Major Cities in Bangladesh

Rajshahi:

Rajshahi is one of the six metropolitan cities of Bangladesh. The city is located west-central Bangladesh. It lies just north of the upper Padma River. Rajshahi consists of 4 Thanas, 35 Wards and 175 Mahallahs. There are population of around 475,000 people. Its total area is 37.33 sq mi.

It was selected by the Dutch in the early 18th century as the site of a factory (trading post) and was constituted a municipality under the British in 1876. Now an industrial center, it produces silk, matches, timber, and processed agricultural products. It has several public hospitals, dozens of private hospitals and clinics, the Varendra Research Museum, a sericulture (silk-cultivation) institute, the University of Rajshahi (1953), and Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology (1986).

To the northwest of Rajshahi lies the elevated and undulating Barind region; to the south is the high, well-drained Padma Valley; and a swampy depression drains the land in the immediate vicinity of the city. Among the chief crops in the area are rice, wheat, jute, and sugarcane. The region’s sericulture accounts for almost the entire silk output of Bangladesh. Cottage industries include weaving, metalworking and woodworking, and pottery. The region is believed to have formed part of the old Pundra kingdom, the country of the Pods, whose capital was at Mahasthan.

Rajshahi has many place of interest. One of them: Shrine of Hazrat Shah Mokhdum, Varendra Research Museum, Central Park and Zoo, ChottoBongram, Uposhahar, Sopura.
