Some pictures of seldom-seen Khulna, third largest city of Bangladesh, with a few more to come in future posts. The first photo is of a building called Akunji Tower, the second is the Safe n Save Mall, and the third is a Grameen Phone building. These pics are by Fahim 519:

More Khulna photos by Fahim 519. The first building is Hotel Millenium, the second is Hotel Tiger Garden, and the third is not named:

(These photos support my opinion that phone lines should be made illegal in BD (

Thanks, credit to the photographer of course. Khulna is underdeveloped relative to its size...but things are hopefully picking up there as in the rest of BD. A few more pics in the next day or two...

Excellent stuff Tan,would love to see more pics of this city.Really like the design of the Safe and Save market

meghnarmajhi · December 17th, 2008, 08:07 PM

ty tan. need a lot of pictures from outside of dhaka

tanzirian · December 18th, 2008, 12:00 AM

Yer all welcome. A few more Khulna pics. The first is of an intersection called Sib Bari (I think) and the building at right is the Krishi Bank. The second pic is of the Baitun Noor Masjid which is probably the largest modern mosque in town...by looks of things it (or at least the minaret) is still under construction. The last pic is of Khulna Medical College. The first pic is by Aminul H, the second by Fahim 519, and the third by Mahbub321. Next post will have a couple of Safe N Save pics for Mirza. The photographer wrote that it was "the largest shopping mall in BD." Well, maybe not...

....but a step forward for Khulna, no doubt.

What are you doing up at this hour?

tanzirian · December 18th, 2008, 12:25 AM

As promised...the great Safe n Save, Khulna

* Photos are by Fahim

Dhakaiya · December 18th, 2008, 03:07 PM

Its size is more of a supermarket than a 'mall' but certainly good for Khulna.

Safe N Save reminds of that department store/supermarket in Kuala Lumpur, owned by some South Indian folks (like Mustafa in SG), I forget the name.

Small but still mall concept. Looks like it is shared by multiple vendors.

Nice shots of Ghazipur

Thanks guys

Trip to Khulna recorded from Bangla Vision. I missed small interesting portions of the show due to my computer hardware limitations.
