Hey friend.
I think we always believe GOD IS ONE.
People worship him in different places by different names.
It is just a matter of belief n faith .I had seen so many people visiting Dargah n Majar be it Hindu. sikh or any other religion.I myself is a pure Sikh ' even i had visited so many Dargahs n Mandirs...No offence it is personal faith...

dargah and mazar are same. mosque - masjid, is the mainstream islamic place of prayer. mazaar is more of a sufi tradition, though now many people, including muslims hindus sikhs, etc, visit mazaars of famous religious figures.

ahh, i know mosques and masjids as well as dargah, but i never heard of mazar.. so thats more of a sufi tradition... traditionally sikhs go there? i know everyone goes everywhere now adays but wasn't sure of what it is traditionally

thanks for answering!

A mosque is a muslim place of worship - ie christians have the church, hindus have temples and sikhs have gurudwaras. A dargah/mazar is a tomb of a sufi saint. the famous ones in India are the ones in Ajmer (of saint Hazrat Khwajs Moinuddin Chisti ) and in Delhi (of saint Hazrat Nizammudin Auliya). Many people from all over the world visit these dargahs. Infact most film stars visit these places before their movies are released.
