Built in 1901, this stunning rajbari is an appropriate building for a folk-art museum . The building has two façades. The one facing the street, with steps leading down to the water and life-size English horsemen in stucco on either side, is one of the most picturesque in Bangladesh. The other, at the museum’s ­entrance, is profusely embellished with a mosaic of blue and white tiles, and has something of an Andalucian look to it.
