ঐতিহাসিক লালবাগ কেল্লা | ঢাকা | Historical Lalbagh Fort | Lalbagh | Dhaka | The Mughal prince Muhammad Azam, third son of Aurangzeb started the work of the fort in 1678 during his vice-royalty in Bengal. He stayed in Bengal for 15 months. The fort remained incomplete when he was called away by his father #Aurangzeb.#Shaista_Khan was the new subahdar of #Dhaka in that time, and he did not complete the fort. In 1684, the daughter of #Shaista_Khan named Iran #Dukht_Pari_Bibi died there. After her death, he started to think the fort as unlucky, and left the #structure incomplete. Among the three major parts of #Lalbagh Fort, one is the tomb of #Bibi_Pari. After #Shaista_Khan left Dhaka, it lost its popularity. The main cause was that the capital was moved from Dhaka to #Murshidabad. After the end of the royal Mughal period, the fort became abandoned. In 1844, the area acquired its name as #Lalbagh replacing Aurangabad, and the fort became #Lalbagh_Fort. For long the fort was considered to be a combination of three buildings (the mosque, the tomb of #Bibi_Pari and the #Diwan_i_Aam), with two gateways and a portion of the partly damaged fortification wall. Recent excavations carried out by the Department of #Archaeology_of_Bangladesh have revealed the existence of other structures.The southern fortification wall has a huge bastion in the southwestern corner. On the north of the south fortification wall were the utility #buildings, #stable, #administration block, and its western part accommodated a beautiful roof-garden with arrangements for fountains and a water reservoir. The residential part was located on the east of the west fortification wall, mainly to the southwest of the mosque.The fortification wall on the south had five bastions at regular intervals two stories in height, and the western wall had two bastions; the biggest one is near the main southern gate. The bastions had a tunnel. The central area of the fort is occupied by three buildings – the Diwan-i-Aam and the hammam on its east, the Mosque on the west and the Tomb of #Pari_Bibi in between the two – in one line, but not at an equal distance. A water channel with fountains at regular intervals connects the three buildings from east to west and north to south.
