Faith, pilgrimage and environmental sustainability in Bangladesh
Pilgrimage tourism in Bangladesh is more than a journey of faith - it is a powerful social, cultural, and economic force. From the vast congregation of the Bishwa Ijtema in Tongi, to the sacred Hindu gathering at Langalbandh Ashtami Snan, and from Buddhist celebrations at Dharmarajika Buddhist Monastery to festivals at Buddha Dhatu Jadi, millions of people travel each year in search of spiritual fulfilment.
