Bangladesh is a diverse country, ranging from the low lands of the Ganges Delta to the heights of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. The country boasts a number of delightful destinations including cities, national parks, beaches, and rural villages. Each destination has its own appeal and thus it’s a good idea to find out more about them in order to decide where your journey in Bangladesh will lead you.
The country of Bangladesh has been divided into six administrative divisions. Located within the Dhaka Division is the capital city of Bangladesh, Dhaka. This fascinating city is filled with history and culture. A colorful, bustling city, Dhaka is home to such attractions as Baitul Mukarram, Dhakeshwari Temple, The University of Dhaka, Ramna Park and more. Known as the “city of mosques and muslin”, you won’t want to miss out on the vibrant city of Dhaka.
The Chittagong Division covers much of southern Bangladesh. Chittagong is the main city in this division and is known as the country’s main seaport. There are many natural attractions in the area that are worth exploring, including the renowned Foy’s Lake.

Most beautiful thing about bangladesh is that, the people are very simple minded.But bad about them is they are very superstitious about relagions which is acting as a big role to demote the country.
