Dhaka, Bangladesh - City Tour

The city tour included visiting the Dhaka river front (Sadar Ghat), Majestic Pink Palace (Ahsan Manjil), Star mosque, Curzon Hall, Shahid Minar, Lalbag Fort built in 1678 during Mughol Dynasty and the Famous Dhakeshweri Mandir (Hindu Temple). The traffic was horrendous, especially in the old town where the street are narrow and congested with rickshas, people and traffic.  It took us an hour plus to travel five kilometers. On our return we visited the National assembly building, the most distinctive building in Asia and the wonderful architectural accomplishment of famous architect Luis I Kahn of USA.
