A national park, declared in 2011, around a huge old tank beside sal forest in Dhamoirhat. Migratory birds visit the water in winter, and there are walking paths through the woods.
Excavated foundations of a Buddhist monastery a few kilometres west of Mahasthangarh. Far quieter than Mahasthan, and reached along village roads.
A three-domed mosque near Chatmohar bazar, built in 1582 under the patronage of Masum Khan Kabuli — one of the earliest surviving Mughal-period buildings in Bengal.
The ruins of a mosque built in 1479 under Sultan Shamsuddin Yusuf Shah. The roof is gone, but the brick walls and stone pillar bases show its original scale. The Darasbari madrasa mound is close by.
An ancient tank in Patnitala upazila with a stone pillar rising from the water in its centre, linked by tradition to the Kaivarta revolt of the Pala era.
The mound of a Buddhist monastery a few miles south of Paharpur, on UNESCO's tentative list. Village life all around and hardly any visitors.
A mosque in Hinda village, Khetlal upazila, built in the mid-20th century and known for its Mughal-style domes and decoration. It draws people from surrounding villages on Fridays.
The remains of a late Pala-period Buddhist monastery in Dhamoirhat upazila near the border. The excavated area is modest, but it pairs well with Altadighi on the same day.
A small temple in Kalachandpara, Pabna town, shaped like two joined thatched-roof huts; sources differ on whether it dates from the 18th or the 19th century. Once covered in terracotta, it is now protected by the Department of Archaeology.
