[post_content] => Gouripur Lodge (গৌরীপুর লজ) is a signature of golden Zamindari period and an old edifice in Mymensingh town. This archaic building is located near the main town. One can go there using rickshaw easily. It is very near to the Boro Bazar. Though, the purpose and time of establishment is not known to all; however, it can be discovered if further research is conducted there.
It was made using iron, tin and wood. Structure of the building is similar to the Zamindar Mansion of that period. History tells that it was built by Brozendra Kishor Ray Chowdhury (ব্রজেন্দ্র কিশোর রায় চৌধুরী).
Now it is being used as Sonali Bank Corporate office of Mymensingh city. Government officers and few of their subordinates are currently living at that mansion. It has around 20 rooms inside. Anyone can visit there at anytime. You may not have the permission to enter inside, but easily can get access to the mansion premises.

Dharampasha Land lord’s home/Zamindar Bari is just in the bank of the Tanguar Haor. It is an ideal place to visit once someone comes to see the beauty of Tanguar hoar. It’s a very ancient home. Currently it is very decrepit & worn out.

Arpara Munshi Bari (আড়পাড়া মুন্সীবাড়ী) is located near at Arpara (আড়পাড়া) of Gopalganj district. This is situated beside a man-made straight canal named 'Beel Route Canal'. This is mainly a two stored building and not that much older. But due to lack of care (and also the owner shifted to new place) it is a haunted house now a days.
The windows of this house are missing, doors are gone; trees have grown over this building and started covering it. You can hear lot of chirping sounds of birds; but it is actually a hideout for the bats. Thousands of bats you can see hanging upside down from the roof, and lot of them are flying randomly around and making the noise. It looked slight scary, but an amazing thing to watch.
Probably it’s around 50-60 years of old building and built by a rich family having family/surname Minshi (মুন্সী). They are still powerful, and prominent there by status and wealth. There are few other buildings available near this one and people are living there. Possibly they have shifted from here.

আড়পাড়া মুন্সীবাড়ি গোপালগঞ্জ জেলার আড়পাড়ায় ‘বিল রুট ক্যানেল’ নামক খালের পাশে অবস্থিত। আড়পাড়া মুন্সীবাড়ি মূলত একটি দোতলা বাড়ি যেটি যত্নের অভাবে (বাড়িটির মালিকও অন্যত্র বাস করছে) বর্তমানে অনেকই জরাজীর্ণ অবস্থায় রয়েছে।
বাড়িটির দরজা জানালা খোয়া যাওয়ার পাশাপাশি এটির গায়ে গাছ গজিয়ে বর্তমানে বাড়িটিকে আবৃত করে ফেলছে। বাড়িটির অভ্যন্তরে কিচিরমিচির আওয়াজ শুনে পাখির উপস্থিতির কথা মনে হলেও প্রকৃতপক্ষে এটি বাদুড়দের সৃষ্ট আওয়াজ। হাজার হাজার বাদুড়ের বাড়িটির ছাদ থেকে ঝুলে থাকা এবং দ্রুতগতিতে ওড়ার সময় এসব বাদুড়ের সৃষ্ট আওয়াজ কিছুটা ভীতিকর হলেও আজকালকার দিনে এমন দৃশ্য চোখে পড়াও দুর্লভ বৈকি।
এই বাড়িটি প্রায় ৫০ বছর থেকে ৬০ বছর পুরাতন যেটি মুন্সী পরিবার নির্মাণ করেছিল। এই পরিবারটি স্থানীয়ভাবে এখনও মর্যাদাসম্পন্ন, বিত্তবান এবং প্রভাবশালি। এই ভবনে মুন্সী পরিবার আর বসবাস না করলেও আশেপাশের কিছু পুরাতন বাসাবাড়িতে এখনও মানুষজন বসবাস করে।
