==History== The brothel was set up in 1888 during British rule. At the time, Narayanganj was one of the biggest duty-free ports in Asia. The British who settled there coerced women from villages to provide entertainment for them. Later these women were discarded and socially boycotted. The women gathered in Tanbazar and the brothel became established.
