-
“স্বাধীনতা তুমি”
স্বাধীনতা তুমি
রবিঠাকুরের অজর কবিতা, অবিনাশী গান।
স্বাধীনতা তুমি
কাজী নজরুল ঝাঁকড়া চুলের বাবরি দোলানো
মহান পুরুষ, সৃষ্টিসুখের উল্লাসে কাঁপা-
স্বাধীনতা তুমি
শহীদ মিনারে অমর একুশে ফেব্রুয়ারির উজ্জ্বল সভা
স্বাধীনতা তুমি
পতাকা-শোভিত শ্লোগান-মুখর ঝাঁঝালো মিছিল…

Golakata Mosque and Dighi were built in 16th century AD. the mosque's gigantic structure makes it very special. It stands 150 feet tall. The steps were made by bricks. Recently it looks a bit distinct. It is mixed with some colors but white & reds are frequently used. There is a huge prayer space where many people say their prayer.
There is a very big Dighi known as Galakata Dighi. This place becomes very calm and relaxed in evening by the whining of birds. Many people come here to chill. This Dighi is filled with natural beauty.

১৬শ শতকে নির্মিত গলাকাটা মসজিদটির বিশেষত্ব হল এটির বিশালাকৃতি। প্রায় ১৫০ ফুট উঁচু এই মসজিদটি অত্যন্ত যত্নের সাথে নির্মাণ করা হয় এমন একটি সময়ে যখন প্রযুক্তিগত দিক দিয়ে এই অঞ্চলের মানুষ পিছিয়ে ছিল। মসজিদের সিঁড়িগুলো ইটের তৈরি ছিল। তবে, বর্তমানে মসজিদটিকে সামান্য আলাদা দেখায়। মসজিদটিতে বিভিন্ন রঙ ব্যবহার করা হলেও লাল এবং সাদা রঙের প্রাধান্য চোখে পড়ে। গলাকাটা মসজিদের নামাজ আদায় করার স্থানটি বেশ বিশালাকারের।
এখানে গলাকাটা দীঘি নামে একটি বিশাল দীঘি রয়েছে। বিকালবেলা পাখিদের কিচিরমিচিরে দীঘির পাড়ে এক প্রশান্তিকর পরিবেশের সৃষ্টি হয়। প্রাকৃতিক সৌন্দর্যে ভরপুর এই দীঘিতে অনেকেই আসেন প্রশান্তি অর্জনের জন্য। দীঘিতে ভ্রমনের জন্য এবং এটির সৌন্দর্য উপভোগের জন্য এখানে বিভিন্ন আকারের নৌকা রয়েছে। এখানে আসলে আপনি বিশাল প্রকৃতিকে দেখে মুগ্ধ না হয়ে পারবেন না। প্রকৃতিকে দেখার পাশাপাশি আপনি দীঘিতে গোসলও করতে পারবেন।

Chandanpura Mosque is an attractive multiple domed mosque. This is situated is just beside the Kaptai road, the old part of the Chittagong. If you are traveling the place from Chittagong, then you can take a CNG auto rickshaw, and just ask the auto to take you at "Chandanpura Mosque". The mosque is renovated at 1952. The colorful design of the mosque is really outclass. Recently due to pollution, the mosque is losing its beauty day by day.
Just opposite of the mosque, there is fire station. This building was built during the British reign. This red building of the fire station is very eye catching and make people remember the history of infrastructure of then British Architecture.

Jamalpur Shahi Mosque is one of the oldest mosque in Gaibandha district. It was built by Hazrat Maulana Shah Jamal (R). There are no specific inscription behind the proper construction period of this mosque. There is a Folklore that a war had been occurred between Hazrat Shah Jamal and contemporary Hindu Raja Khirodhar (ক্ষীরোধার) where Raja Khirodhar was defeated by Shah Jamal (R). For preserving this victory, Hazrat Shah Zamal (R) built this mosque just in one night.
The people who are living here, have strongly believe about this Myth. There is also a pond in front of the mosque which was also built by Shah Zamal in one night.
