Dhaka City has a lot of traffic jams, but it also has the best recreational places like restaurants, malls, etc.

From other countries, you can directly arrive here through the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport. It is a busy city overcrowded with people, and traffic jam is common in every part of the city. You will find people very much hospitable in our city, particularly if a person from a foreign country is seeking help.

Traffic is a major issue in this city. It’s pretty much exhausting. people have to go out with a lot of time in their hands. And he/she should be aware of people on streets. Because they are highly judgemental when it comes to clothes.

Dhaka is the capital Bangladesh. It is one of the most densely populated cities in the world, with a population of about seven million people. Though my city has many problems like traffic jam and pollution, it is well known for its natural beauty and it is popular among the tourists.

Abdullah, says: 2020

Traffic jams are one of the biggest problems here. This is the bad part. The good part is in Dhaka there are many popular restaurants, shopping malls, historic places and there are some good place for living like banni, dhanmondi, etc.

Dibakar, says: 2020

My city is heavily populated city. For moving there someone have to know about here’s environment. There have also highly traffic problems vehicles can’t move in this city like others countries city. As a overpopulating city It’s have over humidity and have dust problem. Dhaka become the top in dust problem. These things is enough to know for moving here.

There is a lot of traffic in this city. The weather is extremely hot and humid in here. If a person is does not speak bangla, then they should consider learning it since very few people something else. There is a possibility of being pickpocketed in crowded places if one is not careful.

Dhaka, my city is known for its notorious traffic congestion. Air pollution and sound pollution are also there. The weather is hot. On positive note, one can find myriad historical and beautiful places. Foods are excellent here. One can also enjoy all civil amenities since it is a capital city.

Dhaka is a city of many virtues as it draws you in with a irrevocable promise of never letting you down. Although, you may have to tolerate an hour or two of traffic everyday which sounds exhausting and it honestly is. Yet, sitting in that traffic you will surely see this: a city full of life. Street hawkers toiling day and night, people travelling to and from work, children with no one to look upon them playing on the streets without any care in the world, and more.

Before moving on to Dhaka city, one must remember that it is a densely populated city of Bangladesh. here traffic jam and environment pollution are main factors which should be look upon mainly. Besides, the living cost is very much expensive. On the other hand, the accessibility of things are easily available.

Someone moving to Dhaka, Bangladesh, should prepare for traffic jams. It’s a great city with interesting people, interesting places. And the food is just amazing. It’s a great place. But moving here, living here, finding a job is a tough work to do. The city is already overpopulated already. And there are more people than there are opportunities. And even if you manage to find a job then starts the struggle of working. But apart from traffic, I love this city.

Have a good sense of direction, and an ability to follow directions well. They need to be patient to successfully tackle traffic issues. They might consider knowing how to cook, to save expenses, since food over here is quite expensive. They would need to have some sort of savings before, since landing a job is a bit tricky.

Farzana, says: 2020

I recommend moving here. Because Dhaka is the most populated city in Bangladesh and there is a huge job opportunity for people. The lifestyle of the people of Dhaka is different. They are very busy with their job all time. Though it is a most traffic always here.

Dhaka is a metropolitan city which is not for everyone. Amidst the city’s urban growth, the city has undergone massive development both in terms of technology and infrastructure since the year 2000. Although it is filled with these improvements, it is also a city that can leave you frustrated. Long hours of traffic jam, unpredictable load shedding, poor traffic communication and poor pollution treatment can lead to believe that Dhaka still has a long way to go for development.

The top of the list is always traffic jam. It has reached to a level, which is often unbearable for citizens living for ages here. hygiene is also a major concern along with poor safety. The concern for the demand of clear water is also not functioning.

Shahnaz, says: 2020

The Traffic spots and the Mosques reviews shall be known since Dhaka is called the city of mosque. Again, the nature of people shall be known so that you don’t fall into wrong hands. My City has several tasty cuisines that you must try and I bet if you once eat it you’d die to try it again.

Dhaka is actually an overpopulated city, so people’s living standard is not up to the mark. Traffic is always heavy and the house rent or other expenses are high too. Also, because of overpopulation, the working opportunity is less too. for the person considering whether to move, I’d suggest to look for other options.

Ishtiak, says: 2020

Dhaka city is a noisy but enticing place. Due to the abundance of jobs here, it is an extremely congested city. To be specific, it is home to over 20 million people. be prepared to deal with crazy traffic every rush hour or otherwise.

1. It is one of the dirtiest cities in the world.
2. It is land of opportunity.
3. It is the capital of our country.
4. It is the land of higher education.
5. It is an overly crowded place with hours of traffic jams.
6. Dhaka has Dhaka university which is Oxford of the east.

Dhaka is a city traffic jams and a lot of people. It is full of people and life, but if you are not a fan of crowds, you should reconsider your decision moving to this city.

Dhaka is the rickshaw capital of the world. The rickshaws provide comfort to the common people while providing employment to 100,000s. Even rickshaw art is a great business now. Dhaka city, the capital of Bangladesh, is best known for: Its Traffic and Crowd: No wonder, Dhaka is best known for the excessive population and the unplanned distribution of crowd and traffic.

Tazrina, says: 2020

Dhaka is a densely populated city. It is quite unorganized and dirty. But if the country is considered, Dhaka is the best option. Dhaka has more of the options that you’d want than any other city. It has its faults, but living in Dhaka has its own perks. Traffic jam is the main issue, but if you can find a lot of stuff within walking distance of your home.

Rezwana, says: 2020

Anyone moving to Dhaka should really be prepared for the noise and infamous traffic that persists all day. However, the city life is great and they will never be bored as countless entertainment opportunities are present including malls, movie theatres and cafes. if they do not mind the hustle and bustle of city life, they should fit in just fine.

Tahidul, says: 2020

The lifestyle of Dhaka city is very expensive. Excessive population lives here with unplanned economy and traffic system need to be improved. Too much pollution creates medical hazard. The atmosphere may be a little overwhelming. Still, if someone seeks an active and adventurous experience, the city is exactly what you need.
