Curzon Hall is one of Dhaka’s most beautiful buildings — a graceful red-brick blend of Mughal and European architecture, begun in 1904 as a town hall and now home to the University of Dhaka’s science faculty. Its arched verandahs and gardens draw photographers all year round, and it played a symbolic role in the 1952 Language Movement.
