Burdwan House

Burdwan House, also known as Bardhaman House, is a historic building in Dhaka, Bangladesh, built in 1906 during the British colonial era. This architectural gem blends Mughal and European styles and has significant ties to the political and cultural history of Bangladesh, particularly the Bengali language movement. Originally a guesthouse for high-ranking officials, it later served as the residence for the Chief Ministers of East Pakistan, becoming a focal point for protests advocating for the recognition of Bengali as a state language. Today, it houses the museum of Bangla Academy, making it a must-visit for tourists and researchers interested in Bangladesh's rich heritage.
