Hatirpool Bazar at Night

Hatirpool is a busy marketplace in Dhaka, Bangladesh. It is a crowded area, with shopping complexes, hotels & restaurants, and market.[1]

Etymology

Legend has it that the Bhawal Raja used to keep his tamed elephants at Pilkhana. The elephants were taken to the Hatirjheel wetlands for bathing along Elephant Road and Hatirpool (elephant's bridge) hence the name of the area.[2]
