Chandgaon Mosque, Modern mosque in Chandgaon Thana, Bangladesh
Chandgaon Mosque comprises two identical box-shaped volumes with thick masonry walls and wide, low openings that link interior spaces to the surrounding landscape. The building features imported Italian marble flooring and occupies approximately 1000 square meters.
Architect Kashef Mahboob Chowdhury completed this mosque in 2007 to replace an older structure that had fallen into poor condition. The project represented a modernization of religious infrastructure in the area.
The mosque serves as a gathering place where the community comes together for Friday prayers and religious celebrations throughout the year. Walking inside, visitors notice how the open layout encourages people to move freely between different parts of the building.
The building sits in a residential area near the edge of Chittagong port and is easily accessible from local streets. Visitors should wear modest clothing and remove their shoes before entering the prayer spaces.
The roof features a split dome design that creates natural air circulation and keeps interior spaces cool. This approach differs from conventional mosque buildings and shows an innovative solution for ventilation.
