Culture is the sum total  of man's behaviour.  

In every program we  want sweets.

In outside of Bangladesh also celebrate Pahela Baisak.

MY CITY

Chittagong /tʃɪtəɡɒŋ/ (Bengali: চট্টগ্রাম Bengali pronunciation: [tʃɔʈʈɔgram]; Porto Grande de Bengala; Mughal Islamabad) is a major coastal seaport city and financial centre in southeastern Bangladesh. The city has a population of more than 2.5 million^[1] while the metropolitan area has a population of over 6.5 million,^[5] making it the second largest city in the country. It is the capital of an eponymous district and division. The city is located on the banks of the Karnaphuli River between the Chittagong Hill Tracts and the Bay of Bengal.

natural harbour

The natural harbour of Chittagong has been a gateway to the historic region of Bengal for centuries.^[6] It was a prominent trading centre and hosted the first European colonial enclaves in Bengal, which were operated by the Portuguese in the 16th and 17th centuries. The district was ruled by the Sultanate of Bengal, the Kingdom of Mrauk U and the Mughal Empire until the 18th century, at which point it was ceded to the British East India Company. The port was the terminus of the Grand Trunk Road and the Assam Bengal Railway. During the Burma Campaign in World War II, the city was also a key base for Allied Forces. Rapidindustrialisation followed the war.^[7] Becoming a part of East Pakistan in 1947, the city was the site of Bangladesh's Declaration of Independence in 1971.
