Bangladesh is located in Asia and is a very interesting country. The 147,569 km² country is one of the most populous countries in the world with over 142 million inhabitants.

Unfortunately, poverty and natural disasters prevail in this country. Conflicts between rival groups in the south-east of the country still occur, even if wars have long been a thing of the past. The capital of the country is Dhaka , eleven million people live there. The city has an international airport, a university and is also the country's business metropolis.

One of the most interesting places in Bangladesh is Rajshahi , a place that is determined by an old monastery and where various archaeological excavations take place. The extensive mangrove swamps of the Sundarbans, which are absolutely worth seeing, are part of the world natural heritage. The tea plantations in the Sylhet region are also very interesting, as is the Buddhist monastery of Paharpur or the mosque town of Bagerhat - both world heritage sites of UNESCO .
