Bustling, busy Dhaka is one of the world's most populous cities, with 7 million living in the city itself and another 10 million residing in the greater Dhaka area. The capital of Bangladesh, Dhaka is an economic and cultural centre with much to explore, including a thriving arts and restaurant scene.
