Victoria Memorial in Kolkata, India and Ahsan Manzil in Dhaka, Bangladesh both are iconic structures representing the colonial era's architectural splendor in South Asia. The Victoria Memorial, a blend of Mughal and British styles, commemorates Queen Victoria and showcases British Raj artifacts. In contrast, the pink-hued Ahsan Manzil, or "Pink Palace," served as the residence of Dhaka’s Nawab family and now operates as a museum, offering a glimpse into the region's rich heritage and historical lifestyle.

Dhaka is called the capital of Bangladesh. Dhaka was once known as Dacca. Dhaka became the capital of Bengal in 1610. There are many differences regarding the naming of Dhaka city. Some say that the name Dhaka originated from the Dhakeshwari temple. Again it is heard that Once upon a time in this region, many festivals were celebrated by beating the drum, so Dhaka originated from this Drum.
