Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bangladeshi people take part in a rally (Mangal Shobhajatra) in celebration of the Bengali New Year or 'Pohela Boishakh', the first day of the Bengali new year, in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Wearing colorful clothes, they carry masks and different animal floats down a street to manifest the cultural heritage of Bangladesh during the celebration. The Mangal Shobhajatra has been put on the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. 'Pohela Boishakh' falls every year on April 14 in Bangladesh according to the Bengali calendar or Bangla calendar. The day is celebrated across the country while the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) added the Mangal Shobhajatra festival on Pahela Baishakh, among other new items, to the safeguarding intangible cultural heritage list. Moguhal Emperor Akbar introduced the Bangla calendar year and the celebration of Pahela Baishakh, marking the advent of Bengali New Year, which is now considered as an integral part of the Bengali's cultural heritage and tradition.
