Poa Mecca
Situated at a place called Hajo, it is one of the most important pilgrimage destination for Muslims in India and the most visited worshiping place for Muslims in Assam. This Mosque was build by Pir Giasuddin Aulia and is said to give one fourth purity of what is achieved when one pays a visit to Holy Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Hajo is important not only Muslims but to Hindus and Buddhists as well as there are many temples and monasteries situated close to Poa Mecca.
Not many come to Assam on a pilgrimage trip as there are not many sacred places that are famous outside Assam. But the few who came took home a lot more than just blessings, they found peace of mind. The purity and sanctity of Assam religious places transports you to a completely different world, a world lot more divine.
