Dhaka To Khulna Via Jamuna and Hardinge Bridge



It was 28th August,2011, I started from Dhaka train station for Jessore. I knew that it was long route and in my imagination, I was expecting a breath refreshing journey through the middle of the green nature.

But, with the travel of time, I was being surprised by the industrialization and colonization of people in the both side of the train track. Green fields and Rivers are totally distorted to accommodate the overwhelming population of the country. The gathering came to an end after I crossed the Jamuna Bridge. Then gradually the green world was spreading its wing and I was starting to believe, yeah, a little Bangladesh is yet alive.

I traveled through Dhaka, Gazipur, Tangail, Sirajgang, Pabna, Kushtia, Chuadanga, Jhinaidah and Last of all Jessore in this journey. Here sharing some portraits of green Bangladesh taken from the different parts of train route between Dhaka and Jessore.

Korotia Land-lord House (Jamindar Bari), Tangail (করোটিয়া জমিদার বাড়ি)



Karatia is very near to the Dhaka-Tangail highway, 8 km away from the Tangail town. Wazed Ali Khan panni (ওয়াজেদ আলী খান পান্নি), a zamindar of Tangail established this place. He also established Sadat College (সাদাত কলেজ) in 1925. The founder named it after the name of his grandfather Sadat Ali Khan Panni (সাদাত আলী খান পান্নি). The Land lord house was established in 1906. It is an awesome historical structure. But nobody took any initiative to preserve it as a tourist place. Rokea Hall, which is used as a School now, is very much old to be used and risky too. I think tourists, who get interest in history will find this place very charming.
