims alike. Godd Bangal is the local name given to the Pir Saheb of the Surla Tal mosque. During the Shigmo festival, a procession to the dargah at Surla Tal takes place. The Muzzawar family maintains the shrine as well as overseeing essential festivals and celebrations related to the Pir.
