Cool is a beautiful place surrounded by shade in a noisy city. A perfect place to spend your leisure time. The entrance fee is 15 taka per person.
This place is beautiful and very nice. It's a big mansion. It needs some repairing, the 2nd floor is closed due to security reasons. A must visit place in Mymensingh.
Shashi Lodge, one of the most attractive landmarks of Mymensingh city, is the elegant residential palace for Moharaja Shashikanta Acharya Chowdhury.
Originally the palace was a two-storied structure built in 1877 by Maharaja Suryakanta Acharya Chowdhury for his adopted son Maharaja Shashikanta Acharya Chowdhury.
But a massive earthquake on June 12, 1897 destroyed the whole palace. Later, in between 1905 to 1911, Maharaja Shashikanta rebuilt this new single storied palace.
Suryakanta Acharaya Chowdhury, the successor of Muktagasa Zamidar dynasty build a luxurious tow-stored palace named Shosi Lodge in the city of Mymensingh after the name of his adopted son Soshikanta.
Accordingly, in the middle of the nineteenth century, Suryakanta, the zamindar of Muktagachha, built a two-storey building on nine acres of land. The building was named Shashi Lodge after his adopted son Shashikanta Acharya Chowdhury. The building was destroyed in an earthquake on 12 June 1897. In 1905, Shashikanta, the next zamindar, rebuilt the building at the same place. There are 16 domes at the main entrance of the building. Almost inside.
Chandeliers are hanging from the ceiling in each of the 36 rooms. There are marble fountains inside the building. There was a rare naglingam tree, which was then used as food for elephants. At the back of the building is a two-story bathroom. It is believed that the queen used to sit here and watch the ducks floating in the pond. The ghat of the pond was made of marble stone. Another white stone fountain in the middle of the garden in front of the building. Standing in the middle is a short-sleeved marble statue of the Greek goddess Venus. There was a lotus garden.
