Pohela Boishakh tour in Bangladesh :
The National Cultural Festival of Bangladesh is the Bengali New Year, known as "Pohela Boishakh."
Pohela Boishakh is the first day of the Bengali calendar, which is also the official calendar of Bangladesh. This festival is celebrated on April 14th in Bangladesh. The roots of Pohela Boishakh date back to the Mughal Empire's rule in the region and Emperor Akbar's declaration of tax reforms.
The festival is celebrated with processions, fairs, and family time. The traditional greeting for the Bengali New Year is "Shubho Noboborsho," which literally means "Happy New Year." The festive Mangal Shobhajatra procession takes place in Bangladesh. In 2016, UNESCO declared this celebration organized by the Faculty of Fine Arts at Dhaka University as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
