Shaheed AHM Kamaruzzaman Central Garden & Zoo

The 33-acre public space combines landscaped gardens with diverse animal exhibits, including tigers, deer, crocodiles, monkeys, and multiple bird species.

The site transformed from a British colonial horse racecourse into a public park in 1972, followed by the zoo establishment in 1983.

The gardens and zoo honor A.H.M Kamaruzzaman, a national leader who contributed to Bangladesh's development after independence.

The entrance fee of 25 BDT grants access to both garden and zoo areas, which include an amphitheater, children's rides, and picnic spots.

The garden features a lake with paddle boats and contains plans for a specialized butterfly corner to increase nature engagement opportunities.
