Ekti Moshjid Shonglogno Choto Katra



Atkinson chobiti shomporke likhechen " caravanserai is taken from within the area of the square which its walls enclose ... a small Mosque ... on the left ... Its minarets rise somewhat like the shafts of elegant octangular columns, and are terminated by capitals of oriental foliage and fruit ... and while the dome of this mosque is beautifully fluted, its uniformities of colour and form are varigated in a picturesque manner by the blue and orange mosses, and other luxurious vegetation of this part of Asia".


Dhakar Prante Ekti Moshjid



"Though highly deserving of the attentions of the painter, the architect, and the man of taste, nothing is particularly known on the subject of its history. It is situated on the road leading from Dacca to Tungy, and is wildly overgrown with various foliage, and roots rambling across it in every romantic direction, and clinging to its domes and arches. The view is taken from the eastward." - James Atkinson

Atkinson likhechen "The cotton of which all the muslins are manufactured is produced in abundance all over the province, and of a finer quality than in any other part of the world. Those grounds which are annually overflowed by the Ganges, are said to produce the best kind of cotton." Muslin charau British ra ashar age thekei Dhaka reshmi kaporer jonne o bikkhato chilo.
