The ‘Tajmahal of Bengal’ is a replica of the Agra Taj Mahal. It’s a masterpiece created like Agra Tajmahal. It’s a symbol of love. Beautiful place for outing with kids and family. Last year I went to visit this beautiful place with my family. Really, the day was very enjoyable for us.
If you want at the end of the lockdown you can also go there, hope you like it very much.
How to reach (from Dhaka):
By Private Car
If you start your journey from Gulistan Bus stop of Dhaka, then you can follow Dhaka-Chittagong highway. After reaching Madanpur, turn Left to Gazipur Road, then Perabo, where Banglar Tajmahal is located.
By Bus
Frequent bus services to Sonargaon operate from Gulistan, Saidabad bus stands in Dhaka. Tickets may be bought on roadside counters. The price of the ticket from the Gulistan bus stand is around BDT 40.00 (0.5$), and the ride may take about 40 minutes, depending on the unpredictable traffic. You have to get down from the bus at Kanchpur Bus Stop. From the Kanchpur Bus Stop, you have to take an autorickshaw, and have to tell the driver to drop you at ‘Banglar Tajmahal’. This will require BDT 150.00 (2$) for the lift.
Tips:
Interestingly some people visit this place to compare the original Tajmahal with the artificial one. But, If your intention is to compare then it would seem very odd and irrational to you. I would like to suggest you enjoy & observe the Architectural property of this building rather comparing.
During the night it is more beautiful to see with extraordinary lighting which really enhances the eye. This place is very crowded on every holiday.
The cost of entry is 150 taka per person. Although, with this same ticket you can visit another beautiful place of the same owner. That is the Rajmani Pyramid. It is located 300 yards from the Taj Mahal.
