A Bangladesh holiday will give you an authentic Southeast Asian experience. A bit off the beaten track, Bangladesh and its capital, Dhaka, have a developing tourism industry – the upside being that you won’t have busloads of tourists photobombing your travel snaps when visiting some of the country’s incredible sites like the Lalbagh Fort. Bangladesh boasts some incredible sites, including the world heritage listed Sompur Mahavihara, an ancient Buddhist monastery in Paharpur. In Dhaka, discover the former residential palace turned National Museum, Ahsan Manzil, and Tara Masjid – the Star Mosque. The highlight of your Bangladesh holiday may well be its untouched beaches. Golden sands, swaying palms and pristine waters beckon. Cox’s Bazar Beach and Patenga Sea Beach in Chittagong are two popular beaches, but there is plenty of coastline and beaches to discover. With a bit of pre-planning (a package holiday is a good idea), a Bangladesh holiday will take you on the road less travelled.
