Hatirjheel Musical Dancing Fountain

An eye-catching dancing water fountain has been added to Hatirjheel and it has become a favourite spot for Dhakaites to spend some leisure time. The city has become a place where traffic jam and pollution is normal phenomena. People only have food courts and restaurants to spend some quality time. After Hatirjheel was commissioned people got a new place for hanging out and spending time with family and friends. This is the place where people can be near to the nature and water at the same time.  
The musical dancing fountain is located in the water of hatirjheel which is 1,980 square metres. The fountain creates aesthetic designs of different colours and three-dimensional images, achieved by employing the effects of timed sound and lights, including lasers against water particles. The water refracts and reflects the light, and in doing so, creates the images.
 The Hatirjheel fountain shoots water and different coloured light beams around 10 metres high, which can be seen from various surrounding locations, including Police Plaza at Gulshan 1, Merul Badda, Modhubagh, and Begunbari. According to Guinness World Records, the largest fountain is located in Singapore. Covering 1,683 square metres, the Fountain of Wealth shoots water up to 13 metres high.

When I first watched the musical dancing fountain, I was amazed at the first glance. I think this a very good step by the government.

Pari Bibi’s Mazar

Image
Dhaka is a land of long, chequered history. Pari Bibi’s Mazar is one of the most impressive historical monuments of the city can claim to its fame. The memorial over the tomb was made by Shaista Khan, the Mughal Subahdar of Bengal. When I first visited the grave, I was thrilled and spilled at its beautiful art and exterior decor. It was a great pleasure for me to visit there. But when I heard about the story behind the tomb, I got a little pain in my heart. I could feel the sorrowful story of the Mughal period, at the same time I could see a father’s pathetic face for losing his daughter. Bibi Pari, the daughter of Shaista Khan, who was married to Prince Azam, used to live with the prince at Dhaka. In 1684, an unwanted death of Bibi Pari shocked Shaista Khan so badly which led him to construct the Pari Bibi’s Mazar inside the Lalbagh fort.
