Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, well known as city of fine muslin, mosques and rickshaws has a fairly long history of evolution. Before it rose into prominence as Mughal capital of Bengal in 17th century and urban & commercial centre, it was under the Sultanates from 14 century. It came under British control in 1757. Dhaka with passage of time testify different faces of history. Photographs and digital archives are the most effective ways that can keep visual records of its colourful history.
Good to see the new road layout. Very disappointed to see the footpath. Most of them are occupied by rickshaw van and other stuff. It looks chaotic. Hope they do something about it.Without proper parking facilities and clearing the footpath for the passersby Dhaka will always be chaotic.

Sir, you have taken some fabulous pics of Dhaka. I have always heard that Dhaka is a poor and dirty city, but your pics proves wrong. They are not only beautiful but has a story of its own.
