Destination guide

Ten Dome Mosque

দশ গম্বুজ মসজিদ

About 2 km north-east of the mazar complex stands another Sultanate-era mosque — the Ten Dome Mosque. A small 50 × 18 ft building; visitors count only seven or eight domes — the name-versus-reality mismatch appears here too. It draws almost no crowds; lovers of Khanjahani architecture say the original Sultanate character is at its purest here, though later ill-judged repairs have marred some of it.

History & significance

One of the surviving marks of Khanjahani architecture — no separate inscription or date is known; the style itself dates it to the Sultanate era.

How to get there

৳10–20 by rickshaw or van from the mazar — locals point the way if asked.

Traveller tips

  • Count the domes yourself — some say 7, some 8, the name says 10; that mismatch is part of the fun.
