Description : Shakhari Bazaar, one of the oldest surviving neighborhoods in Dhaka. Besides its rich architectural heritage Shakhari Bazaar is also home to the Shakhari community, a community that has been living here practicing the same craft of Shakha (conch-made bangles) making as their ancestors did over the last 500 years. With their habitats, lifestyle and craft this community of Shakhari has become a living heritage of Old Dhaka. Bangladesh.
