The Bagerhat Sixty Dome Mosque trip is a compact half-day in one of Bangladesh's UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the 15th-century mosque city founded by Khan Jahan Ali. It suits travellers interested in architecture and early Islamic Bengal, and fits easily alongside a Sundarbans visit from Mongla or Khulna.
The highlight is the great brick mosque with its forest of pillars, its terracotta decoration and the row of mihrabs along the west wall, best appreciated slowly with a guide to point out what is original. Shirin Akter, based between Mongla and Bagerhat with nine years of experience, adds the story of the general who cleared forest, built roads and dug tanks to found his city. At the saint's tomb, crocodiles still live in the neighbouring tank, and local tradition links them to two kept by the saint himself. The tomb is a working shrine, so remove your shoes and keep your voice low. Shirin guides in Bangla, English and Hindi.
