This the Naogaon-Rajshahi district border point, from where Google Map started capturing street view |
Science and technologies are illuminating our lives every moment through their deep contribution. With the help of a small and pocket size mobile phone, we are now getting all the necessary information about life.
Digital map is an unparalleled contribution in our life and with its help, it is very easy to find any location or destination. Google is a pioneer in digital mapping technology. Over the time, Google has added many modern features to their map service. Street View is one of their most innovative features. This feature allows people to see their location in 360 degree view. This is Google named, street view.

Lord Liton Bridge on the Little Jamuna river which is also known as Naogaon bridge. |
In 2007, this feature was first introduced in America. In Bangladesh, Google Street View started in 2013 with the help of Bangladesh Government. Later, they started this work across the whole country, including our Naogaon district. Unfortunately, Google only covered a few areas of Naogaon district in their street view in the middle of 2015.

They have entered in Naogaon district from Rajshahi side. It ends-up in Dhaka road, where Bogra and Naogaon district border has started. They only took 360 degree pictures of this path as well as Kusumba Mosque, Balihar Palace, Naogaon City Bypass and Paharpur Vihara. Paharpur Vihara get really deeper views in street view. If you visit this historical place through the Google Street View, you'll feel like you are really there. But two more important places of Naogaon Dubolhati Rajbari and Patisar Kachhari Bari is out of street view. They have covered more places and streets of larger cities like our neighboring Bogra and Rajshahi district. Although we must feel happy that, at-least some of our streets and places are in Google Street View.
