Destination guide
Chunakhola Mosque
চুনাখোলা মসজিদ
For seekers of hidden places, Bagerhat's sweetest name — Chunakhola Mosque. A Khan Jahan Ali-era mosque on the bank of the small Chuna Khola stream; those who have seen the terracotta mihrab at its entrance praise it highly. Being off the main tourist circuit, it is nearly crowd-free — a chance to see medieval Muslim architecture in peace.
