I have been to two other countries and I’m not sure if it’s all because of the novelty of travelling, but I really enjoyed my destinations. For the most part, I usually travel alone (since I do not know anyone from the area) so I ride public transportation. With those, I get to see the country the way a local would, but I’m pretty sure I appreciate and love the country more than they would.

Well, those two countries I have been are in the same continent as to where I live in. So, as I speak of this, probably since I have started exploring my homeland continent, I guess I would want to visit Bangladesh too.

Known for combining their old and new culture, Bangladesh is an exciting place where you can study about heritage and culture. Well, if you are going to visit the country, like I would, hopefully in the near future, here’s a taste of what’s in store for tourists in the country.

Bangladesh is a country rich in culture that is completely diverse, making it really fun to be there. Imagine a song that is just a lyric-based one and with only a few musical accompaniments, wouldn’t that be weird, but in Bangladesh it’s what their ears want to hear. They have a whole different culture and tradition that once entered would totally be like entering a new world.

So what exactly is the best way to start out touring a whole new different and hopefully whacky place? Of course it is through the kitchen!

Bangladesh is a land known for its delicious food. If you are in Dhaka, you can try Sajna for local and other cuisines. As most Asian countries, Bangladesh’s staple food is boiled rice. They also use mustard and soybean oils as cooking medium. Anyway, perhaps before you leave a restaurant in this foreign land, you should try the Bengali curry, pulaos and the sweets this country has to offer.

After a long hour of practically stuffing yourself with authentic Bangladeshi food (which a lot of people mistake to be the same as Indian food) you can then start burning off the extra calories you just accumulated. If you are interested with treasures, natural treasures that is, then Bangladesh’s capital, Dhaka would be the perfect place for you. Not only will you see natural wonders here, you would also see the wonderful Hindu temples and churches around it.

But if you are looking for a place where there would be a lot of people and a place where you could have a little swim, then Cox’s Bazaar would be a wonderful place. This beach is famous for being the longest unbroken beach slope in the world.

However, not everyone who wants to be close to nature wants a place where there are a lot of people. At Khulna, you will find the largest forests in the world. It’s typically quiet since it is a forest.

If you were looking for something exotic, then Sylhet is the place you’re looking for. Different varieties of flora and fauna, several tea plantations and tropical forests are what you would find in this region of Bangladesh.

On June 4, 1996 the VSAT base data circuit was commissioned for the first time in the country. Upon VSAT commissioning, internet connectivity was established & its services were made available to the public. After internet was launched, the June 1996 National polls results were made available to the netizens of the world using World Wide Web. This was the first ever usage event of its kind in Bangladesh. The effort was appreciated in many corners especially among the Bangladeshis living abroad. After the introduction of Internet, the use of email increased exponentially owing to point to point direct transmission. Prior to it dialup links were used to communicate to an overseas e-mail server using international phone calls. The uploading & downloading of mails took place using UUCP (Unix-to-Unix copy).

The introduction of Internet did not instantly create a market. At the end of year, there were only two ISPs in the country and the number of users was close to one thousand only. The year 1997 recorded a tremendous growth. The total number of ISPs was more than a dozen and the clientele growth was ten times higher than that of the previous year. Afterward, a few new ISPs started their venture recording a proportionate growth in number of users. However, more liberal Government policies followed in the subsequent years which led to a rapid expansion of this industry, eventually resulting in over 180 registered ISP’s by 2005.

In 2006 Bangladesh got connected to the SEA-ME-WE 4 Submarine cable. After that, many ISPs found the opportunity to connect the submarine cable via Bangladesh Telegraph and Telephone Board (Now BTCL). This is the time when number of internet users increased by quite a big margin as bandwidth quality and price became affordable to general individuals. Over the years BTCL reduced the bandwidth price at regular intervals which attract more and more users towards the internet cloud.

The country also has a nice sub-tropical climate, which people from around the world love. Bangladesh is a very attractive country and working here, and to have the opportunity to work in this Asian country is truly a privilege for many.

Bangladesh is also colorful for their well-preserved culture, which is something new for foreigners coming from the eastern countries. But even so, it only takes a little time getting use to with country’s culture. After a just few days exploring the country will give one the idea of how to live like Bangladeshis.

Feedbacks from the expats living in Bangladesh are always positive. Mostly all of them love the country so much that they don’t even feel like working, but like tourists visiting the country. There are many foreign expats ho have even chosen to never leave Bangladesh for good. Expats brought their family along with them and got their permanent homes in the country.

Children too, adore the country very much. Expats having their children moved to the country never had a hard time liking Bangladesh. The Bangladeshis are really friendly people and quiet cultured, so they are never rude to their foreign visitors, but they love to entertain them. Bangladeshi children are exceptionally pleasant too. They are always brought up to be polite and courteous, which mirrors a true Bangladeshi manner.

Expats also will not only enjoy the country itself, but also the different customary celebrations of Bangladesh and most of all, the delicious Bangladeshi cuisine. The country is full of amazing things that people of any age and from any country would definitely relish.

There are already several expats living in Bangladesh. Most of them are just working here contractually, and there are others who already brought their families along with them and now living happily in the bright and colorful society of today’s world.

Making cheap calls to Bangladesh and other countries is quite simple. There are many companies that now offer a service for placing calls either via a dialled access number or via the internet with Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).

With the first option, you simply register your phone number, from either a traditional land line phone or a cell phone, and then dial an access number in order to receive your discounted rates. With the second option, you use your computer with appropriate software to route telephone calls over the internet. This can be accomplished either via communicating directly on your PC, or with a telephone you attach to your CPU with a small piece of hardware.

Are you someone who might benefit from such a calling service? Consider the types of customers who are currently enjoying deeply discounted rates on telephone calls around the world.
Students who are studying internationally will surely want to keep in frequent contact with friends and family back home. Whether it’s asking mum and dad for more money to pay expenses or staying in touch with a boyfriend or girlfriend until their return, students will be able to call home as often as they wish.

Business owners who are wishing to expand their operations will really love cheap call service, especially if it includes the ability to gain additional phone numbers that are local to their specific countries. This is a great way to save a lot of money on bills whilst growing a customer base around the world.

Overseas workers are another type of customer who enjoys an account with a company offering cheap international phone rates. When you are going to be away from home for any length of time, it is always a comfort to know that you can simply pick up the phone – or dial via the computer – and reach your loved ones quickly and cheaply. Avoid being homesick whilst you are away from familiar surroundings.

If you have need to make cheap calls to Bangladesh or nearly any other country in the world, consider contracting with a company that offers these services at a fantastically low rate. VoIP or access calling allows you to stay in touch and quit worrying about the cost.

In the early 1600s the British East India Company built a trading post in Gujarat. The Company gained control of the area in 1757. Robert Clive, one of the employees of the British East India Company, eventually became the governor of Bengal. The East India Company ruled the area for the next 100 years. However, the British Crown took over the area in the Sepoy Mutiny, a rebellion that occurred in 1857. The country was ruled by Britain under a viceroy until the 1900s. Bengal was divided along religious lines in 1947. The eastern part of the area became East Bengal and part of Pakistan. The western area became part of India. Britain no longer controlled the country.

East Bengal, which later was renamed East Pakistan, never functioned well as a part of Pakistan. The people were not happy with being controlled by the Pakistani upper class. The Bengali-speaking population of the area signed a petition for autonomy in the 1960s, but the Pakistani government ignored it. Tensions mounted, until a huge cyclone destroyed the coast of the area in 1970. When the Pakistani government did not respond well, the people rebelled. After a long, bloody revolution, East Bengali won its independence and chose the name Bangladesh.

Sheikh Mujib was the first leader of the country. He was assassinated in 1975 after establishing socialist rule in the country. The three months after his assassination were bloody and confusing, but soon General Ziaur Rahman took power and established a multi-party government. He was also assassinated in 1981. He was followed by Hossain Mohammad Ershad, who ruled for eight years. After his reign, the current parliamentary democratic republic was established.

Bangladesh occupies part of the north eastern corner of the Indian subcontinent. It is surrounded by India apart from a short boarder with Myanmar and its 580 kilometre coastline. Most of the coastline is not continuous but broken up by the channels of delta. There are many rivers which flow through the delta and end up at the Bay of Bengal in the Indian Ocean. These rivers are the Ganges, Brahmaputra, Meghna etc. The Ganges and the Brahmaputra start in the Himalaya Mountains. In Bangladesh the Ganges is known as the Padma and the Brahmaputra becomes the Jamuna. These rivers drain about 2500000 sq kilometres of land. The land of Bangladesh is very flat and low. The highest point is the hills in the north east and southeast. About 15 percents of land is covered with forests. More than 75 percent of Bangladesh is less than 10 meters above sea level. Bangladesh is the largest delta in the world. The area of Bangladesh is 55126Sq Miles.

In Bangladesh about 35 percent adults are literate. Poor families cannot afford to let their children go to school so instead they work. Although primary schools are free, only about 80 percent of eligible pupils attend them. Only 25 percent of them will complete five years of basic education.

After having completed basic or primary education pupils start class 6 at high school and get their Secondary School Certificate after they have studied another 4 years.

Subjects include English, Bengali, General Maths, Additional Math, optional, Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Home Economics, Religious studies. Students need to study for two more years to get Higher Secondary Certificate which are the equivalent of A levels. In higher education a student must complete 2 years for ordinary graduation and 3 years for an Honours degree. Ordinary graduates need two more years for a Masters whilst an Honours graduate need only study for one more year.

Bangladesh is hot and humid during summer and cool in winter. During the monsoonal season, heavy rains take place in Bangladesh and sometimes cause the high-flood. The rains mainly come during the monsoon covering the months of June to September, and little in winter from the month of November to February. The Weather in Bangladesh is characterized by reasonably high temperature for eight months in the year with the maximum temperature in summer ranging between 30 C to 38 C, whereas the minimum temperature remains 9 C during winter.

Dhaka formerly known as Dacca is  city of the people’s republic of Bangladesh. The history of Dhaka goes back to the 7th century AD to Buddhist times, when it belonged to the ancient kingdom of Kamarupa; after this, it passed into the hands of the Hindu Sena rulers (9th century AD), Turkish, Afghan and Mughal governors, until the British East India Company took control in 1765. The British built latest educational institutions and public works, a modern system for supply of water in the year 1874 and introduced electricity in 1878. After Bengal’s partition in the year 1905 and the second partition again in the year 1946, Dhaka was made the capital city of East Bengal. On 15th of August, in the year 1947, the state merged into the newly fomed Pakistan.

However, the ethnic Bengali populace felt discriminated against by the central government, leading to public anger, and they declared Bangladesh as an independent state in March, 1971. In their turn, the Pakistan Army launched a counter operation, arresting and killing thousands of Bengali students, intellectuals and ordinary people. Finally the Indian Army marched into Bangladesh in December, 1971 and captured Dhaka, leading to the creation of a new, independent state of Bangladesh. The name of the city is believed to be derived from the temple dedicated to the Goddess Dhakeshwari, built by Raja Ballal Sena in the 12th century.

Dhaka, a city replete with history, lies on the banks of the Buriganga River. The old parts of the city lie to the south of the city centre, and this is where most of the tourist attractions are found. The old European area lies to the north of Dhaka’s old town; the Presidential mansion, the National Museum and Dhaka’s business district and diplomatic regions are located to the north-east of this part of the city. If you take a taxi ride into the suburbs you can visit the Dhaka Zoo and the Botanical Gardens.

Dhaka was famous from time immemorial for its fine muslin. Now, pink pearls and its rich variety of traditional handicrafts take pride of place. Shoppers will also find gold and silver products at amazingly low prices. New Market, Elephant Road and Dhanmondi are the best areas for shopping. Dhaka is not lacking in famous monuments from the Mughal era and these are a must visit. Lalbagh Fort was built in 1678 by the Mughal governor Nawab Shaista Khan. It contains a mosque, tomb, the Hall for Audience and the hammam. Ahsan Manzil Palace Museum is the former home of the Nawab of Dhaka; it has 23 galleries displaying paintings, furniture and articles of household use. Star Mosque is a beautiful, 200 year old mosque, famous for the thousands of stars which twinkle on its surface. You can see a large collection of antiques and sculptors from the Hindu, Buddhist and Muslim periods in the National Museum.

Five Elements of Bangladesh Weddings:

Unlike Toronto marriage ceremonies, matchmakers known as Ghotoks, who are normally relatives or friends of both the couple’s families, arrange Bangladesh traditional weddings. These matchmakers facilitate any settlements between the couple. This is where the introduction of the couple to each other is facilitated. By far the most populous in Bangladeshi population who have Bangladesh traditional weddings are the Bengalis tribe. The event takes place in five essential elements; firstly is the groom and bride’s Mehendi Shondha, Gaye Holud for the bride, Gaye Holud for the groom, the Beeya, and finally the Bou Bhaat. Held during separate days, they are a mixture of formal and informal ceremonies. Increasingly gaining popularity, the initial ceremony is informal, where the bride is presented by the groom with a ring, which marks their engagement.

Ceremonies before the Wedding :

During the Mehendi Shondha, the bridal party applies henna on each other, including the bride. This is done for the groom’s family, when in the Gaye Holud; the groom’s family proceeds in a march to the home of the bride’s family. Just like Toronto weddings, the groom is not present in this procession. This convoy traditionally revolves around the bride’s younger friends and relatives, who are all wearing matching traditional outfits that are mostly orange. The henna applied to the bride is in intricate and abstract designs, upon her feet and hands. The bride sits on a dais, where all involved feed her with sweets, gradually.

Following the events of Gaye Holud, the actual Bangladesh traditional weddings or Beeye, is held. The arrangement of this marriage ceremony is conducted by the family of the bride. On the day of the Bangladesh traditional weddings, the younger bridal family members barricade the venue’s entrance and demand an admission offering from the groom for letting him into the venue, following which he proceeds to sit separately from the bride. This is so that a government approved wedding authorizer, known as a Kazi, accompanied by witnesses and the parents of the bride and groom ask the groom and bride respectively for their consents to the wedding. Just like Toronto weddings, they also hold reception parties. The reception called Bou Bhaat, is facilitated by the family of the groom as a return gesture for the wedding ceremony, and features a more relaxed atmosphere, and at which different ceremonial attire is worn.

Traditional Wedding Feasts:

Feasts for the guests are essential features of Bangladesh traditional weddings. Just like Toronto weddings, guests bring with them gifts for the couple. Depending on the resources of the parents of the couple, guests may range from fifty to five thousand, with wedding menus featuring sweets such as payesh and zarda, salads, spiced yoghurt’s burhani, biryani made of chicken and mutton, mutton rezala, roast chicken, and beef kebab. The Hindu ceremonies consist of menus including sweetened yoghurt, uncastrated goat meat’s curry, fish curry, vegetable dishes, and plain rice. In some areas such as Chittagong, these feasts can last for days. Unlike Toronto ceremonies, bride price, or dowry is payable in both Muslim and Hindu communities, and a dearth of good brides and grooms determine which family should pay dowry and which side should receive it, and how much it should be.

The traditional music of Bangladesh is very much the same as that of the Indian sub-continent. The music in Bangladesh can be divided into three main categories: classical, modern and folk. Both vocal and instrumental classical music is enjoyed in Bangladesh. Ustad Ayet Ali Khan and Ustad Alauddin are two famous classical instrumental players that are internationally known. Modern music is becoming more popular and is practiced widely. Contemporary, pop songs and bands are also enjoying more widespread fame, but are mainly popular in the regions of Dhaka City.

Tribal dances are very popular among the Bangalees. The countryside girls are in the habit of dancing to popular folk music. Their dances require no regulations as such, just a small amount of courage and a big amount of rhythm. Popular songs like Shari and Jari are presented with the accompanying dance of both male and female performers.

Drama and theatre is an old tradition that is very popular in Bangladesh. More than a dozen theater groups in Dhaka City have been regularly staging locally written plays for hundreds of years. Many have also started adopted some plays from European writers. Baily Road in Dhaka is known as “Natak Para” and this is one location where drama shows are regularly held. Many shows are also held at the Dhaka University. While Bangladesh might not be everyone’s cup of tea, it certainly makes for unforgettable travel. The country might not be heavily developed in terms of hotels, shops and conveniences, but it still has lots to offer. Most of the attractions here have to do with the incredible natural wealth of the country.
