Bangladesh Tourism Office
Prior to the time of Bangladeshs' liberation in 1971, most tourists kept their visits to, Dhaka and Agrabad, however with limited satisfactory accomodation in the rest of Bangladesh at that time, saw neighbouring Kolkata in West Bengal, who were well ahead with their facilities, soar in popularity. It took until the middle of the nineteen nineties for the improvement in accomodation started to show increased numbers of tourist flow.
