The Shrine of Siraj Sai

The soil of Harinakundu is blessed for having embraced such great figures as the mystic saints Lalon Shah, Panju Shah and Siraj Sai, and the revolutionary Bagha Jatin. Remnants of ancient Hindu and Buddhist establishments are found here, along with the ruins of the indigo warehouses of the oppressive British.

From Harinakundu Upazila, one can travel by road through Shat Bridge Bazar to reach the shrine of Siraj Sai in Harishpur village. Siraj Sai was the guru of the mystic poet and saint Fakir Lalon Shah.

Location: Harishpur, Harinakundu, Jhenaidah.
