Bicycle St, Old Dhaka by daylight...

Bicycle Street is where all things rickshaw can be found, including the famous rickshaw art, and vans carrying tiny replica rickshaws... or plastic tricycles, as they are usually known in Australia.
Old Dhaka is also home to the meat man, the metal clasp man, and lots of gorgeous children! Once again, the camera was the best way to make friends with people - everyone wanted to talk to us ('your country madam?'... 'Apa, husband ache?') and have their photos taken....

We got trapped in a mass migration of people leaving for the Eid holidays in their villages.It seemed as though everyone in Dhaka was walking down the road carrying suitcases on their heads, and the cars and CNGs were all a complete standstill. A lovely man came to our rescue (?) and took us through the backstreets to find a CNG to take us back to Dhanmondi!
