Port of Dhaka, River port on Buriganga River in Dhaka, Bangladesh

The Port of Dhaka is a river port on the Buriganga River, in the southern part of Dhaka. Its main passenger terminal is Sadarghat, which handles hundreds of boats and launches daily, mostly to southern districts. A floating market for fruit and vegetables operates there, and barges load and unload cargo. In 2013, the Pangaon inland container terminal opened 20 kilometres from the city.

The port has been recorded since the Mughal Empire, when a viceroy's fortress was built by the river in the 17th century. Dhaka's riverine position drew Portuguese, French, Dutch, British and Armenian traders, and the riverbanks held mansions, bazaars and warehouses. Under British rule the riverfront became the colonial city's centre, lined with ghats such as Wiseghat and Sadarghat.

Sadarghat, whose name means "City Wharf", hosts a floating market for fruit and vegetables, and its terminal serves steamers carrying passengers to Khulna and other regional cities. Wholesale shops line the road parallel to the river on either side.

Sadarghat, the central wharf of the Buckland Bund, sits just left in front of Ahsan Manzil and is reached by a road running parallel to the Buriganga, lined with wholesale shops. Hundreds of boats and launches leave from here, mostly for the southern districts, and a floating market sells fruit and vegetables. Large ships can no longer dock because the river bed has silted up.

The Pangaon inland container terminal, opened in 2013 about 20 km from the city, can handle 116,000 twenty-foot equivalent units a year. As of July 2017 it served ships linking Dhaka with Chittagong, Mongla and Kolkata, and coastal shipping agreements signed with Thailand and China are planned to cover it.
