Rander Eid Gah located in Jahangirbad, Rander,surat.

Mughal emperor Jehangir and his companions, on their way to Ahmedabad, stopped at this historic place near Jehangirpur which is now called Rander Eid-Gah. Jehangir accepted the invitation (dawat) from the mayor of Rander, Malik Tujjar. Malik Tujjar was one of the richest businessman of his time. To honour and welcome the emperor Jehangir, red carpet was laid from the Mayors palace to Jehangirpur. The dinner was served in golden plates. After the dinner was over, the plates were given to the charity. Jehangir offered Friday prayer at the Jumma Masjid Rander and Eid Salah at Eid-Gah. Today over 5 Lakh people around Rander offer their Eid Salah in the Eid-Gah.
