“A people without the knowledge of their past history,origin and culture is like a tree without roots”.
In his Statement,“Marcus Mosiah Garvey” is tring to understand us how important to conserve our glorious history of past and save our National Heritage because it’s our own Identity .If we don’t conserve it,our New Generation will lost their Past history and own culture.
The Architecture of Bangladesh is standing as the root of Bangladesh containing it’s own Culture, religion and history. It has envolved over centuries and assimitated influences from social, religious and exotic community. The Architecture of Bangladesh bears a remarkable impact on the life style,tradition and cultural life of Bangladeshi. Bangladesh has many Architectural relics and monuments dating back thousands of year.But it’s a matter of sorrow that we aren’t aware of our heritage,history,importance of Archrological site and how to conserve it.Because there aren’t sufficient platform where we can acquire the fundamental knowledge about it.
Comilla city under Chittagong division is one of the oldest city of Bangladesh with an area of 3085.17 sq km bearing a lot of Heritage sites such as Ananda Vihara, Bhoja Vihara, Itkhola Temple, Latikot Mura, Rupban Mura, Shalbon Vihara etc. But there haven’t any visitor center as a Physical Location that can provides The Historical information to the visitors who will come to visit these area locally. That’s why my project – “MYNAMATI VISITOR CENTER” is planned as a Platform where they can know all of this.
This project is to create a social and historical awareness among the people of Comilla and all the people of this country should know about our all heritage sites and also know our culture. Comilla is famous for many cultural activities as this district was a part of Tripura of India. It was culturally rich before ages but no one basically care about those richness ,No one doesn't wants to know about the culture, about the heritage. So it is a path of knowing the cultural along with the Visitor Center. People should know about the culture and heritage sites together.
A multipurpose hall is proposed for this project so that the local society can use this for the social and cultural purpose. A dormitory for national and international tourists is provided so that they can come and stay here for a certain time and they can research about the archaeological sites or they can visit those heritage sites. A gallery space is also designed to introduce us with The Archaeological articles of this places.
The Doorway was determined by the design of a “VISITOR CENTER” based on The connection of people with new environmenr/society/culture,Openness and well circulation,Transportation facilities,Informative Display,Proper Learning and Reading Facilities,Proper Health Facilities,Well Accommodation for Visitors Refreshment,Local people development,Research Facilities,Local Product/Market Development,well Security and Providing Maximum information to the local and international tourists.
In fine We can say - The overall objective of this project is to conserve our heritage and the historical relics, introduce our culture, heritage , architecture to the world tourist,opening up a recognized field of investment for resources,The purpose of this project is to enhance government earning greatly, aiding communities around the sites to market their products,introduce multi-dimensional tourism by exploring new places with specific such as religion, nature and archaeology that can play an important role for the development of Tourism and economy of our country.
