BAGHA MOSQUE


 Bagha Mosque situated at Rajshahi, Bangladesh. Built in 1523 A.D. by Sultan Nusrat Shah. Son of Hussain Shah. It is a richly decorated monument originally roofed over with 10 domes which collapsed long ago but recently rebuilt carefully to their original form. The superb terracotta decoration on the central mihrab represents floral frame work and jali rosettes. The whole outer surface of the mosque is beautifully embellished with fine terracotta art motifs. One can start his journey for the monument from Rajshahi Railway Station by any kind of motorized vehicle.
