Destination guide
Rabindra Complex
রবীন্দ্র কমপ্লেক্স
Rabindranath Tagore's in-laws' home in Dakshindihi village, Phultala — the birthplace of his wife Mrinalini Devi. A two-storey heritage house with a museum inside and an open lawn out front. Quiet and uncrowded; for Tagore lovers it has a pull of its own.
History & significance
The house of Tagore's father-in-law Beni Madhab Roy Chowdhury. Protected by the Department of Archaeology since 2000 and recognised as a museum in 2016. About 19 km north of Khulna city.
How to get there
From Khulna take a Phultala-road bus/laguna (৳30–50), then a battery van to Dakshindihi (~20 minutes). The whole trip takes about 25–40 minutes.
