We have placed this link here because Bangladesh is on the 'Don't go to parts of' list at the time of writing. We constantly monitor the FCO travel advice site and our advice is to check their advice yourself using the link above.
If you click on their Travel Advice by Country left hand link you'll see
that the 'don't go to' list of countries is broken into four sections:
1. Where the FCO advise against all travel to the country
2. Where the FCO advise against all travel to parts of a country
3. Where the FCO advise against all but essential travel to a country
4. Where the FCO advise against all but essential travel to parts of a country.
So, the current advice relates only to parts of Bangladesh. You can check to see which particular regions of Bangladesh the FCO is advising against travel and holidays to, by clicking on their Bangladesh link on the Travel Advice by Country page.
| Discovery
Bangladesh Bangladesh is one of the few countries in South Asia, which remains to be explored. Bangladesh has a delicate and distinctive attraction of its own to offer and it is definitely not a tourist haunt like Nepal or India. Bangladesh is like a painter's dream come true with a rich tapestry of colors and texture. The traditional emphasis of the tourist trade has always been on the material facilities offered by a country rather than on its actual charms. This may be a reason why Bangladesh has seldom been highlighted in the World's tourist maps. |
Bangladesh
Travel
While Bangladesh might not be everyone's cup of tea, it certainly makes
for unforgettable travel. The country might not be heavily developed in
terms of hotels, shops and conveniences, but it still has lots to offer.
Most of the attractions here have to do with the incredibly natural wealth
of the country.
Lonely
Planet - Bangladesh
Hiding behind the evening-news images of cyclones and floods is a lush land
with a rich history and passionate people. Visit archaeological sites dating
back over 2000 years, check out the longest beach and the largest littoral
mangrove forest in the world, and see the decaying mansions of 19th-century
maharajas.

Packing - Bangladesh
Bangladesh borders India and lies at the head of the Bay of Bengal. Once
a part of the India of the British Maharajahs and formerly known as East
Pakistan, Bangladesh is known as the most crowded country on Earth although
once there, the 10 people per square kilometre does not really feel like
a squeeze, and the independent traveller can find space at attractions to
enjoy.
