The Ramna Kali Mandir ((ベンガル語:রমনা কালী মন্দির)), also known as the Ramna Kalibari (house of the Hindu Goddess Kali), was one of the most famous Hindu temples of the Indian subcontinent. It was believed to be over a thousand years old and was situated in Dhaka (the capital of present-day Bangladesh) on the outskirts of the Ramna Park (now renamed as Suhrawardy Udyan). The temple was bulldozed by the Pakistan Army on 27 March 1971 as it commenced its genocide (see: 1971 Bangladesh Genocide) during the Bangladesh Liberation War ==History== Common lore holds it that the temple was established by a Nepalese devotee of the Goddess Kali who had come to Bengal from the Himalayas. The major development of the temple occurred under the patronage of Rani Bilashmoni Debi of Bhawal estate. The temple was one of Dhaka city's most prominent landmarks, its tower visible for miles around at a time when Dhaka had yet to embrace the highrise culture. In front of the temple was a large ''dighi'' (pond) which was a popular place for both worshippers and visitors to the park to take a dip and cool down. The architecture of the temple reflected the different styles the many centuries over which it was built.The tower was usually called "shikhara" which should not be confused with minerate of mosque. Next to the temple was Ma Anandamoyee Ashram ((ベンガル語:মা আনন্দময়ী আশ্রম)), another place of worship with a residential complex and sanitation facility. The entire temple complex spanned almost and was situated on the south side of Ramna Park, opposite the Bangla Academy. The Ramna Kali Mandir is clearly seen in the pictures of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's famous address of 7 March 1971, probably the last time it was photographed by mass media. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ramna Kali Mandir」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
