Our glorious national heritage
This is an old mosque situated at Kasma village in Gournadi thana, 30-kilometre off Barisal divisional city. It was built during the period of Khan Jahan Ali. Many visitors come to see the mosque named Allah'r Masjid from far-flung areas. They donate generously here in cash and kind including cocks. A mosque management committee looks after it though it is under control of the Archaeology Department. The brick masonry mosque has a seven feet thick wall and nine tombs. It stands on six huge pillars. The government renovated this glorious national heritage recently maintaining its characteristics. Steps should be taken to turn the place into a tourist spot.
