Step into Panam City (Panam Nagar), an enchanting slice of history frozen in time, located in Sonargaon, the ancient capital of Bengal. 🌿✨ Once a thriving trading hub and seat of wealth during the 15th to 19th centuries, this ghost town of elegance still stands proudly with its ornate colonial-era mansions, narrow cobblestone lanes, and haunting charm. 🏛️📜
Built by wealthy Hindu merchants during the British period, each building tells a story — carved balconies, arched windows, and faded facades whispering tales of prosperity, artistry, and timeless beauty. 🌸 Though weathered by age, Panam City remains one of Bangladesh’s most stunning heritage sites, capturing the spirit of a bygone era. 🇧🇩💫
As you stroll down its single historic street, you’ll feel transported back centuries — where horse carts once rattled, traders bargained, and the air was alive with the hum of commerce and culture. 🌅
