Bangladesh…Hidden Land and its Natural Wonders
November 11 - November 24, 2025
Led by Islamic Art Historian, Iman R. Abdulfattah
Welcome to an unspoiled destination: Bangladesh. A fascinating country outside the radar of mass tourism. Within it are unseen relics of long-forgotten Buddhist kingdoms, lush tea plantations, primeval swamps with tigers, tribal clans in the Chittagong Hill Tracts area with indigenous tribes with hidden cultures and stretches of beautiful beaches, as well as freshwater dolphins, and most importantly, some of the most hospitable people you will ever meet. Being one of the world’s least traveled destinations, you will be delighted at the absence of tourists, and locals are delighted to have you take their pictures and never ask for money. Our tour will be the perfect amalgam of highlights offered by this fascinating country.
Come with us to explore ancient architecture, ruined medieval cities, religious sites, grand mosques and haunting Hindu temples, beautiful lakes and rivers and shrines of Muslim saints, colorful bazaars, mega shipyards, and soothing rolling green hills. This country is a photographer’s paradise.
