Dhaka is the capital city of Bangladesh and the tenth
largest city in the world. It has an estimated population of more than 15.5
million people in the Greater Dhaka Area. Dhaka is one of the major cities of South
Asia, being Bangladesh's seat of government and an important cultural and
financial centre, alongside Chittagong. It stands on the east bank of the Buriganga
River in the central Bengal delta. Dhaka was historically called the City of Mosques and the Venice of the East. It is also known
as the Rickshaw Capital of the World,
due to its daily traffic of over 600,000 cycle rickshaws.
Dhaka is the administrative seat of an
eponymous division and district. The Old City of Dhaka served as the Mughal capital of Bengal in the 17th
century. Modern Dhaka is one of the fastest growing megacities in the world.
Although it has a diverse economy, a high literacy rate and rapidly developing
infrastructure, the city faces major challenges of poverty, pollution, crime, congestion
and political violence; and is continually ranked among the most unlivable
cities in the world.
As the most populous city of
Bangladesh, Dhaka has a vibrant cultural life. Annual celebrations for Independence
Day (26 March), Language Martyrs' Day (21 February) and Victory Day (16
December) are prominently celebrated across the city. Dhaka's people congregate
at the Shaheed Minar
and the Jatiyo Smriti
Soudho to remember the national heroes of the liberation war. These
occasions are observed with public ceremonies and rallies in public grounds.
Many schools and colleges organize fairs, festivals and concerts in which
citizens from all levels of society participate.
Dhaka has the largest number of
schools, colleges and universities of any Bangladeshi city. The education
system is divided into 5 levels: Primary (from grades 1 to 5), Junior (from
grades 6 to 8), Secondary (from grades 9 to 10), Higher Secondary (from grades
11 to 12) and tertiary.
Cricket and football are the two most
popular sports in Dhaka and across the nation.
