Bird's eye View of my Homeland. The pictures appended are the bird’s eye views of landmarks in and around the city of Dhaka where I live now.. Credits for these photographs rest with Major Rumman Mahmud of Bangladesh Army. The photos are really stunning. Here below are some details of each picture for those who are interested to know more! 1.Bird’s eye view of the Bangladesh National Parliament House designed by the famous architect Louis Kahn. The complex is one of the largest legislative complexes in the world, comprising 200 acres. 2. The magnificent aerial view of the 17th century incomplete Mughal fort complex that stands proudly on the bank of the River Buriganga in the southwestern part of Dhaka. It is known as Lalbagh Fort! 3. 4 wind turbines, each producing 225 kW of electricity, built on the dam over the river Muhari, far away from Dhaka. The dam was constructed on the mighty river in 2005. 4. Bird’s eye View of the National Martyrs' Memorial. It is the symbol built in the memory of the velour and the sacrifice of all those who sacrificed their lives in the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971. 5. This aerial view of Mirpur Cantonment, an amazing part of Bangladesh, is also located in this great ancient city of Dhaka. The heart shaped water body refreshes the minds of the residents of this area even from their balcony. 6. Imagine this bird’s eyes view of a small hut near a small pond where a Bangladeshi family lives for peace and tranquility! Many Villagers in this country always craves for such place, surrounded by green, to live peacefully! 7. The first day of Bengali calendar, Pahela Baishakh, will be celebrated here in Dhaka as usual on 14th April. This is a aerial picture of one of the past celebration of the event. It is a country wide celebration! 8. Do you like the mosaic in green? Almost all the paddy fields in Bangladesh would look like this if you view it from far above! 9. Aerial view of one of the largest river ports in the world. It is known as Sadarghat River front of the city of Dhaka. About 200 large and small passenger launches depart and arrive at the terminal every day. 10. Birds eye view of the oldest Dhaka University Students Residential Hall named "Salimullah Muslim Hall". I feel proud that I was an attached student of this knowledge hub that grew old while I was a post graduate student of the University of Dhaka studying Economics in 1957-58.           |
