The Countryside road to Kushtia
As we start off our morning on the deserted banks of the Ganges, we moved to a SW direction of the country to the city of Kushtia.
With more fertile farmland that anyone can imagine in one country, most of the people in this area seem to farm Mangos as a profession and the towns have small markets set up everywhere. The photos of the people in each of the small villages was amazing and so was the landscape. People are still very friendly and give a stare when you wave at them.
We had a chance to stop by the tomb of Lalon Shah who is one of the most famous philosophers and folk singers in Bangladesh. We had a chance to hear some of his music at an academy that is still run by some people who follow him as it was amazing to hear the music and see how much people really adore him almost 130 years later.
