Did you know this fact?

Bangladesh’s culture is deeply rooted in its vibrant festivals, one of the most unique being Pahela Baishakh, the Bengali New Year. Celebrated on April 14th, this festival marks the start of the Bengali lunar calendar and is a colorful display of traditional customs. On this day, people don traditional attire, participate in lively street parades, and enjoy festive foods like pitha (rice cakes) and panta bhat (fermented rice). The celebration is also known for its folk music and dance, including the energetic Baul songs performed by local minstrel singers. This day reflects Bangladesh’s rich cultural heritage and community spirit.

About Bangladesh

With a population exceeding 160 million people, Bangladesh is a hidden gem and relatively an unexplored area in South Asia, bordered by India, Myanmar, and the Bay of Bengal. It is a land where the rivers and hundreds of estuaries crisscross the landscape giving birth to a unique riverine culture. Exploring its rich cultural heritage, diverse landscape and stunning natural beauty, offers a unique and memorable travel experience.

With Dhaka taking the centre stage for all political and administrative activities, other cities in the small country of Bangladesh take the onus of travel-oriented exposure to the visitor. For this, the Mahasthangarh Archaeological Site (country’s oldest known city, dating back to 3rd century BCE), Paharpur Archaeological Site (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), the ancient city of Bagerhat (known for its UNESCO-listed mosques from the medieval period), floating markets in Barisal, the tea gardens of Sylhet, Bandarban and Chittagong Hill Tracts (picturesque regions known for their stunning landscapes, diverse indigenous cultures, and rich biodiversity), Cox’s Bazar (the world’s longest natural sandy sea beach)etc. offer wonderful scapes to explore. Use these as base camps to get around, as the infrastructure is better in major towns rather than small villages. Its prime draw lies in the Sundarbans mangrove forest – the largest mangrove forest in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its rich biodiversity. It is home to numerous endangered species including the Royal Bengal Tiger, saltwater crocodiles, and a variety of bird species. Exploring this unique ecosystem is a must for nature enthusiasts.
Bangladeshi cuisine is rich, flavorful, and influenced by a blend of cultural traditions, including Bengali, Mughlai, and tribal culinary practices. It reflects a blend of robust flavors, diverse ingredients, and cultural influences. Sampling local food makes it a delightful exploration for food enthusiasts looking to experience authentic South Asian flavors. Bangladesh hosts several vibrant festivals throughout the year, offering tourists a unique opportunity to experience its cultural richness and traditions. The notable festivals include Pohela Boishakh (Bengali New Year) celebrated on April 14th, Durga Puja (that signifies triumph of good over evil) celebrated usually in the month of October or November, Eid-ul-Fitr (that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting) etc.

The best time to visit Bangladesh for most travelers is during the winter months (November to February) when the weather is most pleasant for sightseeing and outdoor activities. However, spring (March to April) is also a good option for those interested in cultural festivals, exploring wildlife and tea estates. In conclusion, Bangladesh is a country of breath-taking beauty. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or cultural immersion, Bangladesh has it all. Its under-the-radar status makes it an ideal destination for those looking to explore off the beaten path.

Delhi

A city which has been the seat of power of several empires for about a millennium. It has been destroyed and rebuilt many times, and interestingly, a number of its destroyers have also been its rulers. Delhi today is a potpourri of two distinct cultural lineages—Old Delhi and New Delhi. Juxtaposed against the immaculately planned New Delhi created by the British Raj, Old Delhi, which was once the capital of Islamic India, is a labyrinthine network of lanes and by lanes with crumbling havelis and formidable mosques.

Mumbai

A cluster of seven islands that was presented to King Charles II as dowry in 1661, Mumbai today has become the economic capital of the country with thriving markets and business houses.

Although Mumbai mirrors changes brought about by liberalization and modernization, at its core it remains a city steeped in its culture and tradition.

Kolkata

Under the British Raj, Kolkata served as the capital of India until 1911, when perceived geographical drawbacks and apparent political turmoil led to shifting of the capital to New Delhi.

Bangalore

A city that enjoys good weather almost throughout the year. Founded in 1537 by Kempe Gowda I, Bengaluru today has grown much beyond the mud fort and moat built in the 16th century. The city with its sprawling gardens, parks, lakes and perennial flowering trees has rightly earned the sobriquet of “Garden City”.
