Sajek

Reviewed By Mdzakaria - Dhaka City, Bangladesh

Sajek is one of the few place in bangladesh ,which is really natural wonder and natural paradise. I recommended all bangladesi for go their, speciall for Dhaka city people. Small hils, river and forest all in one place. Sajek valley is known for its natural environment and is surrounded by mountains, dense forest, and grassland hill tracks. Many small rivers flow through the mountains among which the Kachalong and the Machalong are notable. On the way to Sajek valley, one has to cross the Mayni range and the Mayni river. The road to Sajek has high peaks and falls. I wanna to trip their again in future again.

Beside the Dhaka University, the Shahid Minar is a symbol of pride and honour for the heros given their life for Mother Language. The place is very exciting to encourage all ages and specially for young and youth. The history of 1952, the language movement and later the recognition of 21 Feb as International Mother Language Day all symbolized from this monument. A must... must and must see for anyone

National Parliament House

Reviewed By Kshf_C - Dhaka City, Bangladesh

The National Assembly building complex in Dhaka designed by the American architect Louis Kahn (Kimbell Art Museum, Texas; Art galleries in Yale) from 1963 till his death in 1974 and finally inaugurated in 1983, is widely considered one of the masterpieces of architecture of the 20th century. While from the outside it is very impressive, the real drama unfolds in the interiors, where a 100 feet high space bathed in light from various angles, and animated by ramps, bridges and other elements, wrap around the central chamber which itself is awe-inspiring. There is a visitors section at the Assembly building which conducts guided visits (passports required, no phones, no photos) usually from 10am except weekends, without any prior permission. They can also take visitors to see some of the adjoining buildings. Call in advance to avoid disappointment, for a visit to remember. Very highly recommended.

Liberation War Museum

Reviewed By dmittleman - Palm Beach Gardens, United States

This museum is a monument to Bangladeshi independence and the war fought with Pakistan for freedom. The exterior is under major renovation and you have to slog through mud to get to it. But by all means get there. There are enough English explanatory boards so that you can truly understand the atrocities. The displays, photos, and videos are harrowing but provide true insight into the Bangladeshi struggles for nationhood.
