Rickshaw Art
By far the most popular means of transportation in Bangladesh is the rickshaw. In Dhaka alone there are over 600,000! These rickshaws are decorated with 'rickshaw art', and popular themes include the Taj Mahal, nature scenes of rural Bengal, Islamic scenes such as mosques, movie scenes and movie star portraits, futuristic cities, and planes. I've been on the hunt for the right piece to bring home.

MarC I like that your blog is called 'Blog'. I also like that your posts are short and to the point. My sister sells on Etsy. I will pass along your blog, I think she'll like it. I do too!
