Gol Talab

Gol Talab or Gol Talaab also known as Nawab Bari Pukur, is a small oval-shaped water tank/pond in Islampur, Old Dhaka, Dhaka, Bangladesh, located immediately to the north-west of the Ahsan Manzil Palace and north of the Buriganga River. From the top of the building you can enjoy the beauty of the pond as well as the beauty of the river Buriganga. Besides, the dome of Ahsan Manzil will also catch your eye. Nawab Abdul Bari dug this pond in 1886 AD and for this reason the locals used to call the pond "Nawab Abdul Bari Pond". This pond looks more interesting to see from above.
