Hello friends, I hope you are all well. I am also well because of the infinite mercy of God. Once again, I come to you to participate in this amazing topic of the second week of the Steemit Engagement Challenge. Through today's challenge, I will share with you about my trip to a Museum.

Tell us about your trip to a Museum or Zoo. What's the place's name?

---

This year in February I went to one of the best museums I've ever visited, a trip I'll always remember. The museum is named after the father of our nation and is called Bangabandhu Military Museum. It is located in Shyamoli, one of the most convenient areas of our capital city, Dhaka.

At first I thought it might be like all the other museums but when I entered It changed my mind. This is a four-storied building where each floor has a separate exhibition of the arm forces of Bangladesh such as the military, navy, and air force.

Although most of the things arranged in this museum are artificial, the weapons used in our great liberation war and several tragic events that happened during that time are displayed for the visitors from which a citizen can learn a lot.

I wandered there for about 3 hours. For me these 3 hours were like a journey which helped me to know better about the history of our country and the military forces that have always protected our country from enemies.

How much did you spend for a ticket entry to the museum? Express the price in dollars and Steems.

First I am talking about their ticket policy because there is some variety in tickets to enter. The ticket price has been kept lowest for the common citizens of Bangladesh. Moreover, there is a difference in ticket prices for foreign citizens and nationals of SAARC countries. Children below 5 years of age do not need any ticket to enter here. Below I have mentioned the price of all types of tickets.

Ticket	Price USD	Price STEEM
Bangladesh Citizen	0.85 USD	2.95 STEEM
Foreign Citizen	2.56 USD	8.86 STEEM
SAARC Citizen	4.26 USD	14.76 STEEM

Tickets can be purchased both online and offline. I bought two tickets online which means I spent a total of 200 Bdt/1.71$ USD. One can visit here on Wednesdays and any other day of the week except public holidays. I purchased the ticket from their official website.

Which animals or exhibitions you liked more? State your reasons.

The museum had several sections, including the Navy in the underground sector, the Army on the second floor, and the Air Force on the third floor. But the exhibition that captured my soul and mind was the first floor exhibition about the various events of the great independence war of Bangladesh and our freedom fighters.

In this section, the tragic scenes of how our freedom fighters risked their lives to protect their country from the invading forces, the special tools used to defeat the enemies, the event of the 16th December 1971 Victory Day, the day Bangladesh was born, etc. were displayed. Entering this sector will increase a citizen's respect for his country many folds so I like it more.

Share your photos from this trip in detail.

Below I try to add some photos from this trip with short details and important information.

^{This is a painting of our father of nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, who has contributed the most to making our country independent. He is the pride of our Bengali nation, and will remain forever among us.}

^{I read in the book that intellectuals have made a great contribution in gaining independence of my country. These are the great intellectuals who gave us the courage to face the enemy.}

^{It was the first time I saw what it was like inside a warship. This image presents an artificial version of the operator's room of a warship.}

^{These are the portraits of our 8 super heroes. We got rid of the invading forces in less time due to their contribution, because these eight people sacrificed their lives and destroyed the enemy's base at various important points of our country, so they have been given the title of Bir Shreshtha.}

^{This picture is a scene of victory for a Bangali. It took place on 16th December 1971 where the invading forces were admitting defeat. The people of our country were released after being brutally tortured for 9 long months. After this event, an independent state called Bangladesh was born on the pages of history.}
