A white palace surrounded by a lush garden. It is a former zamindar's palace. After the end of the British Raj, the building was abandoned and decayed rapidly. In 2004, it was largely restored and turned into a museum which hosts a collection of Blackstone Hindu carvings, calligraphic art from the Mughal period, other objets d'art, and coins. Probably this place was built by Maharaja Kumar Gopal Lal Ray in the beginning of the 20th century. The palace was used as a Rangpur High Court branch of the Bangladesh Supreme Court in 1995.
