Rajar bari. But after excavation ground plan of a Buddhist monastery measuring

north is its special attraction. In its central shrine has revealed six
building and rebuilding phases while in the monastery four.
From one of the terracotta sealing, we came to know this monastery was built by Sri Bhava Deva, the 4th ruler of the early. Deva dynasty during mid 8th century A.D. So during its hey-day it was called Bhava Deva Maha Vihara. The antiquities recovered during excavation are now displayed in the Maynamati Museum.
