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.

Keeping Bangladesh Afloat- in the eye of foreign lens!
These pics posted in Yahoo were copied. The feature article associated with pictures published in National Geographic, although of tremendous value, was too large for this blog. Thanks for suggestions
Ha! Nice pictures. I've never been there, but it seems like a colourful and interesting country! Would love to visit some day.

These pics are taken from The National Geographic Magazine (May 2011 edition). Would be nice if you have included the entire article.
