Sonarang Twin Temples
সোনারং জোড়া মঠ
Two tall 19th-century temple towers rising side by side above a village pond in Tongibari.
The Sonarang jora math are two tall Hindu temples standing next to each other beside a pond in Tongibari upazila. Built in the 19th century, the taller tower rises high above the surrounding trees and is visible from a distance. The weathered brick and plaster give them a dramatic, slightly eerie look. It is a short detour from Munshiganj town and pairs well with the Buddhist sites nearby.
How to get there
CNG from Munshiganj town to Tongibari, then ask for Sonarang.
