I am always curious by nature to know the places of historical interest. Whenever I get an opportunity, I visit a place . During the last winter vacation, I got such an opportunity to visit Shat Gambuj Mosque at Bagherhat , a great historical place with my parents. The Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali at Bagherhat is a fine one storied building. It has a beautiful dome. It is a big and beautiful building. The mosque is beautifully decorated both inside and outside . The mosque was used as a prayer hall as well as the court of Khan Jahan Ali.The mosque has great attraction for the tourists and visitors. There is a big Dighi. It is said that a horse was made to run before digging the Dighi. The horse run straight covering a certain distance from the Dighi. That distance was accepted as the length of the Dighi. That is why, the Dighi is called Ghora Dighi.I visited the whole length of the Ighi and came to know many things about the social works of Khan Jahan Ali. I spent seven hours there and saw many historical things and enjoyed myself. Now, It is one of the greatest tourists attractions and the best architectural beauties of Bangladesh. I left Bagherhat but memory still is vivid in my memory.
