Murapara Rajbari, Palace complex in Narayanganj District, Bangladesh.

The rectangular palace stretches 200 feet in length with a two-story structure featuring semicircular arches and cast iron details along its western facade.

Ramratan Banerjee, who served as treasurer of the Natore estate, established the palace grounds before his son Protap Chandra built the main structure in 1889.

The palace incorporates Indo-Saracenic Revival and Bengali architectural elements, displaying green, red, and blue glass mosaics throughout the verandah spaces.

Visitors can reach the palace by taking the Dhaka-Sylhet trunk road and following a 5-kilometer brick-paved feeder road from Rupganj.

The building features a 10-foot wide verandah on both levels that protects interior rooms from direct western sunlight through strategic architectural design.
