Puthia Shiva Temple | World Temple
Puthia, a place that attracts the most tourists who go to Rajshahi. Raja Pitambor was originally the founder of the Puthia dynasty. He established Puthiya as the capital in the late sixteenth century and early in the seventeenth century. He dug a reservoir with several lovely buildings.
Rani Bhubanwamy built the Bhubaneshwar Shivmandir in front of a large reservoir (1823-1830). It is also known as Pancharatna Shivmandir. Among the high and large clusters of Shivmondir in Bangladesh, the Pancharatna Shivmandir at Puthia demands excellence in architectural style.
It is one of the main architectural beauty of Bangladesh. Other attractions in Puthia include Chauchala Govinda Mandir, Pancharatna Govinda Mandir, Dolamandir or Dolmancha, Dochhala small Ahik Mandir, Jagadvatri Mandir, Rathmandir, etc. The landlords of Puthiya built these temples in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
In the same complex of grandeur, such a temple complex is nowhere to be seen anywhere except Bangladesh. There is only one such temple complex in Vishnupur under Bankura district of West Bengal (India). Puthia Rajbari, temples, Dighi and reservoirs, the whole square of the palace is an ideal and attractive place for tourists to visit.
