Shariatpur District, Administrative district in Dhaka Division, Bangladesh.

Shariatpur District is an administrative area in central Bangladesh with six subdivisions spread across roughly 1,174 square kilometers. The Padma River forms the eastern boundary while the Meghna cuts through the territory, shaping settlement patterns and daily life throughout the region.

The district came into existence in 1984 as a formal administrative unit during Bangladesh's territorial reorganization. Its name honors Haji Shariatullah, a religious reformer whose movement influenced communities throughout the region during British rule.

People here mark their calendar with local festivals and boat races that center on water and community life. These celebrations bring residents from all parts together and shape the social rhythm of everyday life.

The district has an established network of schools and colleges serving learners of all ages across its territory. Infrastructure and services are concentrated in town centers, especially in the administrative hubs of the six subdivisions.

A substantial portion of residents has settled in Italy over recent decades, building economic connections between the district and Italian cities. These migration patterns have created ongoing money flows and cultural exchange between the two regions.
