Jagaddala Mahavihara, Buddhist monastery ruins in Naogaon District, Bangladesh
The site contains remains of ancient stupas, meditation halls, and monastic chambers spread across multiple archaeological layers in northern Bangladesh.
Founded during the Pala Empire in the 11th century, Jagaddala Mahavihara functioned as one of the primary Buddhist educational centers until its decline.
The monastery complex incorporated architectural elements from both Buddhist and Indian traditions, featuring geometric patterns and detailed stone carvings.
The archaeological site remains open to visitors throughout the year, with nearby accommodations available in the town of Naogaon.
Excavations at the site have uncovered numerous copper plates, manuscripts, and artifacts that document the transmission of Buddhist knowledge across Asia.
