Day 3 to Day 5 (Saturday-Monday 16-18 Dec 2017) - Using our smart phone's GPS, KC and myself were able to explore a number of touristy places (within 2-3 km radius) at our own leisure in old Dhaka city.

Day 3 Saturday 16 Dec 2017

My First CNG (local tuk tuk) ride from Hotel 71 to Bashundhara Mall - 150taka (Rm7.80) and then to Kakrai mosque (200taka). On our final day, we took a CNG (300taka) to Dhaka airport - so easy and economical with this form of transport in Dhaka.

can easily accommodate 2 persons with small luggage - 150-200 taka for short trips in downtown Dhaka 
Due to communication problem, we skipped taking the local city bus. Buses here are old & crowded !
