Tourist Destination of Bangladesh

Smiling people of Bangladesh: The largest delta in the world with some unique ecological zones, Bangladesh is one of the most

populated countries in the world. With more than 70% of its people living in the countryside,

Bangladesh pulsates with life wherever you go.

Dhaka City: Situated on the banks of the River Buriganga. Dhaka the Capital of Bangladesh first came

into prominence in 1610 AD. Islam Khan Chishti the then Subader & chief –of-Army of Mughal Army in Bengal transferred the capital of Subah Bangla from Rajmahal to Dhaka. Today it is a bustling city of around 16 million people and the 9th biggest of the world. Known for its traffic snarl up, excessive pollution, poor public transportation and housing problems, Dhaka still retains its allure because of the people that live within. A people who love to chat over long sessions of tea and snacks; who love to eat road side food and people who love their cricket and football. Dhaka houses many old and new attractions. Some of the most popular tourist spots of this city includes Shankharia Bazar (Hindu Street), Ahsan Manzil (Pink Palace), Sadarghat (River front), Armenian Church, Star Masque, Dhakeswari Temple, Lalbagh Fort, Rickshaw Art, Curzon Hall (Dhaka University Campus), Kamlapur Buddhist Temple, Bashundhara Shopping Place, National Assembly Building etc.

Lalbagh Fort & Ahsan Manjil: The capital city Dhaka predominantly was a city of the

Mughals. In hundred years of their vigorous rule, successive Government and princely Viceroys who ruled the province, aborted it with many Nobel monuments in the Sharpe of magnificent places, mosques, tombs, fortifications and ‘Katars’ often surrounded with beautifully laid out gardens and pavilions. Among these, few have survived the ravages of time, aggressive tropical climate of the land and vandal hands of man. But the finest specimen of this period is the Aurangabad fort, commonly known as Lalbagh Fort which indeed represents the unfulfilled dream of a Mugal Prince. It also contains within its fortified perimeter a number of splendid monuments and is surrounded by attractive garden. These are; a small 3-domed mosque, the mausoleum of Pari Bibi (the reputed daughter of Nawab Shaista Khan) and the Hammam and Audience Hall of the Governor.

familial legacy of its architect, Louis Kahn. Robert McCarter, author of Louis I. Kahn, described

the National Parliament of Bangladesh as one of the twentieth century's most significant buildings.

Chittagong City: Situated on the banks or the River Karnaphuli, is the number one sea port and

second largest city of Bangladesh. Being a port city from early times, Chittagong attracted people from various regions of the world and acted as a melting pot for people coming from many different areas and belonging to different religions and races. These international contacts left a lasting impact on the language, religion and culture of the place. Today it is also an important place for different industries of the country. Besides being the gateway to some of the most attractive tourist Spots of Bangladesh lke Chittagong Hill Tract (CHT) , Cox’s Bazar , St Martins Island etc…, Chittagong has also got some very unique attractions of its own like Ethnological Museum , World War II Cemetery , Chatteshwari Temple, Fay’s Lake, Patenga Beach, Parir Pahar (court building), Andarkilla etc.

Sunderban mangrove forest: The Shundarban is the largest contiguous mangrove forest in

the world, covering over 10,000 square kilometers of wilderness. This forest is considered as the richest mangrove forest in the world in terms of species diversity and is not only home to critically endangered Royal Bengal Tiger (Pantheratigris) but also other threatened wildlife species.In 1999, the Shundarban came under UNESCO World Heritage Site. Recently a study from Wildlife Conservation Society has identified three areas in the shundarban mangrove forest as dolphin hotspots and the areas have been declared as wildlife sanctuaries for the conservation of threatened freshwater dolphins in 2012.

Page 7: Straight Way Tours & Travels Bangladesh.straightwayrz.com/packages.pdf · albagh Fort & Ahsan Manjil: The capital city Dhaka predominantly was a city of the Mughals. In hundred years

The vegetation of shundarban is largely compresed of mangrove species. Some of the species mostly seen in the forest are; Shundari ( Heritierafomes ) , Keora ( Sonneratiaapetala) , Gewa ( Excoecariaagallocha ), Golpata ( Nypafruticans), Bean (Avicennia spp.) etc. Over 120 species of fish and 270 species of bird have been recorded in the shundarbans. This includes the rare Masked Finfoot (Heliopaispersonata) and the prized Mangrove Pitta (Pitta megarhyncha). About 32 species of mammals have been recorded in the forest which includes a healthy population of threatended Ganges River Dolphin (Platanistagangetica) and lrrawaddy Dolphin (Orcaellabrevirostris).

Page 8: Straight Way Tours & Travels Bangladesh.straightwayrz.com/packages.pdf · albagh Fort & Ahsan Manjil: The capital city Dhaka predominantly was a city of the Mughals. In hundred years

are available while at Khagrachori it is rather limited. There is no doubt that meeting the ethnic people in their villages should be on top of your agenda while visiting this area, a cruise on kaptai Lake in Rangamatior driving by the lakeside road from Rangamati to bandarban or driving to Chimbuk or Nilgiri can be very interesting and exiting too.

HAOR & Lakes: There are two natural lakes (Rainkhiangkinelake and Bagakine Lake) and

one artificial lake (Kaptai Lake). The Kaptai Lake covers an area of about 767 sq km in dry season and about 1,036 sq km in the monsoon.

World Heritage & Archeological Sites for history & culture:

An important site of the Ganges delta, Bangladesh was an integral part of the medival civilizations

that inhabited these regions. Although a country considerably rich in archaeological wealth, both

during the Muslim and pre-Muslim rules, most of it is still unexplored and unknown. The earlier

history of Bangladesh reveals that Buddhism received royal patronage from some important ruling

dynastieslike the great pala rules, the chandras and the Deva kings. Under their support, numerous

well-organized, self-contained monasteries sprang up all over the country. These monasteries once

thriving with life were also greatly appreciated and written about by travelers like Fa-Shien and

Hiuen Tsang. With 2 archeological sites labeld as UNESCO World Heritage sites, Bangladesh still

has much to reveal beneath her deltaic plains.

Paharpur: Paharpur is a small village 5 km west of Jamalganj in the greater Rajshahi district

where the remains of the largest known monastery south of the Himalayas has been excavated.

Page 9: Straight Way Tours & Travels Bangladesh.straightwayrz.com/packages.pdf · albagh Fort & Ahsan Manjil: The capital city Dhaka predominantly was a city of the Mughals. In hundred years

This monastery known as Sompura Mahavira, was built by Dharmapala (781-821 AD) of the palas,

a great dynasty who are majorly responsible for the spread of Buddhism. This 7th century

archaeological finding was part of a group of 5 monasteries that all worked towards spreading

Buddhism; Vikramashila, Nalanda, Somapura Mahavihara, Odantapura and Jaggadala. The five

monasteries formed a network, where famous scholars of that time like Atish Dipankar would

come to teach and reside. Paharpur remained active well until 12th century AD.

Mahasthangarh: Mahastangarh is the ancient city of Pundravardan that is known to have

been inhabited since the Mauryans (3rd century BC) up until the 18th century AD. This oblong

plateau is enclosed by walls and acted as a fortified city, This obolong plateau is enclosed by walls

and acted as a fortified city; bordered by the river karatoya. Various isolated mounds spread around

the area giving a picture of an ancient and well established civilization on the Bogra- rangpur

highway. Radio carbon dating as well as the discovery of some stone inscriptions written in Brahmi

script has established the fact that this region was inhabited since 3rd century BC. Of the excavated

mounds, Basu Bihara, Totaram Panditer Dhap, Gokul Medh and Govinda Bhita, are some of the

more famous ones. Hiuen Tsang the famous Chinese Buddhist scholar stayed around 640 AD.

Mainamati: An isolated low, dimpled range of hills, dotted with more than 50 ancient

Buddhist settlements of the 8th to 12th century AD known as Mainamoti-Lalmai range extend

principality of a series of the 6th to 13th century dynasties like khadga, Deva and Chandras, who

Page 10: Straight Way Tours & Travels Bangladesh.straightwayrz.com/packages.pdf · albagh Fort & Ahsan Manjil: The capital city Dhaka predominantly was a city of the Mughals. In hundred years

ruled in this region. The main monastery built which may have also been known as kanakastupa

Vihara, according to the great Chinese monk who passed through this region, Hiuen Tsang in 7-

8th century AD, is more popularity known as Salban Vihar.

Turkishadministrative General Ulugh Khan Jahan was in charge of certain precincts. One of which

was Khalifatabad, present day Bagerhat. He built mosques and dug out ponds and worked towards

the development of the area.

The Shaith Gumbuj Masjid (60-domed mosque) is a misnomer as I is roofed over with 77 squat

domes; including 7 chauchala or four-sided pitched Bengali domes in the middle row. Six feet

thick, slightly tapering walls which are how and round, almost detached corner towers, resembling

the bastions of a fortress, each capped by small rounded cupolas recall the Tughlaq architecture of

Delhi. The general appearance of this noble monument with its stark simplicity but massive

character reflects the strength and simplicity of the builder.

Bangladesh is the Kantanagar temple (Kantaje’s Temple) in Birgonj near Dinajpur. It was built in

1752 by Maharaja Pran Nath of Dinajpur. The temple, a 52 square feet, three storied edifice, rests

A famous Buddhist monastery with many relics including a 13 feet high image of the Buddha in bronze can also be found here.

Kuakata: Literally meaning a dug well, this beach derived such a name when the Rakhaine

community in the early 18th century relocated here after being driven out of the Cox’s Bazar area by the Mughals and made this part of the Shundarbans habitable. Running at a stretch of about 30km, dotted with religious centers of both Islamic and Buddhist traditions, the kuakata beach is visited by many Hindu pilgrims throughout the year.
