Mahmud, Dhaka, 10 September: A place of historical interest means
a place which bears the testimony of certain time of history. It should have
some important past event worth notable in history. To visit a place of historical
interest is not only interesting and exiting but also educative.
Last week the
first year students of Dhaka City College arranged a study tour to a place of
historical interest. They went to Bagerhat to see the famous Shat Gombuj Mosque
and the Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali. The mosque was made in 15th century by Khan
Jahan Ali. The students were astonished to see the architectural structures of
the mosque. It stands on sixty pillars and has seventy seven exquisitely curved
domes.
The area of
mosque is very large and charming. The mosque has been declared as a world
heritage site. The interior of the mosque is as beautiful as the exterior. The mosque
stands on a raised ground. There is a long tank near the mosque named
‘Ghoradighi’. The students also felt ecstasy to see the unique design of the Mazar
of Khan Jahan Ali. The tomb is made of cutting stone.
After reaching
there, students collected much information about the mosque with the help of
the history lecturer. People of the locality also helped them to know about the
mosque better. One of the local people said that the mosque was also used by
Khan Jahan Ali as his court. Students of Dhaka City College were much
benefitted from the study tour.
