The Tajhat Jomidar Bari situated in Tajhat village, about six kilometers away from Rangpur city. Ratn businessman Mannalal was the founder of Tajhat zamindari. During the late eighteenth century, he started living in Mahiganj of Rangpur and built a building.
In the earthquake of 1897, his building was destroyed and he was injured and later died. After adopting the responsibility of his adopted son Gopal Lal Roy Bahadur zamindari, in the middle of the twentieth century, he built a zamindari house with the help of about 2,000 masons.
The landlord house is now well known as the Tajhat Zomidar Bari. The building costs around one and a half million taka. In 1917 the building was completed. There are large empty fields, trees, and two ponds on both sides of the palace.
The house is surrounded by the beautiful color of natural beauty, flower gardens, Kamini, Mahogoni, jackfruit and amabagan in north and south. The third and fourth floors of the landlord house, like Ahsan Manzil of Dhaka, have many things used by King Gopal.
The Tajhat Zomidar Bari is built by red bricks, white stones and limestone rocks and is very nice to see. The four-storey zamindari house has innumerable rooms, bathrooms and guest bedrooms. It is approximately 210 feet wide and has four floors high. Its structure is believed to be inspired by the ancient Mughal architecture, which is proof of its appearance in the middle of a large dome and a mosque of its spreading buildings on both sides.
But the Rajbari is different from all the other palaces of Bangladesh, which is its stairs. There is a total of 31 stairs, all of which are made of marble in Italian genres. From the stairs to the museum, the floor is all made of the same stone.
There is a secret staircase behind the palace. This secret staircase is connected to a tunnel, which is heard directly in connection with the river Ghaghat, but the stairs are now closed due to security reasons.
The beautiful fountain of the palace is evident in the evolution of the time, the white marble and its gorgeous design is somewhat dirty, yet it is still visible. It is said that it was built specifically for the queen. Prior to 2005, the zamindar house is known to everyone as Tajhat Rajbari.
