Uttara Gano Bhaban
Uttara Gano Bhaban formerly known as The Maharaja's Palace or Dighapatia Palace (or Rajbari) is a historic, also known as royal palace in Natore, Bangladesh. It was built by the Raja of Dighapatia but is used as the official residence of the heads of states of Bangladesh in North Bengal. During the visit at Northern part of the country, President used to stay at this house, that's why its called "Uttara Gonobhobon".This is only 1-2 kilometer apart from the main town of Natore. You can reach there by any vehicles or rickshaws. The whole rajbari premise is around 43 acres. It was initially built by Dayaram Roy. But during the cataclysm of the earthquake of 1897 it was almost wrecked. After that it was rebuilt by Pramada Nath Roy. This is a highly secured palace, and you are not entertained to enter the premise. Every side of the rajbari is occupied with lakes, and after that very high boundary. But if you have the proper permission from the District Commissioner, only then you'll be allowed to enter inside the palace premise. Since this is a highly secured place, and not that much visitor inside of it, thats why its a very tranquil and calm place. No chaos, only sounds from birds, and footsteps from you. Inside the main rajbari, you'll find lots of statues which depict the culture of Greek. Also there are few black colored iron statues available too. It’s a charming place for a tourist. Previously it was closed, people can’t entered in side but now it’s open for public from 25/10/2012 for proper visit & visitor monitoring the management of Uttara Gono Bhaban have sets CC camera, metal detector with other’s security option.
