Book Synopsis

Discover the architectural gems of Dhaka, the bustling capital of Bangladesh, in the first-ever architectural guide to Dhaka. More than 150 buildings and projects have been handpicked by architect and author Sayed Ahmed to illustrate the more-than-1000-year history of this vibrant city. From Louis Kahn’s world-famous Parliament Building to the modern residential high-rises of its evolving urban culture, Dhaka offers a rich tapestry of architectural heritage stretching far beyond the 200 years of British colonialism. So, get ready to explore the best of Dhaka’s architectural landscapes, such as Gulshan and Banani, which have developed a modern urban character in the past two decades. QR codes and detailed maps will help you navigate the concrete jungle of this metropolis with its population of 22 million. Lavishly illustrated, this guidebook is a must-read for architecture enthusiasts, travellers, and residents alike.
