Zamindar Gauri Prasad Roy Chowdhury and Krishna Prasad Roy Chowdhury built this massive brick manor in the mid-19th century directly on the Titas riverfront. The multi-wing complex contains roughly 60 rooms, internal courtyards, decorative arches, and a large bathing ghat where zamindar boats once moored. Though weathered and partly overgrown, its quiet waterfront setting provides an atmospheric glimpse into Bengal's feudal history.

How to get to Haripur Zamindar Bari
In Haripur village of Nasirnagar upazila, about 35 km north of Brahmanbaria town. Take a bus or CNG to Nasirnagar (1 hour), then a local auto-rickshaw 15 minutes to Haripur ghat.

The structure is old and crumbling in parts; watch your footing around broken staircases and open balconies.
