Rajshahi and North Bengal hold some of the richest archaeological and architectural landscapes in Bangladesh. Terracotta temples at Puthia, historic mosques around Rajshahi and Chapai Nawabganj, and the collections of the Varendra Research Museum reveal centuries of Buddhist, Hindu and Islamic heritage.
Farther north, Somapura Mahavihara at Paharpur, Mahasthangarh, Kantajew Temple and rural communities extend the journey across ancient cities, river plains and living craft traditions. The region rewards travelers interested in archaeology, artistry and village culture.
