Lalbagh Fort is located in the Lalbagh area of Old Dhaka on the banks of the Buriganga river in the south western part of the capital Dhaka. Emperor Aurangzeb accepted the plan to build Lalbagh Fort, but his son Prince Shahzada Azam started the construction of Lalbagh Fort in 1678 AD. Initially Lalbagh Fort was named Aurangabad Durg or Aurangabad Fort. Later in 1684 AD, after the death of Iran Dukht Paribibi, daughter of Subedar Shaista Khan, he stopped the construction of the fort. In 1844 the name of the Aurangabad area was changed to Lalbagh. Along with the name of the area, the name of the fort also changed and came to be known as Lalbagh Fort.
Currently Subedar Shaista Khan's residence and durbar hall is used as 'Lalbagh Fort Museum'. There are three gates in Lalbagh fort but in between Both have been closed. As soon as you enter through the gate, the lovely garden cheers up the mind. If you go straight ahead along the entrance, show ahead there is a memory of Shaista Khan's daughter Paribibi purpose built mausoleum. The mausoleum is square in shape. The marble mausoleum has unique craftsmanship and copper plating over the main mausoleum. The wrap has an artificial dome. Also worth seeing are the Lalbagh Fort Mosque, beautiful fountains, some more tombs and cannons/cannons used in warfare during those times.
