The Murapara Zamindar Palace is a historic palace located in the Murapara village of Kaliganj upazila in the Gazipur district of Bangladesh. It was built during the British colonial period in the early 1900s and is considered to be one of the finest examples of colonial architecture in Bangladesh.

The palace was the residence of the local zamindars, who were wealthy landlords that held significant power and influence during the British colonial era. The palace features a mix of architectural styles, with influences from both the British colonial style and traditional Bengali architecture. The palace complex covers an area of around 8 acres and includes several buildings, courtyards, gardens, and ponds. The main palace building is a two-story structure with a large central hall and several rooms on each floor. The palace is decorated with intricate wood carvings, stained glass windows, and ornate plasterwork. After the end of the British colonial period, the palace fell into disrepair and was abandoned for several decades. However, in recent years, there have been efforts to restore the palace and preserve it as a historic landmark. Today, the palace is open to visitors and is a popular tourist destination in the Gazipur district.
