Soshi lodge

Soshi lodge / Mymensingh palace
Mymensingh, Bangladesh

Built by muktagacha's royal family more than hundred years ago. Muktagacha's zamindar Maharaja Suryakanta Acharyya died before it could be completed. Then it was completed by Maharaja Soshikanta Acharyya. This building had once contained innumerable works of art, artifacts, sculpture and antiques collection from all over the world. This building has been declared as National heritage Monument. But unplanned development already damaged the scenario of rare Russian architecture in this country. There is a Sculpture of greek god Athena in front of this palace made by white stone.
