Tando Bago is located on the left bank of the Shadiwah canal and is connected by road with Hyderabad (via Tando Muhammad Khan), , Khairpur, Pangrio, Badin, and . The area around Tando Bago is crisscrossed by many small seasonal drainage channels, which mostly derive from the Shahdadpur branch of the Indus, although some come from branches further west. Tando Bago is home to a prominent Sheedi community, which retains a distinct identity but is also relatively impoverished, mostly living in the ghetto area of Kandri Paro and working as lowly labourers. Kandri Paro's houses are generally small and in disrepair and lack the courtyards found in other parts of town. One notable member of Tando Bago's Sheedi community was Mussafir (a pen name; his given name was Muhammad Siddiq), who Sheedis throughout Sindh venerate as a hero for working to advance the position of Sheedis in society. Mussafir's father Bilal was born in Zanzibar around 1793 and was sold into slavery; eventually he was sold to a stonemason who had just been contracted to build a fort in Tando Bago for the ruling Talpurs. Mussafir himself was born in 1879, when his father was 86 years old. He was childhood friends with Mir Ghulam Muhammad, the heir of the main Talpur ruling family, and Mussafir later got him to help with founding a high school for Sheedis in the old Talpur fort. This school was the first in Pakistan to offer education to Sheedi girls. Mussafir died in Tando Bago and his blue-and-white tomb is an important site for Sheedis in Sindh. (en)
