Hinda-Kosba Shahi Mosque
হিন্দা-কসবা শাহী মসজিদ · Khetlal, Hinda village, Khetlal, Joypurhat district, Rajshahi Division
Introduction
Joypurhat's best-known monument, built in 1958 to a design by Pir Abdul Gafur Chishti in a Mughal-inspired style — five domes, a 40-foot minaret, and walls decorated with glass, broken porcelain and mosaic. It stands about 16 km from the district town. Despite the 'Shahi' name, this is 20th-century architecture, not a Mughal-era monument.
Suggested time: 30 minutes – 1 hour
How to get there
From Joypurhat town, take a bus/CNG toward Khetlal, then a van/rickshaw to Hinda village. Joypurhat is served by rail — confirm current schedules.
The honest truth about costs
The mosque is in active use, so no ticket; avoid prayer times.
What you will need to budget for
- Getting there (bus, train, launch or air fare)
- Stay (per night, per room)
- Food (per person, per day)
