There are many objects of archaeological value in the museum, but they could not be displayed properly due to lack of space and planning, says archaeologist Shahnaz Husne Jahan. She stressed the need for government attention to develop the museum further.  “There is no curator, no government funding, so collecting has come to a halt,” said Kanai Lal Kundu, principle of Panchagarh Government Women's College

The Museum is situated at Panchagarh town at the Government Girls College premises. There are some collection of rocks and ancient items.

About seven crore years ago, the Panchmahal region, along with the population of the Himalayas, was broadly known as 'Tethis', a shallow sea. Two continents, 'Gonduaana' and 'Laureasia', have been moving from one side of the sea to each other. The Himalayan Mountains rise in the 'Myosene' era about two million years ago, due to the severe pressure of 'Tethys' deposited on the oceans. The sea 'Tethys' is lost forever. Panchagarh region was part of the Himalayan sub-progressive cave. In the Panchagarh underground 'Tarsiari' era (approximately 1.66 million years ago) rock level and pre-Camrian (approximately 1.16 billion years ago), the rock and the existing. The lowest rocking layer on this foundation rock is 130 meters thick, which is very high in the Panchagarh area and gradually sloping in the south. Pre-Cameria has been developed in the developed flat country, Ruhia side country, Rangpur, Saddle etc. Panchagarh is located in Padma plains. The land of this land is approximately 10 to 20 thousand years old. Tertiary era stone found in 16 million to 6 crore years has been found in Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling districts. Very ancient and similar stones are found in Panchagarh lands.Navajapartara era tool tool has been discovered in Darjeeling area adjacent to Panchagarh.

It's a Rock museum. Only one museum like this in Asian region. The museum was not that big but it was beautiful enough to see. There were various kinds of rocks and it connects with past histories.

Panchagarh district near the Himalayas compared to other regions in terms of geologic characteristics. There is a lot of gravel stones in the land. Rocks Museum has been built in Panchagarh Government Women's College with chronological samples of underground gravel stone. College principal Dr. It was developed in 1997 by Nazmul Huq's personal initiative. The museum was set up for collecting and collecting land-properties, prehistoric samples, collection and research of the region's territory. There are two internal and open galleries in the Rocks Museum. The internal gallery is in.

A nattraneous collection has been set up in this gallery.

Open Gallery is a huge shape sandy stone, granite stone, quarters, basalt, shell, marble names and rocks, rock ornamented ornamental lines, written arts and illustrated rocks and painted rocks and There are two boats here. Cut a shawl, two huge boats were made. The length of the boat is 22 feet 6 inches. Its age is about three hundred years. These boats are thinking that ancient indigenous people used in Dipappur of the Pacific Ocean. The name of a stone was 'stone Thakur' in the name of the place. Here is the image of the 'arrow-bow' and the image of the goddess. One is Tibetan, Chinese alphabet. A fivefoot tall quaroyite stone was probably in a cemetery. Many experts say analyzing the characteristics of the stones, in the time of nearby Darjeeling, the religion and life of the neo stone era in Panchagarh region were well in the Panchagar region. There is still a lot of tools and tools and tools in Bangladesh are not found in Bangladesh. If the search continues, the archaeological archae of Panchagarh may be discovered in Panchagarh district. To keep the ancient history of our original heritage, to save the country's rare museum to keep alive alive.

Really appreciate their effort to manage and collect all this great stuff...

One and only rock museum in Bangladesh. Its situated inside the Panchagarh Govt Women College.

A good collection of rocks found in Indian sub continent. Different types, shapes, and formation of rocks and archaeological artifacts are stored here. Rare type quartz, different types of underwater stones, sands, wooden boats (made from only one tree) are stored and displayed here. Maintainance is too bad. Government should notice it and keep the artifacts with proper care.

A good collection of historical place.

It's mainly the department of geography of the gorls college. One can see the varieties of rock collection of bangladesh.

Situated in Panchagarh Govt. Women College.

I was amazed to visit this place.This museum have been collected different kinds of rocks, boat which made of one piece of wood and many other things. The first tea tree project of Panchagarh district was found here.i really love this place.

Good

It's a beautiful

Awesome place for amazement

Good

Cool place to relax

Anyone who visit Panchagarh must spand time at rock Museum

good place to achieve knowledge

Gate was locked, not welcoming place. Its signboard says it is a girls degree college.

Well, all of you know about museum. So nothing to say. But i can say that it’s too tough to find that location. It’s actually Panchagarh Women's college. In this college there is a room which is rock museum. There have some old stuff to see. Some stone and some used agricultural stuff. So if you want to visit please go there at college time and working days also.

Extreme Experience

Not much to mention though it has the potentiality to become a real museum. It has to be more enriched with more rocks and giving further details on their time of formation and what minerals they contain.

Vest idea

Nice place to visit. Have different types of old rock...

lovely

This is the 1st rock museum in Bangladesh. Need more support to protect the rock.

It's good

Nothing so special but no maintenance is done now a days. Please keep in mind that this musium is not state run museum rather it is run by Woman College. Most of the time the museum is kept closed. First go to the teachers' room and convey your respect properly to the teachers -- then they will arrange to open the museum for you. I learnt this lesson in a bitter way. From Panchagarh bazar it takes 10 taka rickshaw vara to go there. Tell the rickshaw wala that you want to go to front gate of Woman College (There are two gates: front and back gate)

(Translated by Google) The only stone museum in Bangladesh that falls into neglect and neglect. The locals are more and more dark about it. If you want to know the location of someone, he will fall from the sky or think you are from Mars. It is located inside the Government Women's College in Panchagarh. The college has two gates, you can enter through any one. At the gate I first went to, I failed to tell them what the Rocks Museum was. Then I'm one km away with Google Maps. I crossed the road and went to the back gate (so was the locket at Google). However, when you enter here you will find many different types of stones in the field and some more rare collections in a room in the building Of which there are about 2 foot tall shawl boats about 22 feet long, which are as old as 5 years old. Another thing you'll find is the region's first experimental tea garden ...
