Sacred Sites of West Bengal
West Bengal’s sacred architecture spans centuries of diverse spiritual traditions. This collection includes the 19th-century Navaratna-style Dakshineswar Kali Temple and the universalist design of Belur Math. The 15th-century terracotta mosques of Gaur, such as Tantipara and Lotan Masjid, display intricate brickwork from the Sultanate period. Buddhist influence is represented by the Peace Pagoda and the historic Ghum Monastery in Darjeeling, which houses a 15-foot statue of the Maitreya Buddha.
