The Historic Mosque City of Bagerhat is a 15th century city with a high density in Islamic religious monuments. Bagerhat, the historical Khalifatabad, was founded by Khan Jahan, an Islamic preacher probably of Turkic origin. This Khan Jahan, about whom not much is known, adorned the city with mosques, roads, bridges, palaces and reservoirs. He established all of this within a short time span, while introducing a distinct architectural style.Only the mosques and Khan Jahan's shrine remain today
