Why visit Dhaka?
Dhaka is a lively South Asian megacity where rivers, rickshaws, and modern towers meet. You will find energetic streets, colourful neighbourhoods, and a creative scene that blends historic architecture with contemporary art and fashion.
What to expect
The city stretches along the Buriganga and other waterways, with Old Dhaka offering narrow lanes, heritage buildings, and bustling riverfronts, while newer districts feature offices, cafés, and lakeside promenades. Expect busy traffic, a fast pace, and warm hospitality in everyday encounters.
Plan your trip
Dhaka works well as both a stand-alone city break and a gateway to wider Bangladesh, including river deltas, tea estates, and coastal areas. With flights via Singapore, you can connect smoothly from Siem Reap and continue onwards through a well-linked regional aviation hub.
