Khan Jahan Mosque, Bagerhat, Bangladesh
Mosque And Mausoleum From Southeast
Enclosed within a brick boundary, the mausoleum is part of a complex containing an identical mosque and a ruined brick structure with a sloping roof that served, perhaps, as a gateway or the kitchen. Khan Jahan lived a religious life here from his retirement to his death on 25th October 1459.Overlooking the beautiful Thakur Dighi (lake), the complex stands on a high embankment made from the excavation material of the Dighi. The square artificial lake was construction by Khan Jahan and has a broad, steep flight of steps leading up to the embankment.
