Destination guide

Haripur Zamindar Bari

হরিপুর জমিদার বাড়ি

An old zamindar mansion standing on the bank of the Titas — many report that Humayun Ahmed's last film, 'Ghetuputra Komola', was shot right here. River views, weathered buildings, and the quiet afternoon breeze — a favourite spot for photographers.

History & significance

This zamindar-era house sits at Haripur in Nasirnagar, on the eastern bank of the Titas — the marks of age are clear, though no reliable founding date was found. Since the film shoot, it has been climbing travellers' sight lists.

How to get there

A reserved CNG from town is the practical way — the road is long, so plan a full day. One traveller reports local CNGs via Champaknagar also get you there.

Entry fee

No traveller mentioned a ticket — viewing from outside and the courtyard seems open; ask locally about going inside.

Opening hours & best time

Exact hours couldn't be verified — visit in daylight.

Best time

Winter afternoons are best; in the monsoon, a full Titas adds the river view to the visit.

Traveller tips

  • Food options nearby are thin — bring your own.

  • For photos, aim for the soft late-afternoon light.

  • Take local permission before entering or climbing the old structure — it is fragile.
