A Study Tour
Arranged by Dhaka City College
Mabrur Atiqi, Dhaka, 04 November: 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.
