The Aga Khan's Maqbara or Aga Khan's Dargah is the mausoleum of Aga Khan I, located in Mazgaon, Mumbai, India.[1][2]

The construction of the mausoleum began soon after Aga Khan I's funeral in 1881, and it was finally completed in 1884.[3] The mausoleum is well kept and is looked after by the jamaatkhana of the Khoja Muslims.[4] It seems to have been inspired by the Taj Mahal.
