Choto Katra
Choto Katra ((ベンガル語:ছোট কাটারা); ''Small Katara'') is one of the two Katras built during Mughal's regime in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It was constructed in 1663 by Subahdar Shaista Khan. It is on Hakim Habibur Rahman lane on the bank of the Buriganga River. Basically it was built to accommodate some officials and Shaista Khan's expanding family. Choto Katra is slightly smaller than Bara Katra, but similar in plan and it is about 185 metres east to it. ==Origin==
Katara is a form of cellular dormitory built around an oblong courtyard; the form originated in Persia, and like many other things Persian and middle-Asian that the Mughals introduced in this subcontinent, this was copied in Northern India, the home of some of the rulers, members of the Royal Court and the nobility. However, the term may have been derived from Arabic word ''Katara'' which meant colonnaded building, or could be a corrupt French word used for a residential quarter. Other synonyms of it are ''Chuttre'' (French) and ''Chatrra'' (Hindi), both meaning ''Umbrella'', were used for a place that sheltered Pilgrims.
