About Bangladesh
Despite Bangladesh being ranked as one of the most densely populated nations, it offers visitors a wealth of opportunities for outdoor adventure and serenity. You’ll find beaches, forests, thriving tribal communities, archeological sites, and more. Divided
into three geographical regions, each spot offers visitors a number of unique sites and attractions.
Bangladesh, or the People’s Republic of Bangladesh, is located in South Asia, bordered by India and Myanmar. Religion is an important part of the Bengali culture, with 90% of the population practicing Islam. The Bengali Muslims are one of the largest
ethnic groups in the Muslim world. Venture out to the hill tracts and you’ll find Buddhist and Christian Adivasi tribes, while temples in other regions highlight the influence of Hindu culture in Bangladesh.
Expect to fall in love with Bangladesh’s natural beauty and its culture. Traipse along one of the country’s more than 700 rivers, explore UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and learn more about Bangladesh’s religious influences by visiting mosques, temples,
and more.
