15 of the Most Beautiful Places in Bangladesh

Bangladesh might be one of the world’s least-visited countries but that certainly doesn’t mean this south Asian nation is lacking in beauty.

The country is brimming with fascinating archaeological sites that reveal tales of ancient Bengal cities, mosques, Hindu temples and Buddhist viharas . From the treasures of Old Dhaka to the vast expanses of tea country, water-bound villages painted with lilies to the Chittagong Hill Tracts and the world’s longest sea beach, there are beautiful natural and urban landscapes around every corner.

Here are 15 of the most beautiful places in Bangladesh to visit – my own personal Bangladesh wish list!

15 of the most beautiful places in Bangladesh

Did I miss your favourite place in my research? Let me know in the comments below.

1. Sonargaon

Beautiful Bengali architecture in the historic city of Sonargaon.

Situated in central Bangladesh, the historic city of Sonargaon is one of the old capitals of Bengal and an important river port.

Famous for khasa , a cotton-based cloth prized for being of the finest quality, Sonargaon was once the centre of muslin production and textile manufacturing. However, it is the hauntingly-beautiful ruins of Panam City (known previously as Panam Nagar) that now attract visitors from around the world.

What was once the textile trading hub of the 19th century is now mostly abandoned after fires razed this thriving city to the ground. It is not known with certainty why Panam was consumed so quickly by the fires (or what started the fires in the first place), but unfortunately only a mere 52 buildings remain. Mughal monuments and fine examples of British colonial architecture retain a certain kind of haunting beauty.

There are rumours that Panam’s last remaining residents fled due to the area being haunted, leaving the old city in a fully-abandoned state. Thus the once-bustling town has been nicknamed by locals as ‘City of the Dead’ or ‘Ghost City’.

A man walks through verdant tea fields at Jaflong in Sylhet, Bangladesh.

Located in the country’s far northeastern corner, Sylhet city is considered one of Bangladesh’s most important spiritual and cultural centres. The stomping ground of folk poets and chai merchants, Sylhet is also associated with verdant tea fields.

The Surma River cuts through the centre of the city, with the iconic 19th-century Ali Amjad Clock overlooking the northern bank. Beyond the river and bridges, beautiful mosques dot the skyline, with the 14th-century saint Hazrat Shah Jalal being one of the most important pilgrimage sites.

The Malnicherra Tea Estate and national parks to the north give the city a perennially green backdrop. Quite incredibly, Sylhet is responsible for producing the largest amount of tea in the country.

3. Old Dhaka

Heritage architecture in Old Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Dhaka, Bangladesh’s capital city, is a thronging metropolis infamous for its traffic jams and swarming sidewalks. Its urban landscape is fascinating: modern masterpieces such as Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban , Bangladesh’s assembly building that was designed by Louis Kahn in 1982, throw the architecture in the oldest part of the city into even sharper contrast.

Old Dhaka is the most beautiful part of the city. It’s home to countless heritage gems including the Mughal-era Lalbagh Fort, the 12th-century Hindu temple Dhakeshwari Mandir, and the pretty pink Ahsan Manzil Museum.

Other key landmarks in Old Dhaka including Northbrook Hall (pictured), Ahsan Manzil, Ruplal House (a dilapidated merchant’s mansion) and the Church of the Holy Resurrection ( an Armenian Apostolic church ) tell the story of a storied metropolis with a far-ranging history and diverse cultural makeup.

4. Satkhira

A mosque on the edge of a lake in Satkhira, Bangladesh.

Located southwest of Bangladesh on the west Bengal and Indian border lies the district of Satkhira. It is a conglomerate of little islands formed by criss-crossing rivers and it is well known for its pottery, bamboo and cane weaving, shrimp, and leather exports.

Satkhira is also famous for its Sundarbans, which house the world’s largest tidal halophytic mangrove forests. One of Sakkhira’s most iconic sites is the Tetulia Jami Mosque in the village of Tetulia. Built in a Mughal style in 1858-59, it features six splendid domes and minarets that reach high above the treeline.

5. Sundarbans National Park

Dusk at Sundarbans National Park, one of the biggest tourist places in Bangladesh.

Part of the Sundarbans on the Ganges Delta and home to one of the largest Bengal tiger reserves, Sundarbans National Park is one of the most naturally productive biological ecosystems on earth. Furthermore, Sundarbans is the largest area of mangrove forest globally and the only one inhabited by tigers.

Inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, Sundarbans, which means ‘beautiful forest’ in the local Bengali dialect, also plays an important role as a storm barrier and shore stabiliser.

There are a variety of things to see and do within the park including wildlife tourism, visiting the Sudhanyakhali Watch Tower, Mangrove Eco Garden, and the Sangha Temple. This beautiful natural wonder in Bangladesh is guaranteed to take your breath away.

6. Sreemangal

Beautiful tea fields and tall trees in Sreemangal, Bangladesh's tea capital.

Home to more than 163 tea plantations and widely known as tea country, Sreemangal is famous for its tea gardens. Tea lovers can take tours of the plantations or even cycle around the gardens.

If you thought that tea was the only thing this beautiful place offers, think again. The Manipuri tribal village is great for a cultural experience and offers the chance to taste the local’s favourite drinks, known as the seven layers of tea.

Nature lovers can take a trip through the Rema Kalenga reserve forest, full of endangered species, or trek through the Lawachara rainforest, one of the last tropical rainforests in Bangladesh. No matter what activity you choose, your Sreemangal visit is sure to hold a place in your heart.

7. Keokradong

Forested Keokradong mountain in Bangladesh.

Known as one of the cloudiest places in Bandarban and a mountaineers’ paradise, Keokradong is the third-highest peak in Bangladesh. It offers two different hiking routes, both of which end up at the same small shelter.

It’s said that the signboard next to the hut was installed by the Bangladesh Army, proclaiming Keokradong to have a height of 967 metres at its summit. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of the remote communities who reside on either side of the mountain.

8. Cox’s Bazar

Three traditional boats at Cox's Bazar, the world's longest beach in Bangladesh.

In the southeastern part of Bangladesh lies the fishing port city of Cox’s Bazar. Best known for sandy shores and seafood, Cox’s Bazar can claim the longest sea beach in the world at 120 kilometres (74.5 miles).

The seemingly never-ending stretch of sand runs into the horizon, dotted with moon-shaped Sampan boats, giving Bangladesh one of its most impressive landscapes. Horse riding on the beach, parasailing, water biking and much more are available.

From visiting the third-largest Buddha in the world at 100 feet long to an overnight stay at the beautiful Mermaid Beach Resort , Cox’s Bazar is an absolute must when visiting Bangladesh.

9. St. Martin’s Island

Waves break against the rocks on St Martin's Island in Bangladesh.

Better known as Narikel Zinzira, which means ‘coconut island’ in Bengali dialect, this is a small island in the southernmost part of Bangladesh. At only 8-square-kilometres, St. Martin’s Island might be small but it’s not insignificant: this is the only coral reef island in Bangladesh.

You can easily make a round trip of the island on foot in a day. Although the island has been without electricity since a devastating hurricane in 1991, the town survives on generators until 11pm.

St. Martin’s comes to life during the day with water sports, beach parties and twilight bonfires. Stay in a resort or camp on the beach and treat yourself to fresh coconuts and crab.

10. Barisal

Barisal waterlilies, a popular tourist destination in Bangladesh.

One of the oldest river ports in the country, Barisal – sometimes called the ‘Venice of Bengal’ – is fast becoming one of the most popular tourist destinations in Bangladesh. Monsoon season between March and November is the best time to visit this corner of the country, where one of the most beautiful natural phenomena in the region takes place.

This is waterlily ( shapla ) season in the village of Satla, when the national flower of Bangladesh grows in abundance. The carpet of pink flowers blooms on the village canal and over 10,000 acres of village wetlands.

Not only are the lilies a beautiful sight, they are also extremely important to local culture and the economy. Around 70% of Satla’s residents work in lily cultivation. The stems are used in many traditional Bengali dishes, and have medicinal uses too.

11. Puthia Temple Complex

Old temples in Puthia, one of the most beautiful places in Bangladesh.

Within the Rajshahi district of Bangladesh lies the culturally-rich town of Puthia. It’s home to the breathtaking Puthia Temple Complex, which holds the largest number of temples in Bangladesh within its boundaries.

Thanks to share this place where i want to visit one of time. Every place is so good and more entertainable. Thanks to say again for help me.

During my recent trip to Bandarban, I had the pleasure of staying at the Labah Tong hill resort and restaurant. In my opinion, it was the best resort in the area, boasting not only breathtaking views but also a friendly and helpful staff. The resort’s interior design was also impressive, adding to the overall ambiance of the place. I would highly recommend a visit to Labah Tong to anyone looking for a refreshing getaway.

Access & Connectivity

Bangladesh built a tech park for 100,000 workers. now it’s a ghost town, the facility was partly funded by the world bank and touted to become the country’s “cyber capital.”.

  • Bangladesh launched its first tech park on the outskirts of Dhaka in 2015. But nearly 10 years later, most of the facility remains unused.
  • Several companies that had committed to setting up offices and factories at the tech park said they have stalled their plans because of bureaucratic red tape or workers' refusal to move to a place lacking basic infrastructure.
  • The government agency that oversees and manages tech parks told Rest of World it’s a “very new concept” and is running “quite well.”

When Bangladesh inaugurated its first technology business park — a sprawling campus for tech companies to set up offices and factories — in 2015, local computer manufacturer DataSoft swiftly seized the opportunity, becoming one of the first occupants.

The Bangabandhu Hi-Tech City — a 355-acre facility — is located in Kaliakair, a small town on the outskirts of capital Dhaka. Built with partial funding from the World Bank, the tech park was touted as Bangladesh’s “ cyber capital ,” which would house 100,000 workers by 2025.

In 2016, DataSoft set up a factory making affordable laptops at the Bangabandhu tech park. The company also planned to bring together a research and development team at the factory for its future projects. 

But nearly a decade later, DataSoft has hired only three full-time workers at the Bangabandhu factory. The plans for a dedicated research and development team never took off, as none of the company’s engineers wanted to move from Dhaka to Kaliakair; the few who made the move did not last long.

“We were in the middle of nowhere,” Golam Kibria Papel, a DataSoft software engineer who moved to Kaliakair with a team of 10 in 2017, told Rest of World . “The nearest bazaar was a 10-minute rickshaw ride away, and one of my colleagues thought the place was haunted.” Papel worked at the Kaliakair facility for just two weeks before seeking a transfer back to the company’s Dhaka office.

Like DataSoft, several other companies that had pledged investments in Bangabandhu Hi-Tech City dropped their plans due to a lack of infrastructure around the campus and bureaucratic red tape. The tech park, which boasts state-of-the-art infrastructure, now lies deserted. Its mostly vacant buildings are decaying from the outside, and covered with cobwebs and grime on the inside. Only 5,000 workers arrive each day to do low-level jobs such as assembly-line work and data entry. 

Four former engineers at Bangabandhu told Rest of World the project failed to take off partly because the government never delivered on its promise of a high-speed train service between Kaliakair and Dhaka.

“Large buildings [are] primary steps of establishing a high-tech park but to make it a success like [Bengaluru in India], you have to build a whole ecosystem,” Russell T. Ahmed, president of the Bangladesh Association of Software and Information Services, told Rest of World . “It has to be a high-tech town.”

Bangladesh’s minister of state for information technology, Zunaid Ahmed Palak, had said the Bangabandhu tech park would create jobs, and lead to an eventual increase in foreign investment. He did not respond to Rest of World ’s requests for comment on the current state of Bangabandhu.

“We have to keep in mind that high-tech parks are still a very new concept in Bangladesh. It will take time,” GSM Jafarullah, managing director of the Bangladesh Hi-Tech Park Authority, a government agency that oversees and manages tech parks across the country, told Rest of World . He said the Bangabandhu facility was running “quite well,” with 87 local and foreign companies manufacturing and assembling mobile phones, ATMs, and other IT devices.

The construction of Bangabandhu was partly financed by a $120 million loan from the World Bank, signed in 2011. Summit Technopolis, the real estate arm of Bangladeshi conglomerate Summit Group, invested $208 million in the project. In 2019, the Bangladesh government allocated another $31 million for setting up an extension of the existing park.

According to a press release published on Summit Technopolis’ website in February 2016, the company planned to occupy two blocks at Bangabandhu, spanning 91 acres of land and generating 70,000 jobs. Though Summit has an office in the tech park, Rest of World was not able to verify if its plans had progressed as the company did not respond to requests for comment.

Rest of World found three companies that had signed agreements with Summit Technopolis between 2019 and 2020 — each promised investments worth millions of dollars into the tech park. None of these agreements have so far materialized, according to the companies.

Mizanur Rahman, general manager of 3S Group — which had agreed to spend $12 million to set up a tech-device manufacturing and assembly facility in Bangabandhu — told Rest of World the project is “yet to be implemented” and was stalled due to a “prolonged dollar crisis.”

Rahman said he has never visited the tech park.

Oryx Biotech, a company that had earmarked an investment of $300 million to set up a 25-acre plasma fractionation plant in Bangabandhu in 2020, told Rest of World construction hasn’t started because “government offices were closed for a long time.”

Nefiz Ahmed, head of business administration at SydneySun, a surveillance business solutions company that set up an assembly plant at Bangabandhu, told Rest of World the tech park “has seen a lot of development in the last five years,” but came with many problems, particularly bureaucratic red tape. “If we get an environmental clearance for our construction, we need to go to the government’s Department of Environment,” Ahmed said.

He also faces the challenge of convincing engineers to commute to the tech park. “[Engineers] usually do brain work and it’s not easy to make them spend three to four hours on the road,” said Ahmed.

Entrepreneurs who did not move to Kaliakair back when the tech park was being lauded and advertised by the government told Rest of World they are relieved. 

In 2013, Syed Almas Kabir, managing director of Metronet Bangladesh, considered moving his operations to Bangabandhu after attending a “promising” government-organized roadshow. “Back then, the internet was a bit shoddy in Dhaka, and the prospect of getting the best high-speed internet alone was a great prospect in Kaliakair,” he said. 

But he’s glad that he decided against moving to the tech park. “Those who shifted there or made investments in the park are not at all happy about it,” Kabir said. “Some of them are even rueing their decisions.”  

“Those who shifted there or made investments in the park are not at all happy about it.”

Bangabandhu Hi-Tech City is one of the only two fully constructed high-tech parks that the Bangladesh government has set up outside Dhaka. Progress at the other park has also been sluggish.

In 2017, the government inaugurated the Sheikh Hasina Software Technology Park — labeled the “ Silicon Valley of Bangladesh ” by state IT minister Palak — in Jashore, a city close to the country’s southern border with India. Around 20,000 people were meant to work at the tech park; today, only 1,600 do.

Later that year, the government organized a grand job fair at the Jashore tech park to hire an IT workforce for 30 companies that had expressed interest in setting up their offices in the 15-story building. According to local media, the drive resulted in zero employment . Rest of World found that the majority of the current workers at the Jashore facility are call center employees for leading Bangladeshi startups, including e-commerce company Chaldal, business process outsourcing company Digicon, and household services marketplace ShebaXYZ.

Chaldal’s engineers “prefer Dhaka’s facilities,” the company’s co-founder, Zia Ashraf, told Rest of World . He said the company’s Jashore office houses only 500 call center workers, mostly hired locally from the area.

“Senior engineers are still very scarce for most of the companies there,” Adnan Imtiaz Halim, CEO and co-founder of ShebaXYZ, told Rest of World . “Highly skilled engineers are still needed for complex tasks like database management. These positions require attracting talent from Dhaka with competitive salaries.”

Despite the difficulty in attracting workers to the tech parks outside Dhaka, Bangladesh has continued to seek investment for the industry’s growth.

In 2021, the World Bank gave Bangladesh another loan — $555 million — for a project geared towards promoting “private investment, job creation, and environmental sustainability in participating economic zones and software technology parks in Bangladesh.” Due to “large infrastructure development, completion timelines vary across components” for tech parks, Hosna Ferdous Sumi, task team leader at the World Bank’s project for private investment and digital entrepreneurship in Bangladesh — set to end in 2025 — told Rest of World. Construction is underway for a software technology park in Dhaka, which would help promote investment and create job opportunities, she said.
