The zamindar Bari has a lot of history attached to it. Apparently descendants of the Pal Dynasty lived here. And as time went on, “Das” family took their place. Pir Mohammad Badsha gave them the title “Chowdhury” and Ram and Sreeram were also descendants of the bloodline. Such a place that carried so much legacy and now carries so much history should be visited by everyone!

The last descendant of the family was the famous Brajendra Narayan Chowdhury and this fact itself makes the place more interesting. It's not very far from Dhaka, and transportation is also not as inconvenient so I'd say it's a good tourist place and everyone should pay at least one visit there. 8/10 recommended. Also as Pailgaon is a bazaar place, you will find basic roadside restaurants in this locality.
