Bangladesh is a densely populated country. So we have a lot of places which are often crowded. Some of these places are religious shrines, historical sites and nowadays one can even find a lot of people at bus terminals, public gardens etc. Here I would like to talk about a shopping mall in Dhaka which is always beaming with people. It’s called Boshundhara Mall and it is located in the industrial area of Dhaka. The mall has a total of 3 floors and has 2 levels for parking. It was built approximately 7 years back and one can find stores of all global brands here. The mall is mostly crowded over the weekends when people have their weekly offs. It is a place where no one gets bored as people can do a lot of activities like playing games, watching movies, eating at their favorite restaurant etc. The first time I went to this mall with my cousin who live in Dhaka. It was during the winter and it had been only a month since the opening of the mall. We had heard a lot of about the mall from other and some even said it is one of the best mall in Asia. So we wanted to explore it ourselves and we were truly amazed. It was the weekend and the mall was completely filled with people. Everyone looked happy and excited just like us. Also there were festive sales going on and there were huge discounts at most of the stores. So we bought ourselves some new clothes at great price. We spent almost 5 hours at the mall and didn’t even realize how the time went by. Now I am a regular visitor at the mall and I do most of my shopping at this Boshundhara Mall only. Thank you for watching.
