Vangni Mosque (Bengali: ভাংনী মসজিদ) is a congregational mosque, located in Bhangi Union of Mithapukur Upazila in Rangpur. Situated at the center of Vangi Bazaar, the mosque, covered in white color, is known to locals as 'Vangi Bazaar Mosque' and 'White Mosque.' The construction date is unknown, but the architectural style resembles Mughal styles. Bibi Monirun Nesha Chowdhurani used to take care of the mosque,[1] and later, with the 100-acre land she donated, the 'Waqf Estate Bhangi' was formed to take care of the mosque.[2]
