Sit­u­at­ed on the Fairy Hill, this build­ing com­mands a mag­nif­i­cent bird’s eye view of Chit­tagong city, par­tic­u­lar­ly at night. The Court build­ing was built imme­di­ate­ly after the East India Com­pa­ny con­quered and declared Chit­tagong as a sep­a­rate admin­is­tra­tive area in 1773. The build­ing is huge, over 250,000 square feet (23,000 mA) and has hun­dreds of rooms.
