For budget visitor and tourists their are thousands of guest houses, hotels, boardings etc. These generally quite affordable. From $5.00 - $ 50.00 per night. These are mostly in Banani, Gulshan of Dhaka city.http://www.angelfire.com/tx/rezaul/guest.htmFood is quite cheap affordable and testy. Only thing is, to avoid drinking tap water. Visitors should take bottled pure water, which generally cost about $ 0.20 /liter bottle. MUM is a good reliable brand.           Those travelers  who like urban view may find some interesting places in Dhaka to visit. Dhaka city is growing very fast, everywhere you find construction of sky scraper going on. Population growth is also quite fast. Naturally, Government facing difficulties to cope with the public demand. Road transport are in a bit chaotic. Too many people, too many transports, but not enough road space.                                   Most common road transport is Rickshaw. Millions are in Dhaka. All travelers must go for a Rickshaw ride. It is cheap and fast also.Parliament Building near old airport is a famous structure.  Nawab’s palace in Sadarghat is also another structure tourists should visit.  As usual like many other country Dhaka city has two sides one is the old city and the other  new city. New part is growing fast. with many sky scrappers.      The Liberation monument in Savar is a spectacular  structure. Any foreign diplomats or head of the Government who visit Bangladesh place wreath in respect of the soldiers died during liberation war in 1971. This the national monument. On way to Savar people get some glimpses of rural beauty of Bangladesh.  Bangladesh is a riverine country. It is quite plain. So boats are a common transport any one can find in Bangladesh. Paddle small boats in use mostly for localized transportation.
