Welcome to Bangladesh - the country of contrasts between rich and poor, old and new, industry and the folk. Bangladesh is located in the east of India on the Bay of Bengal.
Capital
The capital city of Bangladesh is Dhaka, which is also their
central area for trade and culture. During the 17th century, it was also the
Mughal capital of Bengal. One can still see many palaces and mosques from that
era in the city.
Dhaka is a thriving, colorful, and dense metropolis of some
18 million people, making it one of the most frenetic places on Earth.
Palaces and Modern Buildings
The city has many old as well as modern buildings. The Ashan Manzil, of the "Pink Palace," which lies on the banks of Buriganga River, is the British-era building where the Nawab of Dhaka once lived and ruled from. The Banga Bhaban is another British India era palace, which is currently the official residence of the President in the city. The Lalbagh Fort, on the other hand, is another 17th century fort built in the city by Prince Mohammad Azam, the son of Mughal emperor Aurangazeb.
Shopping
Dhaka also has one of the biggest shopping malls in the
world. The Bashundhara City and Jamuna Future Park are the most popular ones.
The city also has numerous mid-size malls in every neighborhood. If you go for
shopping in the markets and street bazaars, make sure to bargain. To get a feel
of what things should cost in the local markets, check the prices in the
western-style shops and then deduct 10%.
Transport
The best way to get around these palaces and shopping
centers is by hiring a cycle rickshaw, auto-rickshaw, or a taxi.
Cycle rickshaws are the most popular form of transport,
which is good for short distances. Auto-rickshaw are easily found and have
meters on them, which the drivers use often. For long distances, auto-rickshaws
are the cheapest form of transport. Taxis, on the other hand, are rather
difficult to hire from the streets, so you will have to book one.
Hotels in Dhaka (Sleep)
If you were visiting in Dhaka, it is important to carefully
plan accordingly. Unlike Nepal and India, there is very little tourist
attractions, which makes it difficult to find a good hotels in Dhaka. Some
places put up a "Hotel" boards outside but it could be only a place
to eat, while most of the cheap hotels, especially around the Old city, are
only for residents, meaning no rooms for foreigners.
