Bangladesh: Dhaka – Dhaka Old Town
The core of the Old Dhaka is primarily centered around Shankhari Bazaar and nearby streets – it is a hectic, vibrant, loud, and exciting historic area reflecting the city’s Hindu heritage. It’s a jigsaw of narrow and bustling lanes that are tightly packed with centuries-old havelis (traditional houses) with intricate facades, though many are weathered and dilapidated. The street is super sensory overload with shops selling religious items, sweets, handicrafts, and anything and everything else imaginable.
