RANGPUR, Sept 19: "A thing of beauty is a joy forever", a famous quote of English romantic poet John Keats, is pretty well pertinent to Tajhat Palace in Rangpur as the historic site still leaves the visitors breathless with its majestic scenery and objects representing a unique culture.
Popular by another name, the Zamindar Bari in Tajhat, three killometres off Rangpur city, the palace stands quite as an epitome of historic spendour.
The palace was built by Maharaja Kumar Gopal Lal Roy at the beginning of the 20th century.
He was a successor to Manna Lal Roy, the founder of Zamindar families in Tajhat as well as in some other areas of Rangpur.
Maharaja Gopal had appointed 2,000 workers to complete the work of his royal palace.
