Mohammed Ali Palace Museum
নবাব প্যালেস / মোহাম্মদ আলী প্যালেস মিউজিয়াম
The colonial-era residence of the Nawabs of Bogra in the city center, now a museum and park displaying antique furniture and wax figures.
Nawab Bari, built in the 19th century, was the residence of the Nawabs of Bogra. Mohammad Ali Bogra, a former prime minister of Pakistan, came from this family. The house is now the Mohammad Ali Palace Museum and Park. Its rooms preserve furniture, tableware, hunting equipment, and old photographs, and wax figures recreate scenes of Nawab family life. The grounds have small amusement rides and gardens, and they are very popular with local families on weekends. Located near the Satmatha roundabout in the city center, it can be reached on foot or by rickshaw. Admission is cheap, at several dozen taka. It is generally open from morning until evening and may close on Sundays.
