Bangarh was the ancient city. Bangarh was the capital of Koti Barsha district. During the Gupta period, the whole of North Bengal was known as Pundra Vardhana Bhukti (Pradesh). It was again sub-divided into a number of Vishayas (District). Koti Barsha was one of the districts. Its old name was Debkot/Debikot. In a radius of 8 kms of this area, different ancient archaeological remnants have been found. Under the leadership of Prof Kunja Gobinda Goswami, the excavation work was done between 1938-1941. After excavation, so many historical objects and archeological ruins of the Mauryan era to the Muslim period have been found.
The place is to be considered as historical and cultural landmark of ancient Bengal. It is now situated at Gangarampur area of Dakshin Dinajpur district of West Bengal, India. Excavation of this place by archaeological survey of India (ASI) reveals newer facts. This place is nowadays maintained by ASI.
A 5000 year old ruined monument, from the Mahabharata times.. Visit this place in Gangarampur. When u are here, observe the uniform size of the bricks used in this construction. Amazing ancient architecture.
only some part of the fort is left. The main portion is under the soil. Good place for hang out for short time. As picnic is not allowed here (Historical place) otherwise it could be a good place for picnic.
It's older than Gupta Empire. Myth was it's related with Mahabharata too. It has everything to be one of the best tourist place..But who Cares??
