Some of the best phots would have been from inside this museum, but cameras not allowed inside.
The building is the former home of the Dhaka Nawab Family (long history, not sure on all the details, but am assured they were important) and was built in the 1860's, it has ben restored in part inside and rooms such as the ballroom and dining hall have been filled with exact replica furniture based on photographs from the era. The dining room, all set for a banquet is particularly impressive.
So no photos from the inside, but heres some of the outside of the building. It is set on the banks of the Buriganga river, in Old Dhaka.
Will put up some photos from Bangkok soon, neither of us wanted to come back, but not long till we go to India so won't complain too much.
