The Magnetism of Spring in Bangladesh


Spring brings freshness to all aspects of life. "Pohela Falgun," the first day of spring, is a traditional festival in Bangladesh. Tuning into the colorful life with the flavor of spring is the festival theme. Bangladesh experiences six distinctive seasons in a calendar year, and Falgun marks the beginning month of the Bengali calendar.

Likings, favoritism, and fondness differ from person to person, species to species, and culture to culture. Plants, birds, insects, and the landscape of our villages come alive with a new blush. There is a unique blend in the rural structure of Bangladesh; residents come from different mindsets, residing together with diverse cultural, religious, and educational backgrounds. The originality of this season conveys harmony among all lives, regardless of religion, literacy, and societal standing. The varied season of 'Spring' is the most colorful and enthralling segment of the calendar year. The rural landscape begins transforming its facade with an incredible array of colors. The changes at this moment are unmistakably observable.

Shimul flowers (Bombax ceiba), symbolizing Spring in Bangladesh, enhance the rural landscape.
