Gulshan

Home to foreign embassies and corporate offices, Gulshan is an upscale district centered on Gulshan Avenue, lined with modern cafes and trendy eateries, from steakhouses to Italian and Thai. High-end restaurants also dot Banani, an area known for shops selling traditional handloom saris and handicrafts. Spreading around a large pond, tree-filled Gulshan Lake Park offers a circular jogging track.
