Dhaka isn’t for everyone. Nothing sinister about it, it’s just not a place that’s been curated for tourism. As natives we do know a lot about the city, but as people who moved away as children we also return to experience the city as outsiders from time to time, learning more about our country and our own histories in the process. One thing we do in Dhaka every time? Eat plates of fuchka at New Market.
