Jagadbandhu Sree Angan or Sreedham Sree Angan was established by the "Jagadbandhu Shundar" during the "Roth Jatra" festival of "Ashar 1306" of Bengali calendar. The land for the Angan was donated by "Sreeram Sundar" and "Sreeram Kumarmudi". Everyday lots of "bhokto"(devotee) used to visit the place. For them, the Angan has a facility for providing accommodations. It has around 30 rooms that can take 150 devotee. This Angan is a specious area, and there are several prayer hall around it. If you enter the prayer halls, you have to take your shoes off.
Most interesting thing about the Angan premise is, that it was the "Nouka Mandir". Inside the Mandir, a boat is placed. The founder, Jagadbandhu used to go for a jaunt at river Padma with His devotees, and returned during the last part of the night. This is the reason for such name. Beside the Nouka Mandir, there is a "Roth" placed inside a building. The Roth was completely made from wood. This is not looked like a giant one, only a medium one. During the "Roth jatra" at Ashar of Bengali Almanac, this is used to exhibit for the people. This place is calm and relent place, no chaos from the outside life. If you pass some time inside the premise, it will simply please your mind.

[post_content] => Dighinala Bon Bihar, a very beautiful serene place is located on the way to Sajek valley. It is just before entering the Dighinala town (if you are coming from Khagrachhari).
This is a place for the Buddhist people. The Buddhist religion is one of the world's most peaceful religion. People are always calm and quiet, and so does their religious places. This place is free from any crowds. Inside there, most of the people talks in a low voice (or you should say modest).
After entering inside the main premise through the gate, you can find two temples there. One is having a large statue of the Buddha. And the other one is having two statues (local people say this as the statue of Bhante of Rangamati Bihar (ভান্তে, রাঙামাটি বিহার), and who died recently). In between the two temples, there is a small field like place available which is shaded by a medium sized tree.

Lamarpara Khyang is located on the bank of the Bakkhali River that flows past the Fatekharkul union of Ramu Pourasova, 1 km. south of Ramu Chowmohony Bus-station. The Lamarpara Kyang was built in the first decade of the 19th century by Mr. Thu Aung Gyaw Chowdhury, one of the celebrities of Ramu. The brass image of the Lord Buddha set up on a marble pedestal inside the temple is the second biggest of its king in Bangladesh, the image of the Lord Buddha unearthed in the palace of Bhoj Raja in Comilla being the biggest one.
The artistry of all the structures of the temple complex made of Burma-teak is likely to elate one with wonder. Almost all the Kyangs are of the same pattern and house hundreds of big and small images of the Buddha. There are about twenty three such Khyangs in Ramu only. Except Kutubdia, there are such Kyangs in all other thanas of the district. The Bara Khyang or the big Khyang of Haitopi deserves special mention.

[post_content] => Bikrompur Bouddha Bihar(বিক্রমপুর বৌদ্ধ বিহার) is one of the most ancient Buddhist Bihar (Approximately 1000 years old), buried under soil at Rampal union parishad of Raghurampur Village in Munshiganj District. It is assumed that this Bihar was built in late 8th-9th century AD. It was revealed by conducting excavation very recent years. Bihar is a place being used as a Residential Higher Education Center.
How it was discovered: Researchers said, from the very beginning they had conducted nine test excavations at Rampal & Bojrojogini Union Parishad, where they found the evidences of pre-medieval human settlement. At the 9th grid they discovered the existence of a brick wall. Depending on that evidence Archaeologist dug a trench measuring 80×60m. Later they discovered this Buddhist Bihar.
What can be seen there: In the south-east corner of that structure there are two diagonal brick walls. One is extended from south to north and another one is extended from east to west. Likewise, the other Buddhist Bihar structure the chamber for Buddhist Monk was built beside main brick wall. In the northern side there are five chambers have been revealed. Near to the western there is a another chamber. Dimension of those chambers are nearly three square meter. The side wall dividing the chambers is also being discovered.
Observing the architectural strategy and characteristics, researchers had confirmed this feature as a Buddhist Bihar. Similarity had been found in architectural property and design with the Shompur Bihar (Naogaon), Mahasthangarh (Bogra), Shalbon Bihar ( Comilla) and even with Nalonda Bihar of Patna (India). A pancha-stupa (Five stupa) structure is also been discovered at the middle of that Bihar.
