Nimtali arch, Historic gate at Ramna Thana, Bangladesh
The Nimtali arch features intricate stone carvings, ornate wooden details, and traditional Mughal architectural elements across its three-story structure.
Built in 1765 as the entrance to Nimtali Palace, the arch served as a gateway for Deputy Governors of Dhaka until the British administration in 1843.
The structure houses the Asiatic Society Heritage Museum, displaying artifacts and documents from 18th and 19th century aristocratic life in Dhaka.
The arch stands at the entrance of the Asiatic Society of Bangladesh compound, welcoming visitors daily for museum tours and academic research.
Archaeological excavations in 2010 revealed the original foundations, floor levels, and architectural components of this surviving Mughal-era portal.
