Lalbagh Fort, also known as Fort Aurangabad, is a historic Mughal fort located in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Construction of the fort began in 1678 under the direction of Prince Muhammad Azam, son of Emperor Aurangzeb, but was never completed. The complex includes several well-preserved structures, such as the Diwan-i-Aam (Hall of Public Audience), the tomb of Pari Bibi (the daughter of the governor Shaista Khan), and the Lalbagh Mosque.
