Navana Tower
Overview
Navana Tower is a 23-story commercial high-rise in Gulshan, Dhaka's central business district. As one of the taller structures in the area, it serves as an urban landmark and offers views over the downtown skyline. Travelers typically visit to view the building while touring Dhaka's modern commercial center.
Getting There
From central Dhaka, the site is reachable by taxi or auto-rickshaw in 30 to 60 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. From Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (DAC), the drive south takes around 30 to 45 minutes.
Time to Spend
Allow about 30 to 45 minutes to view the exterior and take in views of the surrounding district.
When to Visit
Late afternoon provides clear daylight for observing the skyline before dark. The cooler, dry months between November and February offer the most comfortable weather for travel.
