What you can see and do
From this two-storey building in Shahjadpur the Tagores once ran their zamindari. In the 1890s Rabindranath Tagore stayed here while he saw to that work, and wrote a number of stories, poems and parts of plays. It is now a museum with his furniture, a palanquin and photographs.

Shahjadpur is about 45 km south-west of Sirajganj town, around an hour and a half by bus; the house is close to the bazaar.
