INTRODUCTION

I love to travel as well as painting. Travelling is what wakes my creativity up and it is also happiness itself. So I travel in lots of places. Today I want to share some experience of roaming in Mursidabad which is one of the best tourist spot for its historical places. This place is especially popular for Hazarduari palace which is located in the campus of killaNizamat in Mursidabad. And here you will see some other historical places like tomb of Azim-Un-Nisa daughter of Murshidkuli Khan, NashipurRajbari, Katgola, Katra mosque and Motijhiletc.

1-AZIM UN NISA BEGUM’S SAMADHI

The journey begins from kornosubarna. Here I just stayd and started my journey. Then I hired a Tanga(carriage) and atfirst went to the tomb of Azim-Un-Nisa who is the daughter of Mursidkuli khan. There I saw somestairs under which the tomb was situated. There is a story provided by the people of Mursidabad that The Begum had some health issue with her heart, so her doctor suggested if she could eat the heart of small children then the disease could be fixed. And it is heard that she would eat that though it is just story yet. For that her father entombed her alive and announced that people will walk in those stairs as such it seem they are walking on her chest. Apart from that this place is also very beautiful for its gardens around it.

2-NASIPUR RAJBARI

Then we left that place and again started our journey and went to NasipurRajbari, Which is thought as the miniature replica of Hazarduary. This Rajbari was created by King kirti Chandra SinghaBahadur in 1900’s. This place has a mystical beauty for Hindu iconography. Here we can see a Thakurbari which is the main attraction of this palace where The family deity,Sri Ramchandra Deb Thakur is located. And this Rajbari has another attraction of grand flight of stairs. Also every year Jhulan, celebrating the divine love of Lord Krisna and Radha is held in the palace. Also you can see many beautiful and historical sculpture andalso theTemples of Lord Hanumana,devi Kali etc.here. In this video you can see the guide’s instructions.

3-KATGOLA

Leaving the Rajbari we went to the Katgola which was once a capital of Bengal. Katgola palace, Katgola garden and kathgola temple was built by lakshmipat Singh Dugar. Here you can see a underground pathway which was used for business at that time. Jagathseth who was the richest business and money lander of mursidabad made the kathgola for business. He always impresses King NawabSirajUdDulla By showing him cantatrices dance for his business’s help. Here you will see AdinathTemple(PareshNath Temple) which is dedicated to VagwanAdisvar situated in Adihnath Temple. Here you can see the ornamented wall of the kathgola palace, a demolished part of the palace, a statue of Michelangelo in the garden, Statue of another brother who built kathgola, the lion gate and a kathgolajain temple.

4 – HAZARDUARI

Now we went the most popular place of Mursidabad which is Hazarduari palace, earlier known as Bara kothi which has thousands of real and false doors, for thieves as they can’t escape. It was built in nineteenth century by architect Duncan Macleod under the reign of NawabNazimHumayunJah at a cost of rs. 60.50 lacks (AD 1829-37). You can see the Bhagirathi River just behind the Hazrduari Palace. The grand flight of stairs attracts the tourist and also the Imambara opposite to Hazarduari. The palace has now transformed into a museum which houses the collection from the Nawabs like priceless paintings, furniture, antiques and so on. Here you can also see a clock tower outside the Hazarduari. And in the museum there is an amazing mirror where you can’t see your own face but others can. Another attraction is the south gate of the palace also known as DaksinDarwaza.

5 -KATRA MASJID

Then we went to the katra masjid which is the oldest and the most imposing Islamic architecture at Mursidabaad. According to an inscription over the doorway, it wasbuilt by NawabMursidKhuli Khan. It is basically known for the tomb of the Mursidkuli Khan and also for great Islamic learning. Here you can see two large corner towers which have loopholes in it.

You should obviously visit this place once in a life. I hope you all like this article and enjoyed the video.

THANKS FOR VISITING.

Hazarduari Palace (Murshidabad) হাজারদুয়ারী প্যালেস

#Knowledgebangla
হাজারদুয়ারী প্যালেস

Hazarduari Palace, earlier known as the Bara Kothi, is located in the campus of Kila Nizamat in Murshidabad, in the Indian state of West Bengal.It is situated near the bank of river Ganga. It was built in the nineteenth century by architect Duncan Macleod, under the reign of Nawab Nazim Humayun Jah of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa (1824–1838).
The foundation stone of the palace was laid on 9 August 1829, and that very day the construction work was started. William Cavendish was the then Governor-General. Now, Hazarduari Palace is the most conspicuous building in Murshidabad.
It has also become a tourist attraction all over India.
In 1985, the palace was handed over to the Archaeological Survey of India for better preservation.
The palace was built and designed under the supervision of Colonel Duncan MacLeod of the Bengal Corps of Engineers. He was the father of Sir Donald McLeod. The foundation stone of the palace was laid by Nawab Nazim Humayun Jah of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa (1824–1838) on August 29, 1829, and that very day the construction work was started. The construction was completed in December 1837.
The concrete bed on which the foundation stone was to be laid was built so deep that the Nawab had to use a ladder to descend. The suffocating atmosphere created due to the large concourse of people, which stood surrounding them, caused His Highness to faint. The foundation stone was laid after he was brought up.
The name of the palace that is Hazarduari means a palace with a thousand doors. Hazar means thousand and Duari means the one with doors; thus, the total sums up to the one with a thousand doors.
The palace earlier known as Bara Kothi has been named so as the palace has in all 1000 doors, of which 100 are false. They were built so that if any predator tried to do something wrong and escape, he would be confused between the false and real doors, and by that time he would be caught by the Nawab's guards.
 enclosure where the palace is situated is known as Kila Nizamat or Nizamat Kila. The campus except this palace, has in addition the Nizamat Imambara, Wasif Manzil, the Bachhawali Tope, Murshidabad Clock Tower, three mosques out of which one is the Madina Mosque, and the Nawab Bahadur's Institution. Other buildings include residential quarters. It is situated on the east bank of the Bhagirathi River, which flows just beside it. The gap between the Bhagirathi's banks and the palace is just 40 feet (12 m); however, the foundations are laid very deep, which protect the palace. The palace is rectangular in plan (130 meters long and 61 meters broad) and is a good example of Indo-European architecture. The front facade of the palace, which has the grand staircase, faces north. This staircase is perhaps the biggest one in India.
The palace has 1000 doors, of which 100 are false, and a total of 114 rooms.
The Bacchawali Tope which lies in the campus of Kila Nizamat was brought by Murshid Quli Khan. This cannon has been placed on high altar and its mouth has been covered up with an iron plate. It is said that when used it made such a huge noise that it forced pregnant women to give birth to babies at that very time.
The palace was used to hold durbars (official or royal meetings) and official works between the Nawabs and the Britishers and also used as a residence for high-ranking British officers. It has now been transformed into a museum which houses collection from the Nawabs like priceless paintings, furniture, antiques.
A grand flight of stairs of 37 steps of stone, the lowermost one of which is 108 feet (33 m) long, leads up to the palace's upper portico. Perhaps it is the largest one in India. The pediment of the palace is supported by 7 huge pillars, each being 18 feet (5.5 m) at the base. There is also the Nawabi Coat of Arms depicted on the pediment. This grand staircase is perhaps the biggest one in India.
On either side at the beginning of the grand staircase are two statues of two seated masonry Victorian lions with stone slabs embedded in the wall behind them.
There are several large gates used as an entrance to the palace some which bear names like the Imambara, Chawk and Dakshin Darwaza (south gate). The main gates have Naubat Khanas (musicians' galleries) over them and are large enough that an elephant/dinosaur may pass with a howdahon its back.
The Durbar Hall of the palace which houses the furniture used by the Nawab has a crystal chandelier hung from the ceiling. It is the second largest chandelier in the world, after one in Buckingham Palace. It was given to the Nawab by Queen Victoria.
There are also two pairs of mirrors in the museum, that are placed at an angle of 90 degrees in such a way that one cannot see one's own face but others can see. It was used by the Nawab to prevent predators from harming him, and was kept at a place so that the predator cannot see his face and think a mirror to be there but the Nawab could and he would be caught.

7 Wonders of India: Hazarduari Palace

Hazarduari Palace - Murshidabad - India

Having spent many years in India over the last thirty years,I must say that Murshidabad really is a special place.The fact that it is untouched by tourism is probably what keeps it so special,with extremely hospitable people,who took care of me to the point where I was embarrassed.That kind of stuff still happens in India,but not everywhere,and certainly not in the places that attract a lot of tourists.And the history of that town is a book unto itself.I spent a week there and came away thinking that if I hadn't had a wife and kids to return to ,I'd have been happy to have spent a whole winter there,indulging myself in my hobbies of photography,painting,researching history,and just hanging out with the lovely local people in general

Hazarduari Palace is located in the campus of Kila Nizamat of Murshidabad. It was built in the nineteenth century by architect Duncan Macleod, under the reign of Nawab Nazim Humayun Jah of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa (1824--1838). The foundation stone of the palace was laid on August 9, 1829, and that very day the construction work was started. William Cavendish was the then Governor-General. Now, Hazarduari Palace is the most conspicuous building in Murshidabad. In 1985, the palace was handed over to the Archaeological Survey of India for better preservation

The present Nizamat Imambara was built in 1847 AD by Nawab Nazim Mansoor Ali Khan Feradun Jah,who succeeded his father Nawab Nazim Humayun Jah in Murshidabad, India. It was built after the fires of 1842 and 1846 which burnt the wooden Imambara built by Nawab Siraj ud-Daulah. This Imambara is the largest one in India and Bengal.[citation needed]

The Katra Masjid (also known as Katra Mosque) is a mosque and the tomb of Nawab Murshid Quli Khan built between 1723 and 1724. It is located in the north eastern side of the city. Its importance lies not only as a great centre of Islamic learning but also for the tomb of Murshid Quli Khan, who is buried under the entrance staircase. The most striking feature is the two large corner towers having loopholes for musketry. At present it is maintained and protected by the Archaeological Survey of India and the Government of West Bengal.

Bacchawali Tope is a gun, rather cannon which lies in the Nizamat Fort Campus on the garden space between the Nizamat Imambara and the Hazarduari Palace and to the east of the old Madina Mosque. The cannon consists two pieces of different diameters. The cannon was made between the 12th and 14th century, probably by the Mohammeddan rulers of Gaur. It originally lied on the sand banks of Ichaganj. However, it is unknown that how it came in Ichaganj. It was used to protect the city of Murshidabad from north-western attacks. After the 1846 fire of the Nizamat Imambara the Imambara was rebuilt, then after the completion of the new Imambara the cannon was shifted to its present site by Sadeq Ali Khan, the architect of the sacred Nizamat Imambara under the suggestion of Sir Henry Torrens, the then agent of the Governor General at Murshidabad.
