About Historic Mosque City of Bagerhat
Hidden in the humid mangrove fringes of southern Bangladesh, the medieval city of Bagerhat was founded by a Muslim saint-general in the 15th century and holds a wealth of mosque architecture reclaimed from the jungle. Its masterpiece is the Sixty Dome Mosque, a vast brick prayer hall bristling with domes and slender columns — a serene, little-visited wonder.
