This is actually the tomb of Azimunnisa Begum, the daughter of Nawab Murshid-Quli Khan. People believe that she used to eat the hearts of children in order to get cured from a disease. When her husband Suja Khan came to know about it he buried her alive at this place.

This is the tomb of Azimunissa Beghum who was buried alive, and now several stories are rumoured about her eating liver of human babies and all, but overall this is a very nice site to visit, you can find only one gate of the mosque as the other gates have been destroyed in an earthquake in 1897

Azimunissa Begum (also known as Zinatunissa Begum) was daughter of Murshid Quli Khan and wife of the second Nawab of Bengal, Shuja-ud-Din Muhammad Khan. A mosque was built at the place in 1734 by her, but it was partly washed away by a river and only a small part of it remains. The place has well laid out gardens..People believe that she used to eat the hearts of children in order to get cured from a disease. When her husband Suja Khan came to know about it he buried her alive at this place. . .one thing that you can visit there for free of cost and enjoying the sunset for a aesthetic Vibes

This place (mosque) was build by Azimunnisa Begum, daughter of Nawab Murshid Quli Khan. She was so inspired by her father, Nawab Murshid Quli Khan's Katra Masjid, she planned to built a similar mosque herself. Here too, you will find a mosque (small ruins remain), garden and a tomb under the stairs. The similarity ends here as the area is very small compare to Katra Masjid. Unlike Katra masjid, here the tomb lies under the front stairs of the mosque. The story of "Rare illness and daily human liver eating" has very little truth in it. It is a complete hoax and was created by the locals to attract tourists to this place. Since, Azimunnisa has no importance in history and with the mosque completely gone, why would someone visit a little garden! Hence, the story was created. The illness and eating livers for long 2 years is never found in pages of history or any old documents. This place (mosque) was build by Azimunnisa Begum, daughter of Nawab Murshid Quli Khan.
