OLD DHAKA TOUR, BANGLADESH 🇧🇩

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- Old Dhaka is a picture of colour and vibrancy undiscovered by tourists. A trip here is to enter into what feels like a very different world. This is the longest video I've ever made, and for good reason. I visit Sadarghat, Ahsan Manzil, and Shankharia Bazar.

I have been living in old dhaka for the last 24 years, in fact; u have visited the nearest areas of my house (Ahasan Manjil, Shankhari Bazar). For any support and queries u can frankly ask to me. Last of all, welcome to my old dhaka as well as Bangladesh

Visit university of Dhaka at 13 faburay
Oh how I miss old Dhaka, no matter how crowded it is, still it never ceases to surprise new comers, yes it's different compared to other cities but it's got its own vibe.

Love and respect my friend. We pray & hope that you and your family are safe in this corona pandemic.
Jason, I am from US. I was born and grew up in Old dhaka. This really brings so many old memories. I liked your passion about our people and our culture.I am touched by your work .Keep it up and I wish you good luck in all phases of your life.
it's so nice to watch your videos there in BD. I have lots of Bengali friends here in NZ and they are friendly and I could say that they are one of the smartest people I've met. They are so loving and helpful in so many ways. How I wish I could visit their country in the future. ;) You take care, Jason :)

My dear friend, thank you for your kind words. You are MOST welcome to visit Bangladesh. Hope you will get the time and opportunity to visit Bangladesh some time in the future. We pray n hope that you and your family are safe in this Corona pandemic. Love & respect from Bangladesh.
This was the best video on Dhaka I've found, thanks
Hello Joanna...
visit our country....
See it so much dirty place and bad environment
Being a Bangladeshi , think new dhaka is better then old dhaka. Coz , old dhaka has much poverty, rickshaws , traffic jams and dirty bad environment. It also has sound and air pollution.
@@omgmonstergaming2838 where's New Dhaka? Gulshan?
Everytime I tell to my fellow countryman never cheat with foreigners, never speak ill of, never lie to them. Always take a good care, show true respect and make entertain as much as you can. This is how we can boom our tourism industry and accelerate our country's fame to the other world. Thank you so much dear, for visiting us and hopefully someday you'll come back again here...
This has really made us get our butt in gear and get our visas to travel to Bangladesh so we can experience this!
Awesome, glad you’re feeling inspired!
You are always welcomed in bangladesh.
Come.. visit.. you are always welcome
You're most welcome to visit Old Dhaka
Loads of love from a real Dhakaite
Yeah but pay attention to food
a very nice video, good quality and loved that you didn't add music or extra comments. loved the sound of the bells in the road, so surreal. have a safe trip! :)
Thank you for your kind words. Love & respect from Bangladesh.
Hey jeison. I am from Bangladesh. I am very happy to see you in my country. Thank you sooooooo much for visiting my country
Possibly ONE of the few best Royal BIRIYANI places in the world still thrives in OLD Dhaka! Awesome!!! Doesn’t get real then this!!!!!
you come here from your beautiful country and learning about our poor people and their hardship works. Thank you brother
I am from Bangladesh thanks for coming in our country wish u best of luck and saying sorry for any problems u faced
Very cool video, thank you. Fascinating place. And, so nice to see nary a person glued to their phone!
WOW Jason, your Bangladesh videos are really amazing. This one i actually had to see 2 times in order to grasp what was really going on :-). I like the way you let these things come to you. To be honest your Bangladesh videos changed my idea and view on Bangladesh and i'd like to bring it a visit in the futur (afther this Corona crisis has ended). Your videos are more genuine and true than documentaries made by TV channels. I was wondering if you had more material to make some XL versions of certain videos? Amazing how many friendly people did approach you....truely a different world.
My dear friend, thank you for your kind words. You are MOST welcome to visit Bangladesh. Hope you will get the time and opportunity to visit Bangladesh some time in the future. We pray n hope that you and your family are safe in this Corona pandemic. Love & respect from Bangladesh.
you are experiencing my country better than I can ever imagine doing. I am ashamed. But inspired as well. Your videos are so heartwarming. I am glad you chose to explore Bangladesh.
Fantastic vlog, well edited, finely balance video as you've captured the everyday life of Dhaka. Good, no video on traffic this time, somehow a must for vlogger. As a fan of classical building your shot on Pink Palace was nice. Rickshaw, boat, market, bridge, river view, shops, restaurants, food, Palace, cricket jersey, poeple, busy street, banners and politician. The best video on Dhaka I've seen coz I never been to BD. Well done.
thank u very much to represent our country. Great job brother.. Go ahead...!!
Beautiful Bangladesh, lovely people . Thanks for aploding this video
That place is just surreal. I can't find a better word to describe it...
You should come to the university of Dhaka at 13 faburay..and aslo visit book Fair .😍
100% agreed. best experience in Dhaka is Dhaka book fair, which is every year only in the month of February. And Dhaka University area is so big, green and beautiful!
I hate books
Mithila Noor
I'm Old Dhaka Boy. Very glad to watch this video.
Hello and welcome to our country 😍 I would like to suggest you to visit Sajek Valley, Nafakhum, Bandarban, Jaflong and The Grand Sultan Sylhet. Those places are pretty awesome. And looks like you're staying in the Mohammadpur area, we can meet sometime if you want. Have fun.
Bro the Grand Sultan Sylhet rooms are gonna be too pricey for him just saying..
Hasib Mamur grand sultan costs a lot tho.Just a regular meal there(for 1 person) costs over 1500 taka
No. It's the area called mahuttuly
Dr. Abu Ibrahim Mohd. Nurul Huda well he visited there alreasy, check the vlog! he said he rooms were cheap and he loved it! Rooms only 1000tk pr day which is cheap for us Brits!
Just discovered your channel
I like your style, you don't get overexcited you're calm. I like how you explain things and greet the locals.
Subscribed to your channel !
so good to see you man! Love from Dhaka 🇧🇩
You looks so natural In my country and blended your self so well all of your videos are enjoyable to watch thanks. Form uk
You just made sure that you have about double the number of subscribers you have now, by the end of this month. Smart move picking Bangladesh mate! You chose the gem of the Subcontinent.
I never been there even I live in Dhaka.You are a real traveller.Hats off
Subscribed you and looking forward to see Bangladesh through your eyes. Just told my wife how we miss all these action just by sitting in fancy car and not interacting with local. I hope you have lots of fun and content to share.
Excellent thanks
Love the up close traffic and locals smiling
It looks intense and amazing. What camera are you using?
Hey Gabe, I use a Canon Powershot G7x and my iPhone. It may look slightly different to others’ footage on that camera because I do my own quick colour grading to enhance the image slightly.
I see, cool, good to know.
Jason Bro, u missed the Lalbagh Killa, man...
next time let me help u to move around the old town if u don't mind✌✌
@@GabrielTravelerVideos just wondering, if you are planning to travel to Bangladesh in the near future? I have already subscribed to your channel n love ur vlogs.
No specific plans right now, but I'd love to visit sometime.
Really enjoyed this video and feel like going back home for a visit. Thank you, Jason.
Glad to hear and see that you liked Bangladesh and the Bangladeshi people's
really impressive.thank you mr jason for depicting our beautiful country to the world.
Very nice. It looks like old towns in India, hundred years ago (Kolkata, old Delhi, Ajmer...), in old movies. I would like to see this so attractive "different world", as you say. Thanks a lot for your video. Have a nice trip.
hugues grasely old dhaka is also 400 years old
Dhaka is 100 years older than Calcutta. Dhaka was founded in 1610 by mughal subadar Islam Khan and Calcutta was founded in 1698 by Job Charnock, who was a member of British East India company.
Shazid Dihan and Monir Hossain: Yes, you're right. Dhaka was proclaimed in 1608 the capital of Mughal Bengal. It was first named Jahangir Nagar in honour of the Emperor Jahangir. Now, Dhaka is one of the world's largest cities, and a very important historical and commercial center. I hope I'll visit soon this marvellous city and this country, too.
hugues grasely ...... you are welcome anytime
Thank you so much, Sir. Have a nice day
Watching your films on Bangladesh made me want to visit the Country. I gave been twice on 4 week trips basing myself in Dhaka and travelling around. I loved Old Dhaka so much as well as everywhere I visited. But what really made it for me were the people. I have never met such friendly and genuine people. I was due to visit again this Not but COVID 19 has put a stop to that. I will be back there as soon as possibly can.
it feels great to see my country from a foreign person's perspective... keep up the good work.. 🙌👏👍
Welcome to Dhaka, hope you can have a great moment here. Thank you for creating such a beautiful video of my country.....
Thanks JASON for visiting my beloved City. 👍👍
I m from that portion of Dhaka u visited..great to see u visited old dhaka..love from 🇧🇩
Welcome my Home Old Dhaka bro 🇧🇩
Now I am stay in Romania 🇲🇩
Mate thanks for these and all other vidoes. I'm bengali, born in Bangladesh but lived most of my life in England, specifically London and you've been to more places than me in Bangladesh. Your a true Bengali lol
Old Dhaka is also famous for food which I think you missed
Mohammad Fasiul Abedin Khan
He is vegetarian.. he can't eat foods lyk biriyani or any item of meat.
Hi Jason! Thank you for your great work! 👍 I’m happy that we found your channel and are watching all your videos from the beginning. This one was especially fascinating! You are doing such a great job with the camera! Thanks again! Cheers from Germany!
Hey, thanks a lot for the nice words. It’s great to hear you’ve been working your way through them! All the best :)
Hi Jason ! Wellcome to Dhaka. Hope you are having some great time :)
Wow old Dhaka. I'm already getting the yaammy smell of old Dhakaia food.
Is Indigo Traveler videos inspire you to come to Dhaka? I wish more and more travel Vloger come to Bangladesh. Its completely a different world.
Yeah, I know Nick and his videos were really good, they helped inspire me a lot to visit Bangladesh for myself.
Mukul, try hard but whoever ever been to Bangladesh, would never believe your self made stories :) if your country is so great then be happy there and behave! bcz your approach doesnt represent anything like that. so please stop making stories to demotivate people about Bangladesh bcz when they will come here they may misunderstand India :) and one thing i want to say is Bangladesh is not at all "more prone to toilets and sanity " yes some poor people cant have a luxurious sanitation but still they have toilets unlike some people who even after being capable, love open defecation over some craziest logic. however, please try to represent your country in a good way and its very possible even if u dont try to show a wrong image of another country to others. have a good day!
guys....stop fighting ..its childish
John Tomoson 😂😂😂
John Tomoson Thanks brother for supporting my country

My dear friend, thank you for your kind words. Love & respect from Bangladesh.
@@iamin03 welcome bro.. Hope to visit bangladesh soon and wear ur nice clothes
@@blasses your MOST welcome to visit my friend. We pray n hope that you and your family are safe in this Corona pandemic. Love & respect from Bangladesh.
You are probably more successful in being an ambassador of good will in this one video than all the ambassadors from all foreign countries ever
Congrats and thanks!
Such a good video, when myself and my family went to Vietnam it was much like Dhaka with the rivers and street food
Love u man.thank u for coming #Banglades and making vlog on old Dhaka.
Old Dhaka definitely looks much more insane, ancient and beautiful in your video. Great Vlog:)
Jason, excellent vlog mate. Visit Sylhet next time if you can. There is so much more there for the tourist. You will see the lush greenery of the tea forests, tranquil roads, high end resorts, expensive mansions, colourful markets. If you need a English speaking local guide I can arrange it for you plus accommodation and transport if you need it. Free of charge of course. Us Sylheti's are known for our hospitality. Btw thanks for visiting Bangladesh and highlighting the positives however the part of Dhaka you visited is like visiting Salford in the UK (nothing there for a tourist).
Haha, I understand what you mean. But it’s an incredible part of Dhaka and not to be missed. I’ll be heading to Sylhet in the near future!
JASON BILLAM TRAVEL
I await eagerly your vlog on Sylhet. There are 4 divisions in Sylhet. Try Moulvibazar which is the best part of Sylhet. 90% of the Tea forests are there. Some of the most expensive resorts are there, namely Grand Sultan Tea & Golf, Duisai, The Palace, Rangauti Resort, Novem Eco Park. Top restaurants are , The Bengal, Monsoon, Neel Akash, Panchi, Agra. Places to visit are Madhubkanda Waterfall, Lawachera National Park, Switch Gate, Pouro Park. Visit the high end mansions built by expatriates mainly from the UK in Moulvibazar town and scattered all over Moulvibazar. Good luck.
Thanks for coming, many loves
Do not forget to visit villages of Bangladesh
Thanks mate to visit old dhaka. I never been there as a Bangladeshi.
It's worth visiting for the experience
Out of all travel blogger, you're the most sensible person.
yes, he is awesome
please come to Sylhet! it's just 240km from Dhaka. You'll be more than speechless here!
Oh Jason, you enjoyed the ride over the Buriganga! Thanks a lot.
wonder how u visited all those streets alone,how rickshaw pullers understand ur language! if u have right information u will get delicious food in perfect price.thanks for visiting our country,,
Hi Jason, really your video touched me and i wish your best of luck always.

Welcome to Bangladesh
I love your Bdesh vlogs!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭 Thanks for this!!
Hey Jason, hope you're doing well. I just saw some vlog of yours. All of those are very nicely and described in details which I love the most. Keep making vlogs and enjoy your every tour. Best of luck for that. Btw your smile is so cute haha and if possible can you change your haircut? If you don't mind 😅 I mean I don't like that under cut it's just my opinion 😝 But anyway thank you for representing our beautiful country Bangladesh and best of luck for your world tour once again. :))
Dhaka is the one of the oldest cities in the world and old Dhaka is the downtown of the Dhaka. It’s very nice how you have portrayed the video, thanks for discovering the city such a wonderful way. Please explore the beautiful and tourist attraction places of Bangladesh like Sylhet, Chittagong, Rangamati, Bandarban and Shundarban. The country sides are really amazing too, the lifestyle of the country is mesmerizing. You will also love during the ceremonial occasions like Pohela Boishakh (Bangla new year), Boi Mela (Book Fair) etc.
beautiful place in bengal
New Subscriber, from Detroit! This is awesome!!
Welcome to Bangladesh... It's a nice country. You should visit some more tourist sport like cox's bazaar, sajek Valley, shylet, bandorban and like more.. Then you know that how beautiful the country is!
0:43 Mosque at the background.this is were i perform my Friday SALA.
great to know you were there.
Nice
It's funny how everyone looks at you weirdly when they see you with a camera in your hand haha.
10BestOnes this matter just happend for foriegner
It happens because of his skin tone. We love white people.
Yeah,you are right
It's pretty much weird but I guess people who came from outside enjoy it..cos you'll feel like celebrity when people r looking at you like this 😜
Its because there is little tourists in Bangladesh and for some people this is the first time they see a white person so they stare. But in south east Asia there is a culture of standing and staring at people.
Thanks dear for introduce my beautiful country . Chittagong city is the second largest city in Bangladesh . invite to our city.
Go to Sylhet Bangladesh.
There's awesome tourist spot that you'll be amazed.
:3 :3 :3
Kisse tor ?
Kisu na bai :'(
Syed Naveed The language spoken there is not intelligible. The accent is unusually thick.
Thanks a lot Mr. JASON MILLAM

get out of dhaka city if u have the time .....u could take a launch boat ride to chadpur town from sadar ghat(where u too the boat ride) will take 3 hrs from the port...the sight seeing is magnificient...and the polluted river goes away...plus ud be one of the first...usually yoytubers just hang around touristy places....give it a try if u have time..u wont regret it...its a good one day trip...there are many one/two day trips that you can do...
plus thebpollution and population density really thins out ince u get out of dhaka city and its sorrounding parts
you are awesome...love your videos...best of luck
@Traveller i agree, Jason is AWESOME!!!!!
