Situated in the northeastern zone of the Indian subcontinent, Bangladesh is one of the world’s most populated countries. The riverine nation features a subtropical monsoon climate with a diverse topography including lakes, rivers, plateaus, hillocks and forests. The capital city, Dhaka, is well-known for its vibrant cultural offerings. Lalbagh Fort, Armenian Church, Star Mosque and Ahsan Manzil should not be missed. In the eastern region of the country, Sylhet beckons all nature lovers with forests and lakes. Ratargul is a delightful freshwater swamp forest drawing various bird species to coexist with monkeys and reptiles. Bisnakandi, on the other hand, is surrounded by cloud-covered mountains with several cycling trails. In the northwestern region of Bangladesh, the unspoilt village of Paharpur is famous for its UNESCO World Heritage Site, Somapura Mahavira. Bangladesh is also home to another heritage-listed natural wonder and the largest mangrove forest in the planet, Sundarbans Reserve Forest. Dhaka is one of the best centres in the riverine country for all-inclusive retail therapy.
