Abstract

On a larger scale, Sylhet is known for its natural beauty and topographical features, such as tilas, tea estates, haor, natural fountains, and so on. The natural feature of this Division has a significant impact on history, culture, and living patterns. A divisional museum collects and preserves important historical and cultural elements and information, then exhibits them to the public so that the public is aware of the division's importance. It is also critical to preserve culture and history through public participation. The museum will act as a platform for learning about Sylhet as well as preserving the culture with public participation in this endeavour. The nature of sustainable architecture in this region is represented by form and landscape generated from geographical and ecological studies. A courtyard that serves as a plaza connects the surrounding neighbourhood to the city, and it also includes an existing playground that might be used for community events such as village fests and folk music festivals. There are both permanent and temporary galleries within the museum. The galleries are divided into sections based on the division's history, influential personalities, liberation war, folk music, and cultural aspects.
