Chapai Nawabganj, Administrative district in Rajshahi Division, Bangladesh.
Chapai Nawabganj is an administrative district in northwestern Bangladesh within the Rajshahi Division, characterized by fertile flatlands crossed by rivers, ponds, and water reservoirs. The landscape consists of agricultural fields and scattered towns connected by roads and rail lines.
The district was established in 1984 and traces its origins to the ancient capital of Gour in Bengal, located at the confluence of the Mahananda and Ganges rivers. This historical connection to the Ganges region shapes its significance today.
The population includes Muslims, Hindus, and ethnic groups such as the Oraon and Santal who practice traditional Gambhira folk songs and dances. These art forms remain part of everyday celebrations and village gatherings throughout the district.
The district has bus services, railroad connections, and river routes linking various towns and offering visitors multiple travel options. The best time to visit is between October and March when the weather is cooler and drier.
Mango cultivation forms the agricultural foundation of the Shibganj, Bholahat, and Gomostapur upazilas, establishing this as a major production area in Bangladesh. During the mango season, visitors can explore local markets and fruit farms to see the different varieties grown here.
