5/5 Sajib Ahammed (সজিব �. 1 year ago on Google
It
is
a
very
quiet
place.
Although
I
went
during
the
fasting
month.
The
weather
was
very
hot
but
the
place
was
very
clean.
Next
to
Lalan
Shah's
grave
is
the
grave
of
his
foster
mother
and
in
front
of
it
are
the
graves
of
some
of
Lalan
Shah's
followers.
To
protect
the
sanctity
of
the
shrine,
taking
pictures
with
mobile
phones
and
cameras
is
prohibited
inside
the
shrine.
Next
to
the
shrine
is
a
three-storied
auditorium
where
Lalan's
followers
stay
and
singing
songs.
Next
to
it
is
the
academic
building,
there
is
the
Lalan
Museum
on
the
ground
floor,
the
library
on
the
second
floor,
the
monitoring
room
on
the
third
floor
and
the
Lalan
Culture
and
Music
Education
School
on
the
fourth
floor.
On
the
other
side
of
the
shrine
there
is
a
large
monochord
sculpture.
There
is
a
shower,
toilet
and
drinking
water
facility.
Lalan
Mela
is
held
twice
every
year.
Once
during
the
festival
of
Dol
Purnima
and
another
time
on
the
1st
of
Bangla
Kartik
month
(16th
of
October).
This
fair
is
organized
at
Lalan
Akhara.
In
Lalon
Mela,
his
disciples
come
from
all
over
the
country.
Also,
many
visitors
from
the
country
and
abroad
also
come.
Here
the
Baul
song
festival
goes
on
throughout
the
night.
The
shrine
is
decorated
with
colors
on
this
occasion.
However,
there
is
criticism
that
ganja
sessions
are
held
at
this
fair,
devotees
come
here
and
consume
ganja.
If
someone
wants
to
come
from
Dhaka
by
train,
get
down
at
Poradah
railway
station.
Then
from
Poradah,
take
an
easy
bike
or
auto
rickshaw
to
Chowrhas,
then
get
down
here
by
bus
or
easy
bike
and
get
down
at
Dabirmolla
gate,
and
from
there
take
an
easy
bike
to
Lalon
Shah's
shrine.
If
you
want,
you
can
reserve
a
car
from
the
station
and
go
to
the
shrine.
In
that
case,
the
rent
may
increase.
If
you
are
traveling
by
train
from
Khulna,
Jessore,
Rajshahi,
Chilahati,
you
can
first
get
down
at
Poradah
railway
station
and
follow
the
same
rules.
