History:

The gateway of North Bengal, Malda, once a capital of Bangla as Gour-Banga with its 3456 sq kms lay of the land classified into Tal, Diara, and Barind awaits the advent of tourists and people of archeological interest with its wealth to be enjoyed and its huge potential to be explored. This portion of the Earth is washed by the waves of the rivers Ganges, Mahananda, Fulahar, and Kalindri and had been the witness of different empires raised, flourished and cast down near oblivion by a successor kingdom built up on the relics of its predecessor. It had been within the limits of ancient 'Gour' and 'Pandua' (Pundrabardhana). These two cities had been the capital of Bengal in ancient and medieval ages and are equidistant, north and south, from English Bazar town (established by the British rulers).After the Guptas in the beginning of 7th century AD Sasanka, the king of Karnasubarna as well as the king of Gour ruled independently for more than three decades. From the middle of 8th century to the end of 11th century the Pala dynasty ruled Bengal, the kings were devoted to Buddhism. The Pala Dynasty yielded to the emergence of Sen Dynasty, the Sen rulers were Hindus, and in the habit of moving from place to place within their kingdom. At the time of Lakshman Sen Gour was known as Lakshmanabati. Thereafter the Muslim rule lasted for about five hundred years before Sirajuddaulah was defeated by Lord Clive at the battle of Plessey in 1757 whence the British rule started.
This district was formed out of some portions of outlying areas of Purina, Dinajpur and Rajshahi districts in 1813. At the time
B. Hamilton (1808 - 09), the present's thanas of Gazole, Malda, Bamongola, and part of Habibpur were included in the district of Dinajpur and the thanas of Harischandrapur, Kharba, Ratua, Manikchak, and Kaliachak were included in the district of Purina. In 1813, in consequence of the prevalence of serious crimes in the Kaliachak and Sahebganj thanas and also on the rivers, a Joint Magistrate and Deputy Collector was appointed at Englishbazar with jurisdiction over a number of police stations centering that place and taken from the two districts. Thus the district of Malda was born. The year 1832 saw the establishment of separate treasury and the year 1859 the posting of a full - fledged Magistrate and collector.Upto 1876, this district formed part of Rajshahi Division and between 1876 & 1905, it formed part of Bhagalpur Division. In 1905, it was again transferred to Rajshahi Division and till 1947 Malda remained in this division. In August, 1947, this district was affected by partition, between the 12th & 15th 0f August. 1947, the fate of the district as to which side it should go, to Pakistan or to India was undecided, because the announcement of the partition award of Sir Radcliff did not make this point clear. During these few days the district was under a Magistrate of East Pakistan, when the details of the Radcliff award were published, the district came over to West Bengal on the 17th of August. 1947.

Place of visit
Ramkeli
A distance of nearing 14 Km from Malda town towards south. A small village on the way to Gour, Ramkeli is famous for being the temporary home of Sri Chaitanya, the great religious reformer of Bengal, where he had stayed for a few days on his way to
Brindaban. A conglomeration of two Tamal and two Kadamba trees can still be seen, under which the saint is said to have
meditated. A small temple constructed under this tree contains Sri Chaitanya's footprints on stone. There are eight kundas or
tanks flanking the temple. These are named as Rupsagar, Shyamkunda, Radhakunda, Lalitakunda, Bishakhakunda, Surabhikunda, and Ranjakundaand Indulekhakunda. Every year, on the Jaishthya Sankranti, celebrations are held here to commemorate the arrival of Sri Chaitanya. A week-long fair also starts on this day.

Gour
(Situated at a distance of 16 km. south of Malda town on the border with Bangladesh. Gour came into prominence as the 7th
century capital of King Shashanka, and was the capital of ancient Bengal for several centuries.) Baroduari / Boro Sona Mosque Baroduari mosque is half a kilometer to the south of Ramkeli. A gigantic rectangular structure of brick and stone, this mosque is
the largest monument in Gour. Though the name means Twelve Doors, this monument actually has eleven. The construction of this huge mosque, measuring 50.4 m. by 22.8 m., and 12 m. in height, was started by Allauddin Hussein Shah and was completed in 1526 by his son Nasiruddin Nusrat Shah. The Indo-Arabic style of architecture and the ornamental stone carvings make Baroduari a special attraction for tourists.

Dakhil Darwaja
An impressive gateway built in 1425, is an important Muslim monument. Made of small red bricks and terracotta work,
this dominating structure is more than 21 m. high and 34.5 m. wide. Its four corners are topped with five-storey high towers.
Once the main gateway to a fort, it opens through the embankments surrounding it. In the south-east corner of the fort,
a 20-m. high wall encloses the ruins of an old palace. In the past, cannons used to be fired from here. Hence the gate also came to be known as the Salaami Darwaza

Firoz Minar
A kilometer away from the Dakhil Darwaza is the Feroze Minar. It was built by Sultan Saifuddin Feroze Shah during 1485-89.
This five-storey tower, resembling the Qutb Minar, is 26 m. high and 19 m. in circumference. The first three storeys of the tower have twelve adjacent faces each, and the uppermost two storeys are circular in shape. A spiraling flight of 84 steps takes one to the top of the tower. Built in the Tughlaqi style of architecture, the walls of Feroze Minar are covered with intricate terracotta carvings. This landmark is also known as the Pir-Asha-Minar or the Chiragdani.

Chamkati Masjid
Chika Mosque Sultan Yusuf Shah built the Chika Mosque in 1475. The name originated from the fact that it used to shelter a large number of chikas, or bats. It is a single-domed edifice, almost in ruins now. The beautifully ornate carvings on the walls and the images of Hindu idols on the stonework of doors and lintels are still partly visible. The mosque also bears traces of Hindu temple architecture

Luko Churi Gate
The Lakhchhipi Darwaza or Lukochuri Gate is located to the south-east of the Kadam Rasool Mosque. Shah Shuja is said to have built it in 1655 in the Mughal architectural style. The name originated from the royal game of hide-and-seek that the Sultan used to play with his begums. According to another school of historians, it was built by Allauddin Hussein Shah in 1522. Situated on the eastern side of the royal palace, this double-storeyed Darwaza functionally acted as the main gateway to the palace. The innovative architectural style makes it an interesting place to visit.

Kadam Rasul Mosque
Half a kilometre away from the Feroze Minar is the Kadam Rasool Mosque. Aptly named Kadam Rasool, which means Footprints of the Prophet, the mosque contains the footprints of Hazrat Muhammad on stone. On the four corners there are four towers made of black marble, with the spires on top covered with intricate artwork. Sultan Nasiruddin Nusrat Shah built the mosque in 1530.Opposite the Kadam Rasool Mosque stands the 17th century tomb of Fateh Khan, a commander of Aurangzeb's army.
This interesting structure was built in the Hindu chala style.

Tantipara Mosque
A short distance away is the elegant Tantipara Mosque, with its intricate terracotta decoration.

Lattan Mosque
Lattan Mosque, legend attributes the building of this mosque to a dancing girl of the royal court. However, historians believe it was built by Sultan Shamsuddin Yusuf Shah in 1475. Traces of intricate mina work in blue, green, yellow, violet and white on the enamelled bricks lining the outer and inner walls are still visible. The splendour of colours has also led to the Mosque being called the Painted Mosque. Another interesting feature of this mosque is its arched roof, supported by octagonal pillars.

Top

Gumti Darwaja
Gumti Darwaza Standing to the north-east of the Chika Mosque, the Gumti Darwaza was built in 1512 by Allauddin Hussein Shah.Made of brick and terracotta, the once brilliant colours woven into the artwork are still partly visible. It is said that real gold wasm used in the decorations. The Darwaza, however, is closed to the public now.
