Located in South Asia to the east of India, Bangladesh is one of the most beautiful countries in the world to visit and is full of amazing travel destinations from the populated city of Bogra to its capital, Dhaka.

We have compiled some of the most amazing places for you to visit should you ever decide to take a trip to this country.

Dhakeshwari Temple

Dhaka plays host to Dhakeshwari Temple, the oldest Hindu Temple in the city that has undergone renovation countless times over the years. The temple, which is a perfect travel destination for people interested in Hinduism remains a wonderful place to experience regardless of your tastes.

Lalbagh Fort

Also in Dhaka, the Lalbagh Fort has remained a sight to see since the 17th century. The incompletely built structure consists of three distinct buildings: the Mosque, the tomb of Pari-Bibi and the Diwan-i-aam Palace, which features a small museum of Mughal artefacts and the royal bath house.

The Sundarban National Park

The Sundarban National Park is the largest mangrove forest in the world, playing host to Bengal tigers and over 260 bird species. Visiting it from Bangladesh gives you a better chance to explore the forests up close.
