Must-sees

What to do there

1

Boat safari in the Sundarbans (Bengal tigers)

The world's largest mangrove forest, a UNESCO site and refuge of the royal Bengal tiger. Two- to three-day cruises to spot crocodiles, deer, birds and, with luck, the tiger.

2

Cox's Bazar, the world's longest sandy beach

120 km of unbroken beach along the Bay of Bengal. Swimming, sunsets, the fish market and trips to nearby islands.

3

Explore Old Dhaka

A chaotic, captivating historic heart: Lalbagh Fort, the pink Ahsan Manzil palace, mosques, spice bazaars and rickshaw rides through the alleys.

4

The tea gardens of Srimangal

The tea capital: emerald-green hills, plantations as far as the eye can see and the famous seven-layer tea. Hike in Lawachara National Park.

5

Cruise the rivers by traditional boat

Bangladesh is a land of water: take a ferry or 'rocket steamer' on the delta's rivers to see river life and floating villages.

6

Taste the whirlwind of street food

From fuchka to biryani and street chai, street food is an experience in itself, flavorful and incredibly cheap (under USD 1 per dish).
