Chandanpura Nachghar

Chandanpura Nachghar, Dance hall in Chittagong, Bangladesh

Chandanpura Nachghar is a two-story brick building in Chittagong with 14 rooms displaying traditional architectural details and intricate floral patterns on its walls. The layout includes dedicated performance spaces and artist quarters arranged across both floors.

This structure was built approximately 250 years ago by a zamindar's family and served as an entertainment venue for the wealthy class. Following the family's migration to India during the British period, the property eventually came under government ownership.

The building is known as the dance hall of zamindar Sajjalela's house, where baijee, professional dancers, performed; a separate dressing room was set aside for them. Ten doorways open around the dance hall, and the two-storey brick structure holds 14 rooms, guest rooms among them.

The building stands beside the Chandanpura Fire Service Station on Nawab Siraj-ud-Daulah Road, so it is reached from that road. The staircase in one corner, the only way up to the second floor, is in ruins, so the upper level cannot be visited. The structure is preserved as the proposed Fire Service and Civil Defense Museum.

The building has 14 rooms, including guest rooms, and ten entrance doors around the dance hall. A separate dressing room was built for the baijee, the professional dancers who performed here. The staircase in one corner, the only way up to the second floor, is now in ruins.
