MURSHIDABAD TRIP Travel Vlog || ALL PLACES COVERED || FULL DETAILS GUIDE || MON JA CHAI
Murshidabad is a district in the state of West Bengal that is situated on the southern bank of the
River Bhagirathi. It used to be the capital of undivided Bengal during the rule of the Mughals.
The Nawabs of Bengal ruled this historical place for a long time. Many historical buildings with
ancient architecture are a part of Murshidabad’s history. Out of them, the most popular building
is the Hazar Duari Palace and others are Moti Jhill and Muradbagh Palace. Murshidabad
covers a land area of about 5,341 square km. Many agro-based industries including cotton and
silk textiles are based here.
Murshidabad has witnessed a great deal of Palace politics and treachery that led to the transfer
of its control from the last independent Nawab, Siraj-ud-Daulah to the East India Company. This
transfer was the result of a contract between the Company and the Nawabs in the year 1757
AD due to the defeat suffered by Siraj-ud-Daulah at the hands of the English troops.
The Nawab was later on murdered as a part of the conspiracy between the company and Mir
Jafar. It was after this battle, the East India Company shifted its capital to Calcutta and in the
early eighteenth century, the city got its present name and shape. The East India Company
ruled this province for many years after the battle.
Many other kings also ruled different districts here like in the capital city of Sasanka, the king of
Gouda ruled in the seventh century AD. The other Pala kings of Bengal were in this district in
parts of Mahipala. After the seventh century, Nawab Murshid Quli Khan named Murshidabad as
the capital city of Sube Bangla, which also included Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. There are several
religions practised by different races here like Buddhism, Vaishnavism, Jainism, Islam and
Christianity.
Some of the popular places in Murshidabad are Katra Masjid, which was built in 1724 AD by
Nawab Murshid Quili Khan. Jahankosh, which is a huge cannon, about 17.5 ft long, was built by
Janardhan Karmakar in Decca. Other than these ancient sites, there are palaces like Wasef
Manzil that was built by the Nawab of Murshidabad, Sir Wasef Ali Mirza. The main attractions in
this palace are the marble stairs and statues. Other attractions here include Traitors Gate, the
place where Siraj-ud-Daulah was assassinated, Hazar Dwari Palace and Kathgola.

Balagarh : Boats and Temples by Tourist Destination
Boat making has been a thriving business in Balagarh, Hooghly since several centuries. Saptagram situated a few kilometers away from Balagarh was a thriving port during ancient and medieval times. A boat building industry was set up in Sripur, near the present day Balagarh station on the Bandel – Katwa line. Sripur soon started producing not only boats of different shapes and sizes but also ocean going ships turning the non descriptive village into a busy industrial town.
Rickshaws and Totos are available from the Balagarh station to the Sripur temple complex, but it is best to take a leisurely walk. After about 25 minutes of walk you reach the Sripur village, where you are welcomed by the sound of boat maker’s hammer. Although the Balagarh boat industry is now only restricted to small boats but it is still a great experience seeing the boat taking shape. You are also likely come across some over enthusiastic boat maker narrating you about the glorious days of the boat construction industry of Balagarh. Walk past the numerous boat making workshops to the temple complex.
In the early 18th century Rameshwar Mitra of Ula, worked as the Auditor General in the court of Murshid Kuli Khan in Murshidabad. In 1704 Rameswar Mitra received official Mustaufi title from Emperor Aurangzeb in Delhi. In 1708 Rameshwar Mitra’s eldest son Raghunandan settled in Sripur, Hooghly. Taking advantage of the river trade he soon made a fortune and established a fort complex complete with several temples and other religious structures decorated with elaborate and intricate wood curving. The fort has long crumbled into dust but a few of the temples have survived the test of time and can still be seen to this day. On the left of the road lie a temple and a Dol Mancha. The two storied Dol Mancha, with its elegant pillars & arches and crowned with the decorative railing, still reminds one of the glorious days of Sripur. The main temple complex houses the Radha Gobinda Mandir along with several temples, Rash Mancha, Nat Mandir, but the star attraction of the complex is the Chandi Mandap, with its intricate wooden carvings. The three walls of the Chandi Mandap are decorated with the most intricate wood curved panels. The wooden panels are very similar to the terracotta panels that dot the walls of the numerous temples of Bengal. But the wood work is not restricted to the panels alone. The pillars and the roof beams are curved with the finest floral, geometric & figurative designs.
