Absolutely it’s a great historical and a holy place to visit, whole Mazar complex has two main edifices (one is a mosque, and another one is a tomb) along with a large water tank and few graves. The right side complex is the tomb. People believe that the tomb has grave inside and it could be of Khan Jahan Ali who was a saint general of 15th century in Bagerhat City!
The whole Mazar (মাজার) complex has two main edifices (one is a mosque, and another one is a tomb) along with a large water tank and few graves. Theright side complex is the tomb. Peoplebelieve that the tomb has grave inside and it could be of Khan Jahan Ali (খান জাহান আলী) who was a saint general of 15th century. But many scholars though doubt about it (they believe it's someone else). On an inscriptionit is written that he died at 24-25 October of 1459. Lot of people use to come here everyday for praying. People call this as Mazar (মাজার).
Very nice historical place. But it's situation is degrading day to day
Beauty of muslim culture of 15th century is still present here. The holy grave of the saint Khan Jahan Ali is in Bagerhat, many wonders are around it.

nice place
Bagerhat, a great historical place. There You will see the Mazar of Khan Jahan Ali – a fine one storied building, It has a beautiful dome. Hazrat Khan Jahan Ali was buried there. The tomb is made of cut out stones. It cannot be accurately said where from these were brought. It is said that Pir Hazrat Khan Jahan Ali brought these from Chittagong by floating on water. On the tomb there are inscriptions in Arabic.
Excellent old architectural work, Muslim heritage
Muslim holy place in bd
Beauty of muslim culture of 15th century is still present here.
The holy grave of the saint Khan Jahan Ali is inBagerhat, many wonders are around it.
An amazing tour is possible in Bagerhat of Bangladesh to see not only an adventurous graveyard but also some historical but beautiful places. You can find here two of the oldest mosques, the Shat Gambuj Mosque and the one Gambuj Mosque.
In 1442 a muslim saint Ulugh Khan Jahan Ali came in Khalifabad (present Bagerhat) to spread the religion Islam. He used to live on the bank of a river and used to use crocodiles for good works. After his death there was situated a majar around his grave and the river died. But the crocodiles are still there from the time of his death.
Some of the crocodiles of the majar are thousands year old and they does not eat human body without hen and duck. So people can touch them truely without danger and people believe that the crocodiles can make any wish true. I became astonished after touching a crocodile for the first time.
Where the saint is sleeping down there are some strange manners also. The whole majar is decorated in 15th century and the design of former muslim culture is wonderful! The majar is standing here which is made of burn mud from 15th century.
Around the majar there seems like a fair. you can buy things like flute, cap etc. The road transport system is quiet good, available and easy so people come here everyday from different places. You can take an opportunity like me to see the signature of former culture at the majar of Khan Jahan Ali in Bagerhat.
The wind of nearby sea, the trees around a dead river site and the wonders of the majar can’t be neglected by you. Every angle of the environment will attract your sight.
A very holy place for Muslim people, but other religions people also visit the place for fulfill their prayers.
