Narail District, Administrative district in Khulna Division, Bangladesh.
Narail is an administrative district in southwestern Bangladesh that is divided into three subdivisions, each with its own towns and rural areas. The district is connected by a network of regional highways and local roads that link its numerous villages and administrative units.
The district took shape under British colonial rule, when local landowners developed markets and educational institutions. This early growth established the basic structure and institutions that would define the area in later decades.
Mosques and temples are woven into daily community life, reflecting how different religious groups have lived alongside each other here. The presence of both buildings shows how residents of different faiths share the same spaces and towns.
Getting around the district is easiest by using local buses and taxis, since villages are connected by a network of roads. Visitors often find it helpful to rely on local transport options rather than arranging private vehicles for everyday travel.
A college founded in the mid-1800s still operates here and stands as one of the country's oldest modern educational institutions. It demonstrates how educational advancement reached this region much earlier than many might expect.
