Planning Around Dhaka Traffic

Dhaka's traffic can double a journey time without warning. Planning for it is part of every trip.

Know the busy hours

Morning and evening rush hours are the slowest. Rain can make roads slower still.

Build in a buffer

For flights and fixed appointments, leave much earlier than a map suggests.

Reduce the journeys

Group your errands by area and stay near your first or last destination, such as the airport.

Use live information

Check a map or ride-share app for current conditions before leaving.

Plan your stay

Hotel D Palace is in Ashkona, Dakshinkhan, near Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport and the Hajj Camp. Browse the rooms, read the FAQ or contact the hotel on WhatsApp.
