Homaira and Taimur at it again—this time they’re expanding their tours to include other destinations in Old Dhaka, starting with a walk on 16 December to the historic boro and choto Katras (caravansarai), some of Old Dhaka’s ancient mosques, the Armenian Church, and then the Lalbagh Fort.

Previously, they have featured tours of Shakhari Bazar (also known as Hindu Street) and the Sutrapur/Farashganj areas, where there are a number of old and decaying buildings that still somehow manage to demonstrate the majesty of Dhaka’s former glory.

Contact Taimur and Homaira directly for more info, and to get on their mailing list to be notified of future walks exploring Old Dhaka.
