Curzon is a historic building located in Dhaka,
the capital of Bangladesh, which is recognized as an antiquity. It is currently
being used as a classroom and examination hall for some of the science departments
of Dhaka University. On February 14, 1904, the foundation stone was laid by
George Curzon, the then Viceroy and Governor General of India. After the
partition of Bengal in 1905, Dhaka became the capital of East Bengal and Assam.
Curzon Hall was then used as the office of the provincial capital. The first
public protest against making Urdu the sole state language was from this
historic Curzon Hall building. After the repeal of the Partition of
Bengal in 1911, Curzon Hall came to be used as the Dhaka College building. After
the establishment of Dhaka University in 1921, this building started to be used
as a science building of Dhaka University.
There is a huge central hall in this huge
building inlaid with artwork. Its outer color is red. In front of the
building is a spacious garden, where a road runs from west to east through the

arch. In front of Curzon Hall a large field and a beautiful flower garden
