Dhaka offers spirit of celebration, heritage and fun
Dhaka is the heart of Bangladesh in every aspect of the word. This 400 year old city has expanded rapidly after the country earned independence in 1971. Many people see it as the center of all commercial, educational and any other activity. But most do not recognize that Dhaka can be one of the most fascinating tourist places in the world. This city has more to offer than it meets the eyes!
To start with, Dhaka is the home of some magnificent structures which carry 400 year old heritage. Dhaka has been the capital of the Bangla region almost throughout the ages. It has been the home of emperors, kings and lords. Sings of those rules are still there in many corners of the city. The city resides more than a thousand mosques and hence it has earned the reputation of being the ‘City of Mosques’. Most of the mosques are quite articulately designed. It would take an interested tourist two days to explore the mosques. The fun and excitement will be unbound.
The old town of Dhaka is a fascinating little area that still carries the 18-19th century traditions. It is a haven for foodies. It offers travelers the best taste of Mughlai and Bangla cuisine. The Lalbagh Fort is situated in Old Dhaka as well. It was built in 17th century by Subadar Muhammad Azam Shah. After more than 300 years, it is still standing strong with all its glory. A little deep into Old Dhaka brings Sadarghat in front of the tourists, the main river port of Dhaka.
Any visitors interested in old sculpture, must see the heritage site in Sonargaon, situated near Dhaka. It used to be the home of the ‘Nababs’ a few hundred years ago. It carries rich cultural symbols of that era. According to the description of famous traveler like Ibn-e-Batuta, Sonargaon used to be a significantly rich city in the past. Currently Sonargaon is indeed a famous tourist spot that has the remains of Panam City, Lok Shilpa Jadughar, Sonakanda Fort and Khasnagar Dighi.
Dhaka is also the home of a lot of beautiful monuments and structures which signify the fighting past of the nation. Central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka University is a tribute to those who died to preserve our mother tongue Bangla. The National Memorial in the outskirts of Dhaka is a tribute to the 3 million people who died to make this country sovereign. The National Museum in Shahbag preserves the historic relics of the nation.
The National Parliament Complex in Dhaka is one of the most beautiful sites in the city. It is the home of the beautiful parliament house designed by the great architect Louis I. Kahn. The parliament house is surrounded by beautiful Crescent Lake and lots of trees. An afternoon or evening here is must for people who want to extract the essence of the capital city.
If the tourists are lucky, they can catch an international cricket match in the wonderfully built Mirpur Sher-e Bangla National Stadium. People of all ages paint their faces and go to the stadium to cheer the Tigers. And if Bangladesh wins, they will be able to witness one of the most spectacular celebratory rallies ever!
There are several luxurious hotels in Dhaka to make your stay comfortable. It is a great place for shopping. You will be able to buy clothes, CD, DVD and electronics in really cheap price. Visiting Dhaka is worth every penny you are willing to spend.
