Mithapukur Bara Mosque (Tin Katar Mosjid)

মিঠাপুকুর বড় মসজিদ

About 24 km south of Rangpur city, beside the Rangpur-Bogura highway, stands the roughly 220-year-old Mithapukur Bara Mosque — three domes, four corner pillars, pillars in three rows: locals call it the Tin Katar Mosjid. A calm piece of heritage next to a busy highway that most travellers simply drive past.
