Transportation:
there are 11 airports in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a riverine country, river transport is the most common. Travelling
in and around Dhaka isn't as easy as in other countries you can't take taxis everywhere. A small amount of taxis have just
been introduced to the country.
For short distances within the city we rode in a rickshaw; a human pedaled vehicle kind of like a bike with a shaded cover.

and there were 3 swimming pools.
