- Making this video was pretty scary to be honest. I walked around Old Dhaka for the first time. There were so many friendly people, lots of food at the markets, and WOW so much to see. I was honestly pretty overwhelmed at the end, but in the end I think everyone was just excited to hang out, talk, and make this amazing video!
If you're thinking about visiting Old Dhaka in Bangladesh, make sure you're prepared to keep walking so you don't end up with an unmanageable crowd like me. I can't believe it, wow, that's all I can say. Enjoy 😉

"Tuition" is place where kids go to a private tutor. Also, where tutor coaches school kids.
Ah okay I see thank you
HI Brad, Don't worry the place you went is very much safe. The little boy was talikng about tuition. In bangladesh students go to teachers home for learning which is called coaching or tuition class. in this process Teachers can earn extra money by teaching outside of the school. In places like this , poeple always get excited whenever they see a foreigner. It is safe but dont go to lonely streets at night, there may be some thieves .sorry for my bad English and welcome to Bangladesh.
Not bad, your English is great and easy to understand. This is super helpful thank you very much!!
I don’t think i can ever visit a place like this, everything seems so sketchy
It was very intense. I wouldn’t recommend for most travelers but still glad I went
I think that boy means tuition. It’s like an extra classes after school, like a revision class. 9:38
Ah okay I see. Thank you!
OMG this video is intense Brad 🤯😳This reminds me of what happened to my friends and I as female travellers we were grabbed and followed. I know they were just excited but it was so scary we ended up leaving early. Glad you didn't bring your beautiful wife with you. Stay safe and be careful with the food you eat and it's a good idea to bring a translator with you that can speak their language.❤ Thank you for all the videos you post showing how it is in other countries.
Ya this one was super intense and very scary! Being alone made it so much more scary, and I'm glad everything turned out okay. I ended up turning off the camera and literally sprinting away. I had to go far too to get away lol. I too am super happy Krisna wasn't with me, and yes I'll be more safe next time. I learned a ton from this experience. I can't even imagine if I was female - 10x the scariness!
Hello Brad, I always enjoy watching your videos, this place looks amazing in Bangladesh. 😊 Remember to stay safe & vigilant when you are travelling. Scams are everywhere.
I will do! Thank you very much!!
That did look quite intense Brad, glad you made it out of there all fine. I think countries like these should have a bit more police presence, just for extra reassurance. Safe travels
Yes me too! So crazy! People in other areas gathered in a similar way, so it was hard to tell if it was problematic or not. But yes I’m glad I kept moving and got out when I did.
Respect to you Brad. Even I am scared to go to these places.
Haha thank you! I really keep my guard up for places like this. This one was pretty scary tbh
I would advise tourists to avoid this area, I’ve seen another UA-camr in this same area getting harassed by these group of boys! They also said in this video that street is called “fagol hana” which means crazy village
Wow so crazy! I wish o had watched those videos before I went so I wasn’t blindsided! Thanks for the info!
Good morning Brad thanks for showing 👍🏿✌🏾
Morning Nancy! Thank you!
Hey Brad, the kids were saying tuition they were waiting for the class to be open
I see okay thank you!
Intense stuff stay safe Brad. 😜✌️
Ya pretty scary, thank you!
Love you bro ❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!😊
Wow, that was stressful.
Yes super intense.
Those little things you thought might b bullets are known as "Tabeez". They are hollow inside and are usually filled with small items that are supposed to enhance a person's health. They are then worn with a black string on various parts of the body.
Ah interesting, thanks for sharing that!
Watching from, Leyte, Phils🇵🇭
Woo, I'll be coming to the Philippines soon!
U r really brave... Ivebeen there for 6 months
6 Months?! You're the brave one
Lol this gave me soooooooooo much anxiety lmao how do you stay calm??!
Lol I was scared and worried on the inside. After turning off the camera I literally ran! Such a crazy day!
I had a feeling u ran away from them after the camera was turned off. 😅
@@afiqahaisyah7777 lol ya I couldn’t think of anything else
Brad when you were walking with those little boys you were look like a Bangladeshi politician 😂
Hahahahahaha, ya??
Dear brother, you visit cox's Bazar vlog vedio....i wanted to see the vedio
I haven’t gone to cox bazaar yet but I want to sometime soon!
Wild
Dude ya it was pretty scary to be honest. Everything was fine in the end but when in a foreign country, it can be intense with a bunch of people crowding like that
Hi Brad, I really enjoy watching your videos, but unfortunately this wasn’t old Dhaka. And I’m really sorry for the wicked behaviour of those bunch of boys 🤦🏻♀️ I hope you get to visit old Dhaka sometime soon you’ll find delicious foods there. Stay safe.
I see! Someone else told me that recently! I’m bummed to have missed and also hope I’m not misinforming too many people. Thanks for the correction. Yes those boys were quite an experience but I was okay in the end. Thank you🙏🥰
You were like an unintentional Pied Piper.... this is how Taylor Swift probably feels with the paparazzi 🤣🤙
Hahahahahaaha
Seriously!!!! So funny
❤
🥰🥰🥰
Like everywhere there are good and bad people.
You just met some spoil children/teenagers. Many of them are out of edication and getting addicted.
They were talking about weed/hemp /smoking.
For sure it's ilegal and you did a good job by avoiding these kids.
Simple trick - whoever is asking money/gift avoid them.
Asking money or gift isn't allowed in Bangaledhi culture.
Thanks for the info! Good to know I made the right call. I didn’t realize it was illegal to ask. Very interesting, thank you very much!! 🙏
The "word" is Tuition. The kids are attending some tuition classes I guess. Spoken thru the face mask, it ends up sounding like guijion
I see thank you very much! Yeah I struggled with that one
Tuition is after school coaching for students
I see thank you!
"I dont like beggars" hits hard bro they were too dumb to even understand 😭
Lol
18:53 it was 10 taka and the kid had your back. The guy with the grey top was a sc*mbag. Also those guys kept offering to take you to smoke weed
Haha ya I kinda thoughts so. But wow I FINALLY understand where they were trying to take me. Thank you so much!
Even I as a Bangladeshi would avoid those neighborhoods man. Those are spoiled teenagers with no jobs. Only smoke weed. Not all Bangladeshis are like them tho. Stay safe out there
Oh wow that puts things into perspective! Thanks for the info!
Its intense phew 😅
lol ya, it was scary... After turning off the camera I literally ran for a bit. Crazy
@WhereisBrad yeah run for your life 😀 be safe and thanks for the video 👍
@@WhereisBradvery little tourist visit bangladesh so when they see one, they get super excited and curious.
Brad, thanks for sharing the raw scenes of our country. I am sorry for your experience with those bad kids, they were trying to scam you into smoking weed, and make you pay for their drugs, such low lives! For future, better to avoid too much narrow alleys, and if you do talk, talk to the young kids (say 8-12), they were nice and curious. The elder ones following you were just spoiled stupids
Yes very good advice! I feel like I can see it in their faces and it’s just a feeling that is clear. Anyways I’m glad I was okay but thanks so much for the great advice!
It's tution.
Gotcha gotcha thank you!
@@WhereisBradit must be so loud on the streets when vlogging. For the viewers, its much easiers to understand whatever the mic is picking up.
Those Chapris made my bro stressed out.
haha ya that was pretty intense for me. Glad everything turned out okay!
@@WhereisBrad sorry for the inconvenience bro.
No worries, that's part of travel! I'm used to it!
@@WhereisBrad only a pure traveller can say this, keep the good stuff rolling.... best of luck for your upcoming travel videos.
That’s a big compliment for me. Thanks so much man, means a lot to me! Thanks and will do!!
Any Plans to come to India ? Since U are in Bangladesh, I would suggest u to visit Kolkata, Nagaland, Sikkim, other North Eastern states, etc since they are near. U will love it. Just avoid Manipur as insurgency is going on, And Having Myanmar at its side isnt helping much thanks to instability there.
Anyways u are always welcome. Also I suggest u to visit Kerala and Northern States of Uttarakhand, Himachal
I actually had a ticket to Kolkata but my flight was delayed and then cancelled. I’m likely coming back to India later this year. Thanks for all the recommendations, I’ll do some research!!! Super helpful!
@@WhereisBrad Welcome 🙂
I recognise that little boy in yellow … that area boys tried scamming another UA-camr
Oh wow!😮
You should explore Chittagong/Chattogram in Bangladesh than Dhaka.Dhaka doesnt have anything special to go honestly.
I had a flight there before but it was delayed and then cancelled! I’ll have to come try again later
🤣🤣🤣👍
🙏😊
felt bad seeing you in such situation i would suggest not to talk to anyone who touches you in over friendly manner if thier gesture is extra open avoid them or they will go beyond limits
also i wanted to mention one more thing that the big boys were talking bad about you just mentioned you so you know that they were bad people's
Oh wow. Ya I learned a lot from this experience. I’m glad nothing bad happened in the end and now I will be sure to avoid situations like these
Thanks a lot for the good advice and information
your most welcome
Hy not good boys
Ya, I felt a little worried. Not knowing made it all a bit sketchy.
ভাইরা যারা বাংলাদেশ থেকে দেখছো তারা একটু ওদের কে বলবা
🙏🙏🙏
19:02 they were scamming you.
Omg
those guys are offering you weed ha ha.
Lol is it not common to hold your hand up to the mouth to indicate that here? Either way, thanks for explaining lol!
Bangladeshi boys move around in mobs lol
Seriously! Where ever I go they crowd around. It's intense!
22:00 scamming again.
Wow
26:17 scamming again.
Okay well I’m glad I made it out okay. Thanks for letting me know
This is just a wrong hood you went to, they are not how bengali classy people behave so sorry!
Ahh I see. Ya it was pretty intense there for a bit but glad everything turned out okay. 👌 I don’t judge a country off one experience though and everywhere else felt much safer
Fun fact: This is not Old Dhaka.
Wait really? Was I close?
@@WhereisBrad think it was the outskirts of Dhaka. You should definitely collab with local bloggers who can guide you and take you to the most famous places.
Try to visit tourist places and avoid dhaka visit
What are some of the more touristy places? I usually am more interested in the locals places, but I like to do a mix.
@@WhereisBrad Sylhet, Jafflong, Volagonj, Cox's Bazar, Saint Martin Island, Kaptai lake, Rangamati, Bandarban, Khagrachori, Barishal Ship journey, Bagerhat, Mongla, Khulna etc
ভাই কেনো তোমরা এর টাকা গুলো নস্ট করো আমি বাংলাদেশ থেকে বলতাছি আমি দেখছি তো বিডিও টা তোমরা এর সাথে মাটির ব্যাকে৫০টাকা নিয়ে মজা করলা এটা টিক না ভাই এরা আমাদের মেহমান তোমরা কেন এগুলা করলা
I’m not really understanding your comment sorry. But ya it was tough for me to know how much to pay people for things. When people are kind to me I like to help people when I can so I don’t think it’s wasting.
Always stay away from this kinds of kids
Yes indeed I learned so much from this!!
like your vids bro, one tip 4 real that I didn't love them, get a new camera, your video quality is out of date, they would be more more nicer.
Ya... I'll be getting an upgrade before I go on my next trip. This is with the GoPro Hero 10. I actually have a nice Sony ZV-E1 with a new wide Tamron prime lens. But it is so much to carry around. I constantly experiment with video gear so I have a few plans for my next set of equipment.
