During the last autumn vacation i got such an opportunity to visit Bagerhat, a great historical place.. there i saw the Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali a fine one storeyed building. it has a beautiful dome... Hazrat Khan Jahan Ali was buried there.. the tomb is made of cut out stones.. it cannot be accurately said where from these were brought.. it is said that pir Khan Jahan Ali brought these from chottogram by floating on water.. on the tomb there are inscriptions in Arabic.. an inscriptions says that he died on 25 October,1459.. there is a small mosque nearby.. a close associate of Khan Jahan Ali was buried outside the tomb.. on the night of the full moon of the month of chaitra a big fair is held beside the Mazar.. many people attend the fair..

there is a big tank in front of the Mazar.. the local people call it the dighti of Khan Jahan Ali.. there are some crocodiles in this big tank.. they come near when the fakirs call them and give them something to eat.. i saw the dighi with my own eyes and derived much pleasure ..
