Curzon Hall é um marcante marco de tijolos do início do século 20 localizado em Shahbagh, dentro do campus da Universidade de Dhaka. Originalmente encomendado como prefeitura, sua pedra fundação foi colocada por Lord Curzon em 1904 e o edifício foi concluído em 1908. Desde 1921, a sala abriga a Faculdade de Ciências. Sua arquitetura indo-sarcênica apresenta uma graciosa fusão de estilos Mughal e europeu - com cúpulas, calçados e arcos esculpidos, torres ornamentadas, poços profundos e varandas encantadoras. Além de seu papel acadêmico, Curzon Hall desempenhou um papel fundamental na história do Bangladesh: foi um centro de protesto durante o Movimento da Língua Bengal (1948-1956), onde os estudantes condenaram as tentativas de impor o Urdu como a única língua estatal. Cercado por gramados verdejantes, um jardim botânico, campos de jogos e um lago histórico, Curzon Hall oferece um ambiente tranquilo e pitoresco no meio do aconchegante campus.
Shaheed Minar (Monumento dos Mártires) em Dhaka é um poderoso símbolo nacional que homenageia aqueles que perderam suas vidas durante o Movimento da Língua Bengali em fevereiro de 1952. Nesses dias, estudantes e ativistas da Universidade de Dhaka e da Faculdade de Medicina de Dhaka foram baleados enquanto pediram pacificamente que o bengali fosse reconhecido como língua oficial. O monumento atual, de cerca de 14 metros de altura, apresenta colunas de mármore elevadas dispostas em meio círculo - simbolizando uma mãe de luto com seus filhos caídos - com um disco solar vermelho impressionante atrás. Escadas brancas e estantes dão-lhe uma aparência solene, quase divina, enquanto as linhas de poesia de letras de ferro adornam as cercas. Dentro, pisos de mármore e um grande painel de mural no porão narram a história do movimento.
Lalbagh Fort é um complexo de forte Mughal do século 17 incompleto que fica diante do rio Buriganga na parte sudoeste de Dhaka, Bangladesh. A construção foi iniciada em 1678 dC por Mughal Subahdar Muhammad Azam Shah, que era filho do imperador Aurangzeb e, mais tarde, do próprio imperador. Wikipédia * Atenção: Está fechado aos domingos

Very fun and exciting tour. Trust me, you cannot do this on your own! We visited all the spots listed in the itinerary and then some! Shahadat knows so much about the history of each place, knows how to he you in and knows how to take a good photo.

We really only visited two of the sights; the other ones we saw only from the outside and after it got dark. I think it's probably impossible to do this tour in half a day and the guide, although well intentioned, couldn't manage the time adequately in a city with Dhaka's traffic.
Thank you very much for your honest feedback. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience. We sincerely regret that the tour did not fully meet your expectations. You are absolutely right that Dhaka’s traffic can be highly unpredictable sometimes, and managing multiple sites within a half-day schedule can sometimes be challenging. That said, we understand your disappointment in not being able to explore all locations properly in daylight. Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a smoother and more fulfilling experience next time.
I booked the tour last minutes, however, everything was organized and planned well, on time pick up，my guide Shahadat is accommodating and explain the places well. I’ve learned the history of Bangladesh along this tour, would recommend if you have one day to spare in Dhaka.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that, even with a last-minute booking, everything was well organized and the pickup was on time. It’s great to know that my explanations helped you learn more about the history of Bangladesh and made the most of your day in Dhaka. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another memorable experience!
Our tour was initially postponed by one hour and suddenly canceled 15 minutes before the start. We checked with our hotel concierge, and some places on the list were closed and shouldn’t be even proposed. This was a huge disappointment.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and disappointment you experienced. Due to receiving the booking at the last moment, we faced scheduling challenges. We did our best to operate the tour; however, it was canceled for unavoidable reasons. As previously discussed, we have issued a full refund.
