Summary
[edit]DescriptionDakhil Darwaza at Gaur in Malda district 14.jpg |
English: The impressive gateway named Dakhil Darwaza built of brick was probably built by Sultan Barbak Shah (c.1459-74 AD) and served as the main entrance on north into the citadel of Gaur. It was also called 'Salami Gate' as salutes were fired from its sides. The facade of the gateway measures 73' 4" in breadth and rises to a height of 60'.
The gateway represents the height of excellence that the brick masons of Bengal were capable of achieving. The archway which is 34' high upto the apex of the pointed arch, is flanked by a pylon like buttress, one on each side of the frontage and guarding the portal. The archway between the two pylons provides a deep and wide portico containing the arched opening, which leads into a central vaulted passage, with a guard room on each side. The entire structure has beautiful terracotta ornamentation and a guard example of the intermingling of Islamic thought and regional characteristic features.
