If you have a spare day in Dhaka, you can visit the Sonargaon Museum. It took our group less than an hour in the bus to get there. Antiquity is amazing itself giving a pleasure to eyes to feel all those old stuffs left to die unused and neglected. A bit of preservation needed.The authorities should pay attention to these things.
