What to do and see in Dhaka City, Dhaka Division: The Best Points of Interest & Landmarks

July 16, 2021 Stefan Strunk

Densely populated and humming with activity at all hours, Dhaka is a city of contrasts between old and new, rich and poor, industry and folk. From the concrete National Parliament House and ultramodern Bashundhara City, the largest shopping mall in South Asia, to the 17th Century Lalbagh Fort and the open markets along the city's side streets, these contrasts vividly shape the city. Visit the many mosques, temples and museums for a taste of Bengali culture and history.

Dhaka University Central Mosque

Reviewed By Razib_Mahbubul - Dhaka City, Bangladesh

A nice place to pray. Just beside the central library of Dhaka University. The grave of National Poet Kazi Nazrul Islam is beside the mosque. Normally the DU campus is cool and quite. Even you will find more silence in the central mosque.
