Bangladesh
Tucked in between India and Myanmar (Burma), Bangladesh is one of Asia's undiscovered jewels. This vibrant country has a rich cultural heritage, friendly people and incredible physical beauty, with emerald green rice paddies, lush tropical rainforests and the world's longest natural sea beach. Bangladesh is amongst the least visited Asian countries, and is therefore an enticing destination for the audacious traveler who seeks a profound learning experience, and is happy to forgo luxurious accommodation in exchange for true cultural immersion.
Most of the people are Bengali-speaking Muslims and Hindus, but Bangladesh's colorful tapestry also includes a sizeable minority of remarkable Buddhist and Animist tribal people. Bangladesh is often thought of as a country of monsoons, floods and poverty, and indeed the sight of sinewy rickshaw pullers running barefoot down the street in Dhaka is all too frequent. However, this stimulating destination has so much to offer on so many levels, and should be explored by the adventurous traveler before the throngs of tourists catch on, as they undoubtedly will.
Remote Lands immerses you in Bangladesh's culture by providing insider access to private events and extraordinary people. Our journeys will introduce you to a multi-faceted selection of remarkable people from top businessmen and government leaders to remote villagers and tribal people. Your interactions with these people will be stimulating, edifying and enlightening, and you will have a well-rounded and profound learning experience that you will value forever.
