Places to visit in Madaripur

Madaripur takes its name from the Sufi saint Shah Madar, and the river Arial Khan flows past it. A lake sits at the heart of the quiet town, and its villages hold a terracotta temple and the ruins of an indigo factory.

From Dhaka, a bus over the Padma Bridge reaches Madaripur in about 2.5 to 3 hours.

Getting there from Dhaka: bus, train, fares
