Where to go, how to get there, what it costs — in one place

The riverfront residence of the Nawabs of Dhaka on the Buriganga river; now a museum. Also known as the 'Pink Palace' for its colour.

Bangladesh's oldest clock tower, on the north bank of the Surma River beside the iron Keane Bridge; it was founded in 1872 by Nawab Ali Ahmad Khan of Prithimpassa and named after his son, Nawali Amjad Khan. Wikivoyage calls it "the Big Ben of Sylhet" (that page gives a differing construction date; Wikipedia's 1872 founding is adopted here). An evening riverside walk combining the tower and the bridge is a popular city activity.

A 100-metre natural cave inside the roughly 1,000-metre Alutila (Arbari) hill, with cold water flowing along its floor. It is pitch dark inside, so bring a torch; locals sell flambeaux. An easy day trip from Khagrachhari town.

A British-era indigo warehouse about 6 km east of Meherpur town beside the Kajla/Bhairab river, a witness to the exploitative history of indigo cultivation. It is known as an archaeology-administered monument and has been considered a tourist centre since 1978. The two-storey kuthi building, adjacent tank and grounds are worth seeing, though the structures are somewhat neglected.

A two-storey, window-less modern mosque at Charporagachha union in Ramgati; per The Daily Star it is lit by natural light, letting worshippers feel monsoon rain and winter mist without getting wet or overheated. An education complex has grown around it and draws visitors from other districts.

A four-domed historic mosque built around 1610-1611 CE during Mughal emperor Jahangir's reign and protected by the Department of Archaeology. It stands about 6 km south of Tangail city on the eastern bank of the Louhajang River. Its terracotta ornamentation and quiet riverside setting make it a rewarding half-day trip.

One of the finest surviving Bengal Sultanate mosques, built in 930 AH (1523/24 CE) by Sultan Nasiruddin Nasrat Shah. Walls inside and out carry terracotta floral and fruit motifs; the mosque has ten domes beside an old lake, rebuilt after the 1897 earthquake destroyed the originals. It is still used for worship.

A historic rail-ferry terminal on the Jamuna River: in 1912 the railway line was extended from Jamalpur to Bahadurabad Ghat, from where rail ferries crossed to Tistamukh Ghat. The station on the Narayanganj-Bahadurabad Ghat line is now defunct, but the riverside setting and railway heritage still draw history-minded visitors. It is listed among the notable historical sites of Jamalpur district.
