- Description: The dilapidated Bara Katra, an architectural relic of Dhaka city, is situated to the south of Chawk Bazar, close to the bank of the Buriganga river. Katra possibly originated from the Arabic word katrar or katara, means a building having arches. Also known as a 'Sarai' in Arabic and Persian literature, this type of buildings were used as shelter or resting place for the passersby on their way from one place to another. The two Katras built at Dhaka by the Mughals deserve special mention- the Bara Katra and the Chhota Katra. These two are among the important architectures of the Mughals at Dhaka. Bangladesh. August 16, 2008.
