Star Mosque is located at Armanitola in Old dhaka, about 350m
north of the Armenian Church. It is one of the most famous tourist attractions
of Old Dhaka. The mosque, both inside and outside, is decorated with mosaic.
The outer wall between the doors are decorated with the motif of Mount Fuji on
glazed tiles and a crescent-and-star design decorates the upper part of the
facade. Hundreds of blue stars have been created on the domes of white marble.
All over the mosque the motif of stars dominate the decoration and so the
mosque is called the Star Mosque (Tara Masjid in Bengali).
