Dr Asha Islam Nayeem, a professor in the Department of History at the Dhaka University, has a heart-wrenching story.
I heard a friend say that no matter where she goes shopping, be it on 5th Avenue in New York, in old Delhi, or even at Chatuchak Weekend Market in Bangkok, nothing beats the pleasure she finds shopping in Dhaka’s shopping districts: Chandni Chawk, Hawker’s, and New Market.
The history of Dhaka is as fluid and majestic as the rivers that surround it. Over the centuries, the city’s course has shifted, evolving with each new civilisation that passed through, leaving behind traces of their cultures in its soil.
It all began with a surprise addition to lunch -- long bean mash.
Prejudice, misogyny and hatred seems to increase in the streets of Dhaka.
Bangladesh’s booming ceramic industry is as thriving as our readymade garment (RMG) sector, which I say from my many shopping exploits.
The pulsating energy of Dhaka University campus works as a catalyst to inspire students and shape their conscience.
The early stages of the quota reform movement in Bangladesh saw the use of a subtle yet powerful language of protest: graffiti.

Surrounded by tall coconut and betel nut trees, picturesque ponds, and lagoons -- the green countryside makes Barishal a great city for local tourism.
There is a certain drama in being mystified with all things retro and vintage.
