MY FAVORITE PHOTO from the New Year’s Day celebration in Bangladesh.
Tag Archive: Dhaka
PAHELA BAISHAKH (Bengali New Year – 1417), ( was celebrated in Dhaka. The festivities started at sunrise. I first played a football match and then headed to Ramna Park, followed by Dhaka University. At Ramna Park this group of Drama Club members welcomed me into their tent, where I enjoyed Panta Bhat (rice soaked in water) with hilsha fry (national fish), and alu chop. They helped to make it a special day for me.
