The Shrine of Mauj Darya is located at the rear side of tall buildings and is approached through a narrow street, west of Edward Road. Some books had referred to this area as Kuri Bagh, formerly the residence of French General Ventura, of Ranjit Singh. The shrine stands on high a mound and its plinth is visible on the north in the Custom Collection House. A small graveyard surrounds the shrine. A mosque stands on its south-east. The exact date of the construction of the shrine is not known but is generally held that it was built during Akbar’s reign.
