Dhaka is the capital and largest city of Bangladesh and one of the most densely populated cities in the world, home to approximately 22 million people in the greater metro area. It operates on Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6), a fixed year-round offset. Dhaka is one of the fastest-growing mega-cities in the world. Bangladesh is the world's second-largest exporter of garments after China — the ready-made garment (RMG) industry, centered in Dhaka, accounts for over 80% of Bangladesh's export earnings, employing around 4 million workers, mostly women. The city's Buriganga River was historically the lifeblood of trade, and the Old Dhaka area retains a dense, vibrant historic commercial character with centuries-old mosques, markets, and architecture. The Shaheed Minar monument and the Lalbagh Fort are key historical landmarks. Bangladesh has shown remarkable development progress, dramatically reducing poverty and improving health outcomes over the past three decades.
