Haturia is the birth place of Zamindar Sekander Ali Chowdhury who was the Recognized Muslim Zamindar in British Period. Haturia is the place in Gosairhat Upazila where once upon a time, there was Stimar Station. The old structure of Haturia Zamindar Bari is now destroyed for lack of caring. If Government or any other not care it or take any steps, it will be distinct as soon as possible.

Dayarampur Rajbari (দয়ারামপুর রাজবাড়ি) is located in Bagatipara Upazila, inside of the Qadirabad Cantonment under the administration of Bangladesh Army. After taking the oath of the Zamindari, Pramadanath (প্রমদানাথ) Roy (1873-1925), the elder son of then Dighapatia King Promothonath (প্রমথনাথ) Roy (1849-1883), established the Junior Raj Dayarampur Estate in a place named Nondikuza (নন্দীকুজা) on the bank of river Boral and built this Rajbari for his three younger brothers. They are Kumar Bosontokumar Roy (1874-1925), Kumar Sharatkumar Roy (1876-1946) and Kumar Hemendrakumar Roy (1877-1943).
This place was named after Dayaram (দয়ারাম) Roy (1680-1760), the great efficient Dewan of Queen Bhabani (1716-1795) of Natore and the establisher of Dighapatia Royal Family. After the death of Kumar Bosontokumar Roy, Kumar Sharatkumar Roy took the responsibility of the whole Dayarampur Estate and stayed this palace till death. After the eradication of Zamindar dominion, they went to India.

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।

Poddar bari, or according to the local people, the "Panam Rajbari". This is a bit eastern side to the panam city. If someone wants to visit the place, then there is no way except passing through the panam city. This is currently a private property, and there is a picnic spot inside the boundary of the place. The owner of the place used to live at the newly built building beside the old one. But the old one is still empty.
After getting permission you can easily enter the area. Its not known when the building was actually built. But from the structure, and the design, it appears that it was built by some rich merchant during the 1900 AD. The structure and the design is almost identical to the Sonargaon Folk art and craft Museum. Inside the building, the yard is identical to the museum building of sonargaon.
The building comprises of numerous number of rooms. And interestingly you can move from one room to another one easily. There is no window at the rooms, and also no doors, most of those are taken down, or stolen, or something else. Since its a bit darker inside the building, its a hideout for the bats. When camera flashed, we have seen several bats were flying and making noisy sound. Also there nest of other birds which are making continuum sound, but we bet you won't feel bored by those. Those are really nice to hear. So if you are at sonargaon, please don't leave the place by only visiting the panam city. It will worth if you visit the place.
