A local nobleman, Mirza Ghulam Pir (d. 1860), originally built the mosque and hence it was known as Mirza Ghulam Pir Mosque. Later, in 1926, a businessman named Ali Jan Bepari renovated the mosque, adding stars and other motifs. The mosque then got its present name Tara (also Sitara) Masjid.

If you're looking for a half-day tour, I highly recommend booking with them. They are accommodating, friendly, and respectful. As a solo female traveler visiting Bangladesh for the first time, I felt safe and well taken care of throughout the tour. My guide showed me around Dhaka while making sure I was comfortable every step of the way. They also helped me reschedule my tour when my original booking was affected by heavy rain, making the process quick and stress-free.

Absolutely incredible. You must request Nazmul because he was the best guide could’ve asked for.

This was my 2nd tour with Bangladesh Explore, and it, again, was outstanding! Riding rickshaws through the streets to the various historical sites was exhilarating! Nazmul was my food tour guide AND my guide for this trip. Both of my experiences were awesome. He is very knowledgeable & continually reminded me that all I have to do is ask or let him know if there is a way to customize the tour to meet my needs. I would highly recommend this company for seeing the best of Dhaka.
I am thrilled to read your feedback and so happy that your second tour with us was just as outstanding as the first! Seeing our guests describe their experience as "exhilarating" truly means the world to us. We take great pride in offering unique and memorable ways to experience Dhaka, and the rickshaw rides are definitely a highlight for many! It's fantastic that Nazmul was able to guide you for both your food tour and this historical trip. He is a valued member of our team, and his knowledge and commitment to customization are exactly what we strive for in our service. I will personally ensure he receives recognition for his excellent work and for making both of your experiences so "awesome." Thank you immensely for your high recommendation. We look forward to welcoming you back for a third—and perhaps even more customized—adventure in Bangladesh!

I did a half-day tour with my guide in Dhaka, and it was absolutely fantastic. He took me to Kawran Bazar, where I got to experience the hustle and energy of the local market, and even showed me how locals take the train — such a unique and eye-opening experience! Throughout the tour, he made sure I felt safe and comfortable at all times. We also visited New Market, where he explained how fabrics and clothes are made and traded. His knowledge of Dhaka’s culture, daily life, and local traditions was truly impressive. I really appreciated how he provided insight into the everyday life of Dhaka residents, not just the tourist spots. He was friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about showing the real side of his city. If you want to understand the authentic Dhaka and have a guide who genuinely cares about your experience, I highly recommend booking with him.
